Negros Navigation: The Tragic Sinking of M/V Don Juan (1980)
Manage episode 432004235 series 3263340
Before the country’s most disastrous ship-related tragedies, the MV Dona Paz incident. Seven years earlier, the tragic sinking of M/V Don Juan in April 1980 at the time was the most disastrous of such incidents in the Philippines.
Negligence played a big role in this tragic accident, various avoidable instances were a factor such as overloading of passengers, and the vessel’s captain playing mahjong moments before the accident causing the lives of 176 people and hundreds of missing people.
At the time, little that our elders knew that the tragedy that happened to M/V Don Juan would be the trigger point of various major incidents to come on what local conspiracy theorists branded as the Romblon Triangle, similar to the Bermuda Triangle in the United States.
Regardless on whether the curse of the Romblon Triangle is there or not, safety measures and attentiveness to the vessel and its surroundings were further highlighted in today's standards.
