Maasin should be planned as a roll-on/roll-off ferry hub for Southern Leyte, not as a container gateway. The provincial capital's national port, barely a couple of minutes from the city centre, runs RoRo sailings by Cokaliong to Cebu, fast-ferry service by Weesam Express, and a daily Santa Clara crossing to Lipata near Surigao across the Bohol Sea. On the cargo side it mainly takes in cement and ships out copra, with no scheduled container line calling. Hinterland reach is by road along the Southern Leyte coast. Shippers with boxes or larger volumes are better served routing through Cebu or Tacloban, then trucking and RoRo-ing the final leg into Maasin. Customs and dangerous-goods matters follow Philippine practice through the authorities at those larger ports.
