THE Worldwide Ferry Safety Association (WFSA) is encouraging Filipino maritime students to design an electric passenger ferry for the Pasig River and get a chance to win $5,000 in prize money.

WFSA has opened the 2022-2023 Design Competition for a Safe Affordable Ferry, which will focus on designing an electric passenger ferry for the Pasig River, as a way of reducing congestion and increasing access to residential and commercial areas. This will supplement the existing Pasig River service.
