✨ The Prestige Soirée.

Calling all stakeholders!!

The Bureau of Customs PH released a draft joint administrative order that seeks to address high costs, port congestion, and inefficient return of empty containers — and is inviting stakeholders to submit position papers to help shape the final version of the policy.

The JAO aims to “promote efficient, transparent, and cost-effective international and logistics, ensure efficient utilization of ports, and facilitate the movement and storage of cargoes.” It pursues four specific policy goals:

* Efficient port utilization
* Transparency in local charges imposed by customs third parties and logistics providers
* Accurate customs valuation
* Controlled temporary admission of containers

This!

Manila is choking on its own — and the crisis is hitting both sea and air simultaneously.

PortCalls takes a deep-dive into the cargo gripping the country's most critical trade gateways: the Manila international container terminals and the Ninoy Aquino International Airport. The report, in three parts, examines how a perfect storm of full depots, an overstretched truck fleet, slow container withdrawal, an inadequate warehouse ecosystem at NAIA, and a Bureau of Customs PH clearance system — the e2M — that is widely considered slow and past its prime, is pushing Philippine supply chains to the breaking point. At least one global technology company has already suspended production of one of its lines. Industry leaders warn others could follow.

Part 1 of our special report investigates the seaport crisis — what's happening at the Manila International Container Terminal and Manila South Harbor, who's pointing fingers at whom, and what the BOC has ordered to break the logjam.
