Hence, significant efforts have been exerted to guarantee the safe and secure movement of people and goods in the civil aviation, maritime, land and rail sectors. However, the increasing demands for security require a proactive posture in order to truly ensure a secured transport environment. The Philippines, being one of the Contracting States of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) as well as of the International Maritime Organization (IMO) is bound to comply with the international standards for ensuring the security of the civil aviation and maritime sectors, respectively. Hence, the Office for Transportation Security (OTS) was created as the single authority to effectively carry out the mandate of securing all modes of transportation systems in the Philippines. In view thereof, formulation, implementation and development of transportation security policies and regulations, in adherence to the international standards set by ICAO and IMO through the Annex 17 and ISPS Code respectively, plays as an integral part in ensuring overall security in the transportation system of the country. For CY 2019, OTS issued eight (8) Memorandum Circulars (MC) and one (1) Transportation Security Regulation. The oversight function of OTS through security surveys, audits and inspections helps in determining the vulnerabilities and provides a macro view on the aspects of security that need to be addressed. For CY 2019, OTS conducted a total of Six hundred twenty-two (622) security inspections, surveys and audits.
