Results of analyzing the obtained data led the researcher to conclude that the construction of port and procurement of K.M. Rembulan and speed boats had played a role in the increase of merchants or people doing economic activities around the port, resulting in the increase of people’s incomes, as well as in the flow of goods and people as can be seen from the increased number of passengers and quantity and kinds of goods that are transported via Maligano-Raha route since it is easier now for the people to move between the two areas by sea |
