Technical management was transfered to Manila for reasons of economy due to the ever increasing cost of business in Hong Kong.
Why Manila?
Manila is centrally located within the fast growing SE Asia region has modern communications and is home to the world’s No.1 crew supply source. An abundance of experienced maritime staff is available, and willing and able to participate in the growth of the industry.
Increasing maritime legislation, the implementation of the STCW ’95 revisions and the importance of crew in the management of ships, allies itself to the natural synergy of locating ship management at the crew source. This synergy has proven itself to be very successful.
As an innovating company the VOM Group recognises the emergence of the Philippines as a base for international ship management.
Loyalty and company culture, such an intangible commodity and yet so important a virtue is to be expected from Philippine ship management operations. The VOM Group actively supports and encourages the development of this culture.
