The Bureau of Customs (BOC) met with the Australian Border Force to bolster institutional cooperation in border management and customs enforcement.
The engagement reinforced both agencies’ commitment to strengthening national security through coordinated and adaptive responses to complex transnational risks.
The discussion, headed by Deputy Commissioner Romeo Allan Rosales of the BOC Intelligence Group, underscored the importance of strengthened intelligence exchange, closer operational coordination, and sustained institutional collaboration.
Both sides recognized that enduring partnerships are essential in addressing evolving illicit activities that threaten public safety, legitimate commerce, and government revenues.
This engagement strengthens the BOC’s institutional readiness and cooperation with global border security counterparts, contributing to regional and international security efforts.
Through these partnerships, the Bureau continues to help ensure secure trade, protect the public interest, and uphold its role in safeguarding national borders and economic stability.
