Sea travel was made more secure, safe and organized for passengers as the Department of Transportation and Communications (DoTC), Philippine Ports Authority (PPA), Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) and the Philippine Coast Guard Auxiliary (PCGA) conducted its yearly Passenger Assistance Center (PAC) in time for the All Souls and All Saints Day.
Dubbed Oplan Undas 2014, the activity gathered hundreds of PAC operatives from various groups to secure and organize the major piers in the country where an influx of sea-going passengers are expected to arrive.
Despite having no pier in its area of responsibility in Cavite, the 125th Squadron pursued with its public service by joining the PAC in CCP Complex, Pasay where MV Sun Cruises docks for loading and unloading of passengers bound for Corregidor, Bataan.
