The local
government of Malay gives warning to all motorboats on a Hambil, Romblon to
Boracay route.
This is as
the LGU orders the apprehension of boats coming from other islands,
particularly from Hambil, that will violate the 1 entry-1 exit policy of the
Aklan Provincial Government.
In line with
this, the mentioned boats must pass via the Cagban Port only and are prohibited
to dock at Boracay’s front beach.
The
Philippine Coastguard and the Maritime Police were already instructed of a
strict implementation of the said policy.
Many resort
owners in Boracay have complained about boats picking up passengers at stations
1 and 3.
Meanwhile,
According to Jetty Port Administrator Nieven Maquirang, Aklan Governor
Florencio Miraflores himself will conduct a meeting with barge owners in the
area.
Barges are
also prohibited to dock at Boracay due to the damage it may bring to the corals
in the island.
