MANILA, Philippines - The Bureau of Customs (BOC) has opened plantilla positions for additional 2,000 employees.
Those who will be hired will fill in the vacant positions in the agency in accordance with the directive of BOC Commissioner Isidro Lapeña to strengthen the agency's operation. Among the vacant positions are in the Administrative Department and intelligence agents. In an interview on the program 'Get it Straight with Daniel Razon', BOC's Dir. Wilkins Villanueva said many of the workers in the agency are servicing on a contractual basis. This is why they have begun the regularization of deserving contract employees.
"There are a lot of them. That's among the changes we are implementing now. We open it now. We have published the openings," Villanueva said. "Others have been contractual workers for more than 15 years now," he added. Director Villanueva assured the public that Comm. Lapeña is doing all he can to implement reforms in the system of the BOC.
"All the reforms he wants are all in the pipeline. This is a long process. Let's not be impatient in supporting the BOC. Because the reform system we will implement is institutional... we will ask for nothing but to stop the graft and corruption in the BOC and increase its revenue collection..," Villanueva said.
