Gov't losing P7-B yearly to David Tan?

MANILA - Who is David Tan? Tan's name came up in one Senate hearing as a big-time rice smuggler. But the Justice Department said NBI agents have so far failed to identify or find Tan. The Customs bureau is also empty-handed. In his first press conference Tuesday, new Customs Commissioner Sunny Sevilla said the efforts against rice smuggling will not be hindered by their inability to arrest Tan. Tan's illegal activities have allegedly cost government seven billion pesos in lost revenues every year. ANC NEWS NOW, January 7, 2013
