No definite rule for Commercial Sea Planes in Boracay

There is no definite policy yet on the operation of commercial sea planes in this resort island.

Malay mayor John Yap said that he has already received notifications from the two different airline companies proposing for the operation of commercial sea planes.

"I already rejected one company because they are using an old sea plane. The other says they are using a modern technology and I have yet to see their presentation," said Yap.

The local government of Malay has rejected the operation of the sea planes because it may pollute the sea in this resort island.

Heherson Alvarez of the Aklan Provincial Environment and Natural Resources Office said a thorough study is still needed in this resort island for the possible operation of commercial sea planes.

"If it is viable, we may also consider other nearby coastal areas for the possibility of the operation of commercial sea planes. A new zoning ordinance maybe required for it," Alvarez said.
