BOC thwarts illegal entry of P6-M worth of white onions

The Bureau of Customs (BOC) on Tuesday, June 28, 2022, seized P6 million worth of misdeclared fresh white onions consigned to Silverpop Dry Goods Trading at the Manila International Container Port (MICP) as a fresh wave of anti-smuggling efforts aim to prove the agency's commitment to protecting the country's borders.

Customs Commissioner Rey Leonardo B. Guerrero, who had spoken against attempts to besmirch the reputation of the agency and its officials, said that the operation is proof of the hard work and sacrifice of the BOC.
