The Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) is continuing its search for a 22-year-old cadet, Marnel Vincent Balaba, who fell overboard the MV Aleson Con Carrier 14 near Calatagan, Batangas.
Balaba, an engine cadet from Misamis Occidental, reportedly fell into the sea last Saturday.
The PCG launched search and rescue operations on Sunday using air and water assets, but these efforts have been unsuccessful thus far.
Previous attempts were hampered by bad weather, and subsequent searches, including an aerial search by the PCG Aviation Force, have also failed to locate the missing cadet.
