When numbers speak this loudly, there is no room for doubt.

The Bureau of Customs–NAIA has sent a powerful message to critics and supporters alike: performance—not promises—is the true measure of leadership.

With an impressive ₱24.414 billion collected during the first half of 2026, the Port exceeded its revenue target by a staggering ₱2.470 billion, registering an 11.3 percent surplus. Even more remarkable, BOC-NAIA outperformed its 2025 collection by 16.6 percent, proving that this is not a one-time success but a sustained culture of excellence.

At the center of this achievement stands District Collector Atty. Yasmin O. Mapa, whose disciplined, results-driven leadership has transformed the Port into one of the Bureau’s strongest revenue generators.

Collector Mapa has shown that effective leadership is not measured by publicity or political noise—it is measured by consistent accomplishments. Month after month, BOC-NAIA exceeded its collection targets because its leadership demanded accountability, professionalism, and operational excellence from every level of the organization.

But great victories are never won alone.

Standing shoulder-to-shoulder with Collector Mapa are her dedicated Deputy Collectors, Division Chiefs, Assessment personnel, Examiners, Collection officers, Intelligence operatives, Enforcement teams, and every Customs employee who works tirelessly to ensure lawful trade, efficient cargo processing, and the protection of government revenues.

Their collective effort has turned BOC-NAIA into a high-performing customs port that not only facilitates trade but also safeguards the nation’s economic interests.

This achievement reflects more than impressive financial statistics. Every peso collected helps finance vital government programs, infrastructure projects, healthcare services, education initiatives, and social welfare programs that directly benefit millions of Filipinos.

In an era when public institutions are constantly scrutinized, BOC-NAIA has demonstrated that government agencies can indeed deliver exceptional results through competent leadership, teamwork, and unwavering commitment to public service.

Collector Yasmin O. Mapa and her entire leadership team have set a benchmark worthy of recognition across the Bureau of Customs. Their six-month performance proves that integrity, discipline, and strategic management produce measurable success.

The challenge now is no longer whether BOC-NAIA can sustain this momentum—but how much higher this powerhouse Port can raise the bar before the year ends.

One thing is already certain: under Collector Yasmin O. Mapa’s command, BOC-NAIA is not merely meeting expectations—it is redefining them.
