Good day!

I would like to request for the following data to support my current research: 

1. Coordinates of Ports and Anchorages in Southern Luzon, Visayas, and Northern Mindanao. 
2. Volume of passenger/cargo and vessel route in the mentioned ports.

The information you will provide will be used for academic and research purposes, specifically for a potential research paper and hopefully extend to a full blown thesis proposal. Thank you for your kind consideration, and I am hoping for your most favorable response.
