PHILIPPINES VACC
Overall
There has been a steady flow of traffic both from local and international pilots. ATC positions are manned occasionally with controllers averaging up to 2 hours per session handling several
traffic during which. We do not expect to see a drastic increase in activity in the following months of January and February however we are forecasting an increase in traffic between March
and May due to school holidays in the Philippines.

SINGAPORE VACC
Overall
Singapore vACC is progressing well with a high demand to join as a resident controller. However, with limited airspace, we are bound to the constraints of the number of available facilities
used for training. At this time, new SOPs from Delivery to Radar is being set in place to allow better coordination and facility management. The expected time for these SOPs to be effective
is February-March.
