ダバオ港（Davao Port）に位置する関税局（Bureau of Customs：以下、BOC）は5月24日、実に5億5380万ペソの徴税を記録し、BOCが現在までに収集した1日の額では最も高い数値となったと発表した。一日で5億ペソ以上の徴税を達成したことは、現在のダバオ市の景況を物語っているといえるだろう。
また、ダバオ港は5月の目標であった17.55億ペソの微税も同じく達成しており、こちらも史上最高額になったそうだ。BOCは2017年においても、2016年の目標に対して20.84%（164億ペソ）超の差をつけて達成している。
ダバオ地方内で戒厳令が実施されているにもかかわらず、ダバオ港に到着する積み荷の量は日々増加しており、ダバオのみではなく、ミンダナオ内の市港からの微税も順調にその額を増やしているとのことだ。関税局のIsidro Lapeña氏も、地方内の各港の微税目標額達成について楽観視している。
Thank you for your continued support of Davao’s portal site “Davaotchi”. “Davaotchi” is an information portal about Davao that has been running for about seven and a half years since September 2016 with the aim of conveying the charms of Davao to Japanese people in Japanese and making them more aware of Davao. Thanks to everyone’s support, we have gained a certain amount of recognition, such as being featured in a magazine, and many people have started to hear the term “Dabaotchi”. On the other hand, we have prioritized the mission of conveying the charms of Davao to as many Japanese people as possible, so there is almost no profitability, and we have allocated the profits generated from other businesses to the site management, but we have no plans for the future. As a result of careful consideration of scalability and development, Davaotchi has decided to recruit supporters who can support Davaotchi in order to better manage the site. We considered charging for the site or introducing a subscription plan, but we wanted to deliver information about Davao to as many people as possible, so we decided to simply ask for support from Davaochi fans first. You can support us using PayPal or credit card (debit card) below. We look forward to your cooperation. See more news articles
