There were no signs of life on the second day of search and rescue operations for 14 Filipinos who went missing following a sea collision in the waters off Mamburao, Occidental Mindoro on Saturday. As this developed, the Philippine Coast Guard is looking at the civil and criminal liabilities of the crewmembers of the Hong Kong-registered M/V Vienna Wood for not helping the 14 Filipinos even as the F/B Liberty 5 was sinking, according to PCG Vice Adm. George Ursabia. “According to them, they just stopped and remained in the area without deploying any small boat to conduct search and rescue or extend assistance to the fishing vessel,” Ursabia said during a virtual presser yesterday.
