You can tell a little about a country from what gets smuggled into it. The Uganda Revenue Authority today named the 10 most-smuggled products illegally entering Uganda (usually being smuggled to avoid paying taxes):
- polythene (clear plastic) bags
- mobile phones
- motorcycles
- Bitengi fabrics (not quite sure what these are)
- counterfeit cosmetics products
- fabrics and garments originating from Asia
- rice
- cigarettes
- medical supplies
- precious minerals (most likely being transported out of the Democratic Republic of Congo, formerly known as Zaire, or Sudan)
I wonder what America's list looks like. -Shauen
