  This is a very good response to Bawuliar for saying he will make sure taxes on goods and services from ports and harbors are quantified in local currency when he knows for sure these are done in cedis . That useless man won't tackle the economy and stop wasting our ears on needless campaign.

  Nobody says that we pay dollars for customs duties but the valuation in dollars is the cause of the high customs duties.That's what people are talking.Even shipping lines calculate their charges in dollars but we pay in cedis.These are the major factors that increase duties,charges,levies and taxes at the port.
  GRA should stop this dirty politics and find a better way to solve the problem.
  We know what we go through at the port,the dollarization is killing us,period.Tnx.

  If your vehicle is valued at $10,000 at present in the country of origin but the original value is $30,000, GRA will value it at 50% of the original value which is $15,000. This is robbery of the importer. The whole duty calculation should be changed.
