A Filipino fisherman was rescued on New Year's Day Monday by Chinese fishermen after spending eight days adrift in the waters of the West Philippine Sea. When rescued, Rosalon Cayon, 31, a resident of Barangay Liberty in this city, was clinging to a piece of styrofoam while tossed by waves. Canyon said his fishing boat had a hull breach and capsized approximately 40 nautical miles from the Buliluyan coast in Bataraza town, southern Palawan, within the disputed territory.
