Dear Ms. Maricel C. Malalad,
Thank you for giving me the links with regards to my first and third requests. Unfortunately, I am still seeking data even just the exact annual number of cruise passengers that came to the Philippines from 2009 up to 2015, even there are no more specific details. I hope you could still help me with this.
Thank You.

Dear Legal Affairs Service,
I am referring to data about homeporting cruise vessels where the passengers embarked and disembark here in Manila. Homeport is where a cruise ship regularly dock, for a period of time, in a port and collect and disembark its passengers to that same port. An example is the Superstar Virgo which made Manila its homeport from March to May 2017. The following links are news articles about homeporting in Manila:
https://news.abs-cbn.com/life/01/16/17/manila-now-a-home-port-for-superstar-virgo-cruise-ship
https://businessmirror.com.ph/2017/10/31/star-cruises-returns-to-manila-homeport-in-march-next-year/
In particular, I need the total number of passengers in the cruise vessels that homeported and the span of time of its homeport, from the year 2009 to 2019.
Thank You.

Hello!
Please have time to see the video on this link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N_W460n-tlE
There's a graph showing the number of cruise passengers from 2011-2013 but the specific number was not labeled. With regards to my request about annual number of cruise passengers, I will now only request for the year 2011 up to 2013.
Thank you.
