Customs Commissioner Isidro Lapeña assigned four new district collectors as part of the bureau’s major reshuffle in several key ports to replace officials who failed to meet the revenue collection targets for two consecutive months.

The Customs chief also swore into office Jessie Cardona as head of BoC’s Account Management Office. Cardona was formerly part of the Anti-Terrorism Council Program Management Center.

“He is one of my trusted men in the public service and I know he will resolve the issues in the Account Management Office in no time,” Lapeña said.

Affected by the reshuffle were Ninoy Aquino International Airport district collector Vincent Philip Maronilla, who was replaced by former Port of Subic district collector Carmeliya Taluzan.

Lawyer Ma. Liza Sebastian from the BoC’s Revenue Collection Monitoring Group replaced Surigao district collector Lilibeth Mangsal, who is now the acting deputy collector for the Port of Cebu.

Lawyer Lyceo Martinez of the Compliance Monitoring Unit was appointed as the new Zamboanga collector, replacing Jesus Balmores, while Arsenia Ilagan, former Naia deputy collector for passenger service, assumed her post as Legazpi district collector, replacing lawyer Ma. Lourdes Mangaoang.

Mangaoang assumed Ilagan’s former role at Naia.

Lapeña clarified that Mangaoang was reassigned to boost revenue collection at the country’s main airport.

“Her assumption in NAIA as deputy collector is not due to poor performance in revenue collection but for her to take a bigger responsibility,” Lapeña added.
