monitoring group of the Malacañang confirmed that port
services here have improved over the years.
This
was based on the assessment that the monitoring group conducted
on April 22.
Ferdinand
Cui Jr., assistant secretary, head of strategic monitoring
group of Malacañang and Staff Officer Clem Cabugayan
interviewed and made an assessment on Bohol shippers, ambulant
vendors, tricycle drivers, and some of the Local Government

The
team found out that since completion of the port, the
cost of transporting goods- - agricultural and non-agricultural,
by Bohol shippers had decreased by 35 percent.
The
respondents also said that the goods transported through
the port are now less exposed to damage.
They
also said there is now an increased number of passengers
and volume of cargoes as a result of the services of
roll-on and roll-off vessels at the port.
They
also appreciate the positive economic impact brought
about by the RORO facilities.
