• Some observers think that it stripped the customs administration from its traditional powers including controlling goods, and may be infringement on the national sovereignty, since it will become at the mercy of the these foreign companies which will benefit from significant hard currency revenues between $500 million and $1 billion annually, amounts of money that were entering the public treasury every year, as well as the attitudes and opinions of the relevant international organizations and bodies, in particular the World Customs Organization, the IMF, the World Bank and the World Trade Organization.
