Rumors on Commissioner Faeldon’s replacement a hoax -- BOC

MANILA, Jan. 11 (PNA) -- The Bureau of Customs (BOC) on Wednesday denied rumors that Commissioner Nicanor Faeldon has been or will be replaced as head of the bureau.

"There is no truth to rumors that Commissioner Nicanor E. Faeldon has been or will be replaced as head of the Bureau of Customs," it said in a statement.

"BOC denies the rumors as mere fabrications to undermine his outstanding accomplishments in revenue collection, in anti-corruption and in the fight against drugs and merchandise smuggling," the statement added.

The statement is in response to unverified text messages have been circulating that a certain “Victorino”, who is said to be close to the Palace, has been named as Faeldon’s replacement.

"The rumor began to circulate (about Commissioner Faeldon’s possible replacement) after reforms in BOC was felt especially in revenue collection, anti-corruption, and anti-smuggling campaigns," the BOC said.

"This issue has been circulating since last year, and a lot of names have been dropped to take the BOC chief’s post. But they all remained to be mere disinformation," it added.

The bureau is confident that "Faeldon still enjoys the trust and confidence of the leadership," citing the bureau's performance such as the increase in total revenue collection for 2016 that hit 97 percent and 100.2 percent revenue collection for the month of December 2016.

Meanwhile, the bureau asked the public to be cautious against dishonest individuals who are allegedly extorting money from stakeholders.

"We urge the public to be vigilant and not to be victims of these unscrupulous individuals and group said to be part of a scam to extort money from BOC stakeholders," it said.

With this, the BOC also requested the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) to investigate the matter.

"BOC through its intelligence department, has already requested the NBI to investigate this matter," the statement added. (PNA)

John 3:16-18 ESV
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son (Jesus Christ), that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.
