Agriculture Secretary Manny Piñol (left), together with Bureau of Customs Commissioner Isidro Lapeña (center) and Agriculture Undersecretary Ariel Cayanan (right) inspect one of the 17 refrigerated containers containing smuggled onions at the Manila International Container Port on April 23, 2018. A tip that a huge bulk of onion and garlic from China are being smuggled into the country prodded the inspection. The containers, declared to contain apples, were loaded with 30,000 – 35,000 kilograms of onions each. Following the interception, all shipments declared to contain agricultural products are under Alert Status. (Photo by Alan Jay Jacalan/DA-AFID)
