Amid alleged human smuggling at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA), Senator Raffy Tulfo on Monday said there could be a turf war going on there among concerned government agencies.
"I believe ito po ay away ng MIAA , ng [Bureau of] Immigration, ng [Bureau of] Customs, ng [Bureau of] Quarantine, at kung ano pang mga awtoridad ng airport, away 'to ng turf, nagkabukulan," Tulfo said in his opening statement Monday at a Senate blue ribbon committee hearing.
"Si Colonel Robles ay tumawag sa isa pang tao para kumunsulta at sa pagpapasahan ng tawagan, nakalipad ang eroplano. Pero Colonel Rhoderick Campo knows better na hindi niya dapat tinatawagan si Robles. Ang dapat ginawa — alam ito ni Campo — ay tumawag siya agad sa tower at 'yung tower ay tatawag kay Major General Ricardo Banayat," Tulfo said.
