OVP provides free ferry service for Cebu frontliners
Vice President Leni Robredo's Office of the Vice President (OVP) and its private partners launched a free ferry service for frontliners in Cebu City on July 9, 2020.
The ferry service operates between Olango Island and mainland Lapu-Lapu City, with adjusted schedules and pick-up points based on frontliner requests.
The OVP is also providing free dormitories for frontliners in Talisay and Mandaue, with plans for another facility in Fuente Osmeña.
Robredo highlighted the importance of collaboration with private groups and individuals in addressing the COVID-19 crisis, drawing from the OVP's experience in Metro Manila.
These initiatives aim to support health workers and other frontliners who face transportation and accommodation challenges.
