It adds that to reduce the inconvenience experienced with the unpredictability of the M.V. Emprendedora, the following measures will be implemented to ensure that cargo services are adequately facilitated:
- Accessing the Cargo Services
a. A cargo office will be setup at the Cruise Ship Complex to facilitate making appointments for bulk cargo services on the MV Emprendedora as well as a seating area for customers waiting to collect their vehicles.
b. Based on the appointment schedule, any items to be loaded onto flatbeds will be done directly in the area between berths 3 & 4.
c. Given the current constraints, the recommended method of cargo transfer is via trucks below the 10-ton weight limit.
d. All other cargo services can be accessed at the Government Shipping Service (G.S.S.) Terminal. - Communications
a. A dedicated mobile number with WhatsApp messaging to allow for effective communication with real time updates will be shared subsequently.
