“Maximizing revenue at the Kasindi border post, North Kivu”
As part of its efforts to boost revenue at the Kasindi border post in North Kivu province, the Directorate General of Customs and Assizes (DGDA/Beni) has recently stepped up its actions. This approach aims to raise awareness among the local population on the importance of contributing to the payment of taxes owed to the State, which is essential to ensure the proper functioning of public services.
During a recent visit to the Kasindi border post, the territorial deputy director of the DGDA, Alain Bavidila, stressed the importance of maximizing revenue in this strategic region of North Kivu. He reminded customs officers and the population of the importance of respecting tax obligations in order to support the economic and social development of the region.
Beyond awareness raising, Alain Bavidila also encouraged the population to report any fraudulent activity to the relevant authorities, particularly with regard to clandestine crossings along the Lubiriha River. This vigilance is essential to combat fraud and ensure fair collection of customs revenues.
The Kasindi border post occupies a strategic position as a major entry point linking the DRC to East African countries. This situation makes it a hub for regional trade and underlines the importance of maximizing customs revenues to support the economic development of the region.
In conclusion, the mobilization of the DGDA and local authorities to strengthen revenue maximization at the Kasindi border post is an important step towards more efficient management of public resources. By raising awareness among the population, strengthening the fight against fraud and ensuring transparent collection of revenues, these efforts will contribute to promoting the economic and social development of North Kivu.
It is essential that citizens and local economic stakeholders understand the importance of contributing to the tax system to ensure a better redistribution of wealth and foster an environment conducive to investment and growth. Maximizing customs revenue at the Kasindi post is a crucial issue for the sustainable development of the region and requires close collaboration between the authorities, the population and economic stakeholders.
By supporting efforts to maximize customs revenue, the inhabitants of Kasindi are actively participating in building a strong economy and a fairer and more prosperous society for all.
