- Title
Go-Ahead Given for Australian Designed Ferries for Philippines.
- Abstract
The article reports that Sea Transport Solutions (STS) will design and construct 10 medium speed ropax catamarans for Philippines. Dennise Trajano, chairman of Archipelago Philippine Ferry Corp., says that the proposal to order the catamarans is part of the efforts to improve the tourism around the Philippines and address the delayed move of the Philippines government and ferry industry on ferry safety. Trajano adds that the catamarans have an edge on old ferries in terms of fuel efficiency.
