Customs
collection is expected to increase using this system
Royal Malaysian
Customs Department will introduce a comprehensive and well-established
electronic system known as the 'Ubiquitous Customs' or U-Customs to replace the
Customs Information System (CIS), which was introduced 17 years ago. U-Customs,
which will be fully implemented by 2016 will conform to international standards
by establishing facilities for trade and customs procedures thoroughly.
U-Customs will be able to reduce leakages in
customs revenues from 18 percent to 15 percent by 2015 as set by the
International Monetary Fund (IMF) for developed countries and 20 percent for
developing countries. Royal Malaysian Customs Department proceeds will increase
by the new system would not only meet the needs and demands of traders and
industry sectors.
The Government has decided that the customs
information system is now considered to be not so effective and efficient even
unable to cope with issues related to revenue leakage, replaced. In addition to
smuggling and commercial fraud, the absence of a robust electronic system has
been identified among the main causes of revenue leakage.
This system enables the latest data related to
shipping information and documents import / export trade is shared by
'authorized partners' via web services. It can also help the process of
auditing and risk rating profile of goods and importers / exporters in the risk
management system.
U-Customs system developed by Malaysian Administrative Modernisation and Management Planning Unit (MAMPU) and still in the development stage.
U-Customs is able to optimize the commercial facility management and security
control border trade easy, efficient and friendly to the cost of money as
evidenced by South Korea. As a result, South Korea's total trade has increased
more than 12 times that of USD11.3 billion in 1974 to USD134.9 billion in 1990.
Customs Affairs that was conducted
semi-automatic or semi ICT in the country causing leakages with ease,
productivity is not being enhanced, increasing the amount of human capital and
revenue not properly collected.
