Within its ranks, the BOC likewise issued a total of 147 show-cause orders against customs personnel for their noncompliance with existing customs rules and regulations, in which 152 were administratively charged, 20 dismissed, eight suspended and 120 were pending decision at the Department of Justice and the Office of the Ombudsman, the DOF said. The BOC collected a record P630.6 billion in import duties and other taxes last year, although this fell short of the agency's goal due to shrinking imports and a stronger peso. INQ
