MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Samsung is definitely one of the leading brands in smart phones and electronics, but this reputation may have been tarnished after the Bureau of Customs seized a container of television sets that arrived at the Port of Manila.

Although the shipment from South Korea had the proper import documentation, a random check by Customs personnel showed that the items were fake.

An inspector turned on one of the shipped TV sets and lo and behold, it flashed a different brand: SMASNUG!

The shipment has been quarantined for further investigation.

This is a developing story.
