BUSY SUBIC SEAPORT

The MV Sicilia, a Liberian-registered cargo ship plying the China–Manila route, dock​ed on its maiden voyage last Friday​ at the New Container Terminal in Subic Bay Freeport to unload cargo​ from Xiamen​.

Subic, which was recently designated as an extension port of Manila, now draws a higher volume of containerized traffic for Central and Northern Luzon areas.

Together with American President Lines and Wan Hai, SITC which handles the Xiamen-Subic route is the third major shipping line to regularly call on Subic on a weekly basis.
