AAMBIS-Owa Party-list Representative Sharon Garin said that the government has been losing some P15.6 billion pesos in revenue annually in the illegal smuggling operations of tobacco products. Garin filed House Resolution 1542 directing the House committee on ways and means to conduct an inquiry to ensure that the government properly collects the revenues from tobacco products.
