On 14 January, Sun Ferry Services Limited (“Sun Ferry”) has signed the agreement of the “Vessel Subsidy Scheme” (“VSS”) that aims at improving fleet quality and promoting eco-friendly vessels with the Transport Department, to introduce the greener vessels to three of the outlying island ferry routes operating by Sun Ferry, namely, Central – Cheung Chau; Central – Mui Wo and Inter-islands, so as to further enhance the quality of local ferry services and promote the development of greener marine industry in Hong Kong.
According to the VSS, designated outlying island ferry operators shall introduce greener vessels to replace the fleets within ten years.
Sun Ferry is dedicated to working with the government on the launch of the VSS by advancing the introduction of the eco-vessels with greener energy and newer facilities to replace our fleet, to bring the more pleasant sea journey to our passengers as well as contributing to the green transport development in Hong Kong.
