PH’s Port of Amandayehan resumes full operations

Six vessels are operating 24/7.

The Philippines has completed $7.06m-worth (PHP 400m) of upgrades at the Port of Amandayehan in Basey, Samar, marking the resumption of its full operations.

According to the Philippine Ports Authority (PPA), six landing craft tank vessels are operating actively between Tacloban port and Amandayehan port for cargo and passenger movement. The PPA-funded installation of navigational aids has been completed as well.

The upgrade includes $3.53m (PHP 200m) for port expansion, and $1.76m (PHP 100m) each for dredging work, and installation of 14 navigational buoys.

“With a fully operational port, modern navigational systems, and 24/7 maritime services, Amandayehan port is now ready to support economic growth and daily inter-island connectivity in the Visayas region,” PPA said.
