All right! And why a government aiming to curb oil smuggling would wait 5 years to do so knowing that every year so much money goes in the organized crime pockets?

he DOF has estimated revenue losses (value-added tax and excise taxes) from smuggled or misdeclared fuel at P26.87 billion (approximately $565.68 million) in 2016 alone.

However, the Asian Development Bank has pegged it at a higher figure of P37.5 billion in losses annually while a study commissioned by the local oil industry estimated foregone revenues at a much higher P43.8 billion per year.

frs the concept that Government IS organized crime or at least a partner to it seems to escape you.... why kill the golden goose when it provides such good "dividends"???
