The fact that our poverty index is fast growing in absolute terms should scare our economists. Half of the country’s population is now categorized as poor; while 18 million are among the poorest of the poor. Indeed, a ticking social time bomb.

The coastal service is one of many routes identified for financing under the Sustainable Logistics Development Program (SLDP), a DBP facility that seeks to spur greater economic activity by improving the country’s basic infrastructure.

That means establishing a grains "highway", a road-to-Ro Ro terminal system, and a cold chain.
