02:32The PPA also said that three new X-ray machines were placed here in the terminal of Manila North Port to speed up the inspection.
02:40They also arranged other facilities to help the women, senior citizens and PWDs.

03:08If there are any, you will be able to confirm it.
03:17Susan, a ship is just about to leave here to go to Batangas, Cagayan de Oro and Butuan.
03:22Those behind me are going to Palawan.
