‘Corrupt’ BOC dampens trust in govt – lawmaker

THE controversies hounding the Bureau of Customs (BOC), which was recently ranked as the “most corrupt” government agency in a survey, dampened people’s trust on the government but Malacañang said the agency’s leadership is trying to find a quick fix to its problems.

“There are continuing steps to modernize the system and equipment there, even the systems and procedures are being given attention,” Presidential Communications Secretary Herminio Coloma Jr. said on Sunday.
