o effectively provide leadership in transforming the
Philippines into a major maritime nation, the Maritime
Industry Authority (MARINA) is now finalizing the priority
programs and projects under the 10-year Maritime
Industry Development Program (MIDP) — a major
component of the MARINA’s 14-point agenda for 2018.
MARINA Planning and Policy Service (PPS) Director
Emmanuel Carpio said the formulation of the MIDP is
pursuant to Presidential Decree No. 474 wherein the MARINA is created
and mandated to prepare a maritime industry development plan to
address all the key concerns of the maritime sector in the country.
“While it may be true that we do have plans in the past, those are either
short or indefinite plans that do not sufficiently reflect the mandate
of the MARINA as maritime administration. As part of it, we have to
commit and adhere by its mandate pursuant to the objectives of its
creation, which is to prepare and annually update a ten-year maritime
industry development program that contains a rational and integrated
development of the maritime industry." MARINA-PPS Director Carpio said.
The MARINA technical working groups reviewed and finalized the
priority programs and projects, with detailed results frameworks
highlighting the impacts, indicators, and target outcomes relative to:
the planned establishment of the maritime industrial hub, the MARINA’s
role in the development of the Philippine nautical system as well as
MARINA to finalize
10-year maritime
industry roadmap
