DTI, may babala sa OFWs na nagpapadala ng Balikbayan box

Binalaan ng Department of Trade and Industry ang publiko lalo na ang mga may kaanak sa ibang bansa na mag-ingat sa mga blacklisted na cargo forwarder.


Ayon kay Atty. Victorio Mario Dimagiba, Director-in-Charge of Philippine Shippers Bureau (PSB) ng DTI, dapat munang tiyakin ng mga overseas Filipino worker (OFW) na accredited ng DTI at PSB ang mga freight forwarders at consolidators bago magpadala ng kanilang Balikbayan boxes.

Dapat aniyang pagdudahan ang mga freight forwarder na nag-aalok ng pinaka-murang door-to-door rates dahil tiyak na wala itong kakayahan para bayaran ang mga ibabiyaheng kargamento.

Binanggit ni Dimagiba na ang mga foreign principals at cargo consolidators sa ibang bansa ay karaniwang may local counterpart sa Pilipinas na accredited ng PSB kung sea cargo forwarder at Civil Aeronautics Authority of the Philippines (CAAP) naman kung air cargo forwarder.

Sa ngayon, may ilan nang forwarders sa bansa ang idineklara ng DTI na blacklisted dahil sa iba't ibang reklamo. Ito'y ang mga sumusunod:

· D' Winner Logistics Phil. Inc (Case No. 2012-09-139- Petition for revocation of Accreditation)
· LCSN Express Movers Inc (Case Nos. 2012-09-135, 2012-10-158, 2012-10-161)

· Transtech Global Phil Inc. (Case No. 2012-09-138)
· Wide wide World Express Corp. (Case No. 2012-09-148)
Inilabas naman ng DTI ang mga local freight forwarders/Philippine agents na walang DTI-PSB accreditation at inirereklamo dahil sa undelivered packages:
· 2GO Express Inc (Case No. 2012-09-134)
