From the Philippine Star (Feb 12): Navy ship bound for Pag-asa Island breaks down
An aging Navy supply ship transporting provisions to Pag-asa Island sailed back to mainland Palawan due to mechanical trouble.
The Navy’s supply and logistic ship BRP Laguna was halfway on her supposed three-day voyage when it suffered mechanical trouble and had to get back to Palawan for repairs.
The ship has yet to dock at the Ulugan Bay in Puerto Princesa City after making a turnaround within the vicinity of Ayungin Shoal in the West Philippine Sea on Wednesday.
“Am very sad when I got word from my staff that PS 501 has to return due to mechanical trouble. Again, this would mean a delay in the delivery of the basic needs of our people out there,” Kalayaan Island Mayor Eugenio Bito-onon Jr. said yesterday.
