Great! Best Customs Becomes Trending Topic Number 1

JAKARTA - The positive performance of Customs and Excise is being discussed on social media.

This was marked by the emergence of the hashtag #BeaCukai Best ranked number one trending topic on platform X, Wednesday, May 15.

In addition to the hashtag #BeaCukai Terbaik, in second place followed also the hashtag #KinerjaDJBCPalingOK. The issue raised in the conversation was public appreciation for the performance of Customs and Excise which succeeded in thwarting drug smuggling on several occasions.

In addition, praise was also given to the Minister of Finance Sri Mulyani who acted decisively so that all agencies under her were completely clean.

This is related to the removal of Rahmady Effendi Hutahaean from his position as Head of Purwakarta Customs and Excise for allegedly not submitting the State Administrators Wealth Report properly.

"Mantap Mrs. Sri Mulyani, who is very firm in this matter, immediately remove the head of the Purwakarta rickshaw, it's just getting cleaner and the Performance of the Most OK DJBC," said @zel_yums in his upload on X (formerly Twitter).

Then another success was revealed by the account owner named Diraaa with the address @sukanuget_.

He was grateful for the Customs and Excise collaboration with the police who managed to raid the drug laboratory belonging to the Hydra network in Bali.

Of the four suspects arrested, two are Ukrainian foreigners, and one is Russian, and the other is Indonesian citizen.

"Finally, they also got the Hydra network in Bali, it turns out that they have a drug laboratory. Then this collaboration yields results that satisfy the country and society. #BeaCukai Terbaik, PerformanceDJBCPaling OK," wrote Diraa in his upload.

This is certainly the answer in the midst of strong criticism targeting Customs because it is considered difficult for people who travel in and out of the country.

Export-import procedures as well as regulations regarding luggage, goods sent, or grant goods also received sharp attention after three cases related to Customs and Excise went viral.

However, in reality, this complicated procedure is really needed so that goods from abroad do not just enter without supervision.

This has been proven by the findings of drug smuggling that have been thwarted by the National Police and Customs and Excise.

As happened on Wednesday, May 8, 2024, the police, the Director General of Customs and Excise and PT Pos Indonesia managed to thwart two cases of smuggling ecstasy pills from the Netherlands and Belgium.

At that time, shipments of 18,259 ecstasy pills weighing 9.6 kilograms from Belgium arrived at the Pasar Baru Post Office, Jakarta on April 5, 2024, were successfully secured.

Meanwhile, in the second case, the authorities thwarted the smuggling of 2,013 ecstasy pills weighing 1.06 kilograms from the Netherlands which arrived at the Pasar Baru Post Office, Jakarta on April 22, 2024.

"It's cool, the Most OK DJBC Performance team, can dismantle the distribution of tens of thousands of illegal drugs, and this is proof that its performance actively participates in law enforcement cases in our country," wrote @itsmypilllowcat.
