ah tayo naman a nagtatanong-tanong din

play06:45

ano sa mga players natin sa mga

play06:48

stakeholders natin diyan sa On The

play06:50

logistics Chain at saka dito sa ating

play06:52

pantalan and there is parang nakikita

play06:55

natin walang iba pang rason kung bakit

play06:58

iiwan mo sa pantalan yung ah mga

play07:00

kargamentong yan maliban na lang dahil

play07:03

sa mas mura ang binabayaran nila na

play07:04

storage charges diyan sa pantalan as

play07:06

compared doon sa mga private warehouses

play07:09

ano and of course may mga feedback din

play07:11

sa atin from industry players na may mga

play07:15

instances na nabibili nila yyung ah mga

play07:20

bigas from Uh other countries na sa

play07:23

hindi pa masyadong magandang presyo at

play07:25

pagdating dito dahil nga ang nangyayari

play07:27

ngayon bumaba na yung taripa tapos

play07:30

nagsusumikap pang Department of

play07:31

agriculture na tuluyang mapababa pa ang

play07:33

presyo ng bigas hindi na favorable

play07:35

kuminsan ano yung ah disposition or yung

play07:39

pagbebenta nung mga inangkat nilang

play07:41

bigas dahil hindi na hindi na maganda

play07:44

yung presyo ah that's why naghihintay

play07:47

sila na magkaroon ng pagkakataon na

play07:49

sumipa na naman na mag-increase ang

play07:51

demand para sumipa ang presyo at saka

play07:53

doon nila ilalabas yan and having said

play07:56

that yung tanong ho ni Maricel kanina

play07:58

Wala na ho ba tayong kakasuhan is is it

play08:01

simply a matter of them pulling out the

play08:03

the goods and Okay na Well sa atin

play08:05

ngayon as far as PP is concerned Wala

play08:07

naman sa mandate natin Ano na magkaso

play08:10

kung may ah Pwede ba nating ma-consider

play08:12

na holding yan ang sa amin lang sa part

play08:15

ng regulasyon at proseso natin sa

play08:17

pamamahala ng mga pantalan is that after

play08:20

30 Days from the time na clear yan ng

play08:22

Bureau of Customs ah for for release ay

play08:26

ah mino-monitor natin yan and then kung

play08:28

ano man ang laman

play08:30

ng kargamentong yan yan ay ini-endorso

play08:31

natin sa Bureau of Customs so that they

play08:33

can dispose of it properly because under

play08:36

the customs modernization tariff act

play08:38

kapag ang kahit na anong kargamento ay

play08:42

lumampas ng 30 days after clearance by

play08:45
