[MAGNETIC.LEVITATION]

naa daghan sa internet sis but mao ni siya ang pinaka-recent ‘Ukay-ukay’ worth P1 million seized in Barangay Mabolo, Cebu City | Sun.Star ..... naglibog na nuon ko what i should do..i love ukay ukay man gud and makatipid ko if i buy from them....

Aw gi dakop na sis kay wala na mo agi sa saktong processo, wala tingale na ni bayad ug tax.
Basaha ug tarong.

According to National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) 7 Director Antonio Pagatpat, the smuggling of used clothing can pose a danger to public health, not to mention degrade the dignity of the Philippines.

Naay word nga "smuggling" sa kana palang daan illegal na. Naa pa gyud oh.

No business permit
He said the businessman has no business permit from the Cebu City Treasurer’s Office.
NBI agents failed to catch Tee, but he will still be charged with violating Republic Act (RA) 4653, or “An Act to Safeguard the Health of the People and Maintain the Dignity of the Nation by Declaring it a National Policy to Prohibit the Commercial Importation of Textile Articles Commonly Known as Used Clothing and Rags.”
“It shall be unlawful for any person, association or corporation to introduce into any point in the Philippines textile articles commonly known as used clothing and rags,” the law reads.
Violators will be fined not less than P200 but not more than P20,000 and face imprisonment of between two and five years.

Walay business permit, natural illegal gyud wala man bayad sa permit.
Ni violate pa gyud siya ug balaud. Samot ka illegal. To be safe, patabang lang kung wala ka masueto about aning mga processo sa atong goberno kay lisod na.

Kana palang daan na definition means importing used clothing for commercial purposes is illegal. That means tanan ukayx2 na nilusot sa ato, wala na gideclare na giimport na cya for sale. So technically, smuggled na cla. Wala na daghan pasikotx2.

Kasagaran ukay-ukay, giregister na as General Merchandise. Nakalusot rana karon kay wala man clear cut law na bawal na siya.

Pareha ni cya sa kato issue sa "Linggam Massage" before, walay law na nagban sa massage although klaro kaayu na dili na cya acceptable sa atong culture so ang gibuhat sa mga officials, naghimo sila sa "Lingam and Yoni Massage Ban Ordinance of the Province of Cebu." para klaro na jud.

Lisod ni kay nahulog naman gud nga acceptable na ang ukay2x. The law mentioned above was enacted pagka 1966 pa. Daghan na supervening events nahitabo after sa enactment sa law.
Congress should revisit, or if ganahan ang council i totally ban or prohibit, hala dakupa, or make an ordinance para i totally ban na gyud ang ukay2x.

Mahipos gyud ang carbon. hehe

Di mana mawala ang law unless naay magpawala pero mao sad dapat isuwat jud kay mangita baya ug lusot mga pinoy. Maski gamay kayu buslot kung malutsan, lusot jud. Magrally jud ang tanan babay sa cebu kung iban na kay wa na cla maukay
Mahipos gyud ang carbon. hehe

Hello istoryans,

I am planning to start an ukay-ukay business unta pero nabasahan na ko na illegal daw siya og maglisod daw ko kuha og permit. Is this true? For all ukay-ukay sellers out there, I hope makatambag mo sa akoa... Nangita pa man ko og location as of now....

Pasensya nasad kay newbie pa ko ani and this will be my first time taking a risk in the business world...

Salamat daan...

Illegal kay wa nay halin ang mga malls!!
