MANILA,
Philippines — Representatives from the Association of Southeast Asian Nations
(ASEAN) have chosen Bureau of Customs deputy commissioner Caridad Manarang as
the new ASEAN Single Window (ASW) steering committee chairman to supervise its
forthcoming projects and activities.
ASW is
a component of the progressive schemes on customs development shared by nations
within the ASEAN perimeter of responsibility. Its role is the formulation and
implementation of rules and procedures for trade facilitation.
ASEAN
representatives meet regularly to brief their counterparts on the business
arrangements on the adoption of their chosen agenda.
Activities
and work program of the ASW steering committee are tackled as proposed by the
ASEAN secretariat and thresh out the terms of reference on regulatory matters,
standardization of data and documentation, business process and work flow and
its application. Other areas of concern are the capacity-building program and
pilot projects to be conducted where member countries may discuss the
implementation of pilot projects of ASW with the support of ASEAN dialogue
partners.
The
Philippines being chosen to chair the ASW steering committee is a manifestation
of the confidence of the other ASEAN member states in the capability of the Bureau
of Customs under the leadership of Commissioner Rufino Biazon.
