Philippines ferry disaster

MV Princess of Stars, a ferry carrying 850 passengers and crew from Manila to Cebu, capsized two miles from Sibuyan Island in the middle of the Philippine Archipelago on June 22 after sailing into the eye of Typhoon Fengshen. Only 57 survivors were found.

Sulpicio Lines, which operates the line, has had three major accidents since its Doña Paz collided with an oil tanker in 1987, killing about 4,300 people.
