A TOP official of the Federation of Philippine Industries (FPI) lauded the City Government of Davao for its relentless efforts against smuggling that led to the confiscation of some P12.6 million worth of fake cigarettes in what seemed to be the biggest enforcement raid ever in the “country’s history” involving tobacco products conducted on December 3 to 4, 2015.
In his letter to City Mayor Rodrigo Duterte, Jesus Lim Arranza, chair of FPI and Fight Illicit Trade Coalition, cited the city as a model for safety and compliance with laws and regulations.
