[Title] => NAIA Customs releases play money ‘smuggler’
[Summary] => There’s no law against carrying play money.
A day after airport Customs agents arrested an American national for allegedly trying to smuggle into the country some $10 billion in fake federal reserve notes, they had to release him after finding out that what they seized were wads of harmless play money.
Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) Customs District Collector Celso Templo ordered the release of Oded Avel, a resident of Los Angeles, California.
Templo said he is free to travel. Avel was originally from Israel.

[Title] => NAIA, ports on heightened alert
[Summary] => The Bureau of Customs (BOC) said yesterday security has been heightened at the Ninoy Aquino Airport (NAIA) and other entry points after Japanese intelligence reports showed militants were sending letter bombs to Myanmar’s embassies in the region.

The BOC said all officers had been told "to be on the lookout for any suspicious parcels."
