00:00Some travelers were able to enter the entrance of Batangas Port this weekend.
00:05We will discuss that with the Philippine Ports Authority PMO, Batangas Port Manager Joselito Sinocruz.
00:13Good morning to you, Gaginong Sinocruz.
00:16Good morning to you, Ma'am Susan. Good morning to you, everyone.
00:21Please tell us what is the situation there in Batangas Port.
00:25Are there still queues of vehicles entering the port?
00:29There are still queues.
00:31But we have restored the system.
00:34Some of our fellow countrymen have broken the system.
00:38Especially yesterday, early in the morning.
00:41Now, there are queues, but we have restored the system.
00:45Earlier, you mentioned that the situation has returned to normal.
00:48The heavy traffic is not that heavy anymore?
00:53The system has been restored.
00:56There are still queues of private vehicles.
01:00But the traffic yesterday, the people who were queuing to enter the port,
01:05early in the morning, they left the queues.
01:09That's why it's a bit chaotic.
01:11It's like there's a need for crowd control.
01:14It's like there's a rally.
01:16But around 3 p.m. yesterday, we restored the system.
01:21We have restored the queue system.
01:24There are still a lot of women passing through Batangas Port.
01:28Are there any fully booked, cancelled, or delayed trips to Batangas Port?
01:36That's right.
01:37Most of the people who are fully booked are those who have long trips,
01:41like those who are going to Roblon and Katiklan.
01:44What is the reason for the cancellation or delay of their trips?
01:49They are fully booked.
01:51Those who have long trips, the ship is big, but it's only once a day.
01:56If you are left on this day, you will be able to travel again tomorrow.
02:03How many passengers are you expecting, especially on this day, until Christmas Day?
02:10On this day, we are still expecting more than 20,000.
02:14On Friday, we have 20,000 plus.
02:17On Saturday, we have 25,000 plus.
02:20Yesterday, we had 26,000 plus.
02:22That's how many people came here last night.
02:25As you can see, is the number of passengers enough for all the passengers to board?
02:34If we look at it, it seems like the number of passengers is increasing.
02:40Our ships have shortcomings.
02:44Yesterday, it stopped early in the morning.
02:49There are other ships that are not available.
02:51That's why it was delayed early in the morning.
02:54But when the sun rose, our ships continued to travel.
03:02If you are booked on this day, come here.
03:06Especially if it's a once-a-day trip, you will be left behind.
03:10Anyway, thank you very much.
03:11Philippine Ports Authority, PMO, Batangas Port Manager, Hostel Ito, Sino Cruz.
03:16Good morning and Merry Christmas.
