Video Description:
Over 700 people remain missing after the "Princess of the Star" ferry in which they were traveling sank during typhoon Fengshen.
Rescuers are making their way through rough seas to search for missing people as the typhoon continues to rage. With winds of up to 120 miles per hour, Fengshen struck the central and northern Philippines on Saturday. A coast guard rescue ship reached the waters off Sibuyan Island, 300 kilometres south of Manila, where the MV Princess of the Stars sank after running aground.
A hole in the hull was seen as the ferry lay submerged about a kilometer and a half from the shore of Sibuyan. Weather has prevented rescuers from reaching nearby islands where survivors could have drifted.
A U.S. Navy ship from Okinawa, Japan, was expected to arrive early Tuesday near Sibuyan Island south of Manila, where the ferry sank.
Only 38 people had been rescued, including 28 passengers and crew members who came ashore Monday after drifting at sea since Saturday. One survivor recounted the sinking: "There were many children trapped inside the boat. I could hear them wailing before the boat sank," said Renato Lanorias, a crew member of the 23,824-ton ferry who survived by clinging to the rope of a life raft until he hit land, along with three others.
Lanorias said he could not forget the hundreds of bodies floating at sea and the cries for help from the victims as the ship keeled over and went under.
Princess of the Stars, owned by Sulpicio Lines, sailed from Manila at 8 a.m. on Friday on a 22-hour trip to Cebu City with 626 passengers and 121 crewmen. Among the passengers were 31 infants and 20 children.

You'd think after something like this would happen, both would survive. That is so sad ;_; That's so unfortunate and yet it's a beautiful story. Good thing both the man and the dolphin were buried. I hope they find more victims, I can't imagine all the pain this typhoon has caused.

I don't care what color or religion or financial status famous or average Joe or where you live..death is death. It stops for no one. And details that bring to justice of who's responsible is good. Needs to happen. But even then,either way lives were lost and THAT is what matters. I see everyone as humans.Not colors or where there from.Every time I hear of something awful no matter where I ache for them.God Bless. Prayers and sympathy from me in the USA.

Who's to blame? ... ( 4 months ago by alphadeltacharlie)

Who's to blame? Once again, "SAFETY WAS NEGLECTED", and it would take more than an investigation to correct all the guidelines, and the most important of all, "IMPLEMENTATION", 'coz sometimes we filipinos tends to be "SITTING DUCKS" and would sometimes disregard warnings. I'm proud of my roots but, i can't stand with those people who will just washed their hands or dirty linen just to save their neck or post. 'MONEY IS FOR THE RICH, FAMOUS & POWERFUL, WHILE HUNGER IS FOR THE POOR & INNOCENT'
