2 Pinoy survivors of ill-fated livestock vessel arriving from Japan
Two Filipino survivors from the MV Gulf Livestock 1, Chief Officer Eduardo Sareno and A/B Jay-nel Rosales, are scheduled to arrive in Manila on Saturday, September 19, via Philippine Airlines PR 427 from Narita Airport at 5 p.m.
The survivors were rescued by the Japan Coast Guard on September 3 and September 6, respectively, and were initially confined at a hospital before being transferred to a hotel while awaiting repatriation.
The Philippine Overseas Labor Office in Osaka provided the survivors with regular emotional support, clothing, toiletries, and financial assistance.
Both survivors expressed gratitude for the assistance provided by the Department of Labor and Employment.
The MV Gulf Livestock 1 sank early this month after experiencing engine trouble during a typhoon in the seas of Southern Japan.
The ship was carrying 43 crew members, and the Japan Coast Guard has found no trace of the other missing crew members.
