The most commonly smuggled items at the Dung Quất border gate are petrol and gas, which is transported and traded illegally in the region. The border guard has enhanced its surveillance units to uncover and eliminate criminial activities.
Major Le Van Doan, Second Commanding Officer, Dung Quat Border Post, Quang Ngai Border Guard said: We have improved our information channels and patrol polices to inspect vehicles suspected of smuggling and commercial fraud. We focus on checking petrol?sellers and ships arriving at Dung Quất Harbor.
The Border Post at Dung Quất Harbor is cooperating with customs agencies to exchange information on smuggling and commercial fraud. The two units have mobilized forces to patrol the area, thereby taking control of petrol transport and selling in the region.
Huynh Tan Lap, Secondary Chief, Customs Enforcement Team said: The two units have cooperated on reconnaissance activities. Our aim is to prevent commercial fraud in the Dung Quất border area.
Smuggling and commercial fraud are often skillfully disguised to get through checkpoints. Apart from directly combatting these crimes, there are also programs to raise public awareness on smuggling and illegal activities. Such programs encourage local residents to team up with authorities to denounce and fight crime.
Duong Van Ngo, Commanding Officer, Crime Prevention Unit, Dung Quat Border Post, Quang Ngai Border Guard said: Besides reconnaissance activities, we cooperate with local residents to prevent smuggling and commercial fraud more effectively.
Local customs agencies and the Dung Quất Harbor border guard persist in the fight against smuggling and commercial fraud. Such efforts will help guarantee stability and public order in the region./.
