Philippine authorities confiscated Thursday, December 4, 2008 assorted Christmas lights which did not pass the quality standard set by the Department of Trade and Industry in Kidapawan City in North Cotabato province. The local DTI office says the lights do not have the Import Commodity Clearance (ICC) requirement. The sub-standard Christmas lights were destroyed in public and officials warn traders and store owners to comply with the DTI requirements. The campaign is headed by the DTI-Kidapawan and the Local Price Coordination Council. Sub-standard Christmas lights are often the cause of fire because of its poor quality.
