For an extra P2.63 billion in its budget next year, the Bureau of Immigration (BI) said it would process incoming
The bureau’s pledge is part of its 2024 budget request of P4.24 billion, which is 163 percent more than its budget this year, House Deputy Speaker Ralph Recto said.
Recto said the BI “better deliver on this pledge” as the P2.6 billion increase they are seeking will be for new equipment. Recto also questioned how the new guidelines on departing Filipinos aimed at combating human trafficking might affect this 45-second goal. “Well, this is really not a hindrance to the right to travel. This is a policy of the government that aims at eradicating or stopping the widespread and worsening problem of human trafficking,” Clavano said in an interview on Saturday.
Rodriguez said requiring a traveler to show proof of financial capacity, like a bank statement or proof of income, would also violate the departing passenger’s right to privacy and unjustly subject travelers to the whims of the immigration officer.
