PHILIPPINES LARGEST SHIPYARD IN SUBIC OLONGAPO HHIC-PHIL Hanjin Heavy Industries’ Subic shipyard in the Philippines faces imminent closure unless a buyer can be found. (Photo courtesy of HHIC Philippines) MANILA — The Philippines’ largest shipyard is set to close with the loss of some 3,500 jobs as financial troubles deepen around its South Korean owner, Hanjin Heavy Industries and Construction. The shipyard is located at the tip of the Redondo peninsula, in sitio Agusuhin, in the province of Zambales, Luzon, Philippines. A large number of Koreans and Romanians who form the higher level management of the shipyard live inside the shipyard, in baracks accommodations (often jocularly called chicken coops). The land here is owned by SBMA – Subic bay metropolitan authority and leased out to HHIC Phil on a 40 year lease. Jeepneys and buses hired to HHIC transport workers daily and run between HHIC shipyard and the two close by towns – Castillejos( and Subic, with many others staying in the farther towns of Olongapo and Barrio Baretto. Most workers come to work at HHIC from other parts of the Philippines and stay in boarding houses in these towns. A large ferry takes workers to and from Olongapo daily. The company also charters 25 buses to transport its workers to and from Olongapo daily. Additionally, two smaller fast ferries owned by HHIC transport a small number of owners representatives from the Hanjin jetty (near All hands beach – SBMA) to the shipyard. Security to access the shipyard remains tight due to high pilferage by workers during the early years of the shipyard. The area is also strategically important to the Philippines armed forces, hence is protected by both – The HHIC Police as well as Philippines armed forces commandos.
