                    [Summary] => Domestic shipping firm Negros Navigation Co., Inc. (Nenaco) faces a bleak financial future after hundreds of port workers staged a picket the other day at the North Harbor in Manila to protest, among others, the alleged non-payment of their arrastre services.


Workers of the North Star Port Development Corp. are demanding that Negros Navigation pay its outstanding dues amounting to millions of pesos arising from stevedoring and arrastre services in order that North Star can pay its financial obligations to its restive workers.

Urranza said the local maritime industry has long been overlooked by the government.
