With the opening of the new school year on June 3, several ports around the country have started recording higher volume of passengers this week, like at the Port of Dapa in Siargao as some the island’s student residents travel to Surigao City for enrolment. The Maritime Industry Authority (MARINA), together with other government agencies, have set up help desks at the ports to assist travelers and tighten security from May 27 to June 8.
