No discipline, plain carelessness and the attitude of "wont happen to me" is the motto here in the philippines. ugh!

It's been 24 years since Dona Paz sank and claimed the lives of 4,375 passengers. Yes, it's sad and very unfortunate, But I do hope that these inevitable experiences and tragedies hasn't put any one of us off sailing, commuting or even flying. Statistically speaking, it's still the safest way to travel.
thats why i dont wnna ride ship i prefer plane.. cause my dad has life time treat pass in PAL but then after watching flight 123 japan crash... im afraid to ride a plane again
@ilyzc1 blah!! blah!!! blah!!!...??? whatever!!! chillax don't be so serious maggots...do whatever u want to say, and leave me alone!!!! il say whatver i wanna say...harharhar....
@bharbiekuting why don't YOU leave ilyzc1 alone?! ang bastos BASTOS mo naman. saan ka ba pinalaki, sa KANAL ng kalye?! Ang tanda2 mo na, matuto ka ngang magrespeto ng iba. Act like a professional. Wag mong dalhin yung asal pokpok mo rito. This is an INTELLECTUAL discussion for people with brains and GOOD manners. Grow a brain loser. Go back to the waste dump wer u belong. Just shut up and go fuck yourself, biatch. LOL.
@bharbiekuting who are you to say that to me. people have the freedom of speech here. learn to have some respect. you should be mature enough to know that those kind of words would be very offensive to a young person like me. it won't make you better than anybody. I was just saying something that although quite undesirable and maybe offensive to some, is painful reality here in our country. Face that truth. And please respect my opinion. Cause I sure am respecting that of others.
@bharbiekuting What do people want us to say here? that we're HAPPY the persons in charge did this? that we should be PROUD of the irresponsibility that led to the loss of thousands of life? And now when I say that I feel shame because that's what I and a lot of others here feel I should be given the "F" word? People, say first that you have NEVER felt any form of shame or anger towards the country (esp the authorities for that matter) before you throw stones at others and say offensive words
@bharbiekuting Showing lack of manners by saying dirty language to people who are merely expressing their opinion is just so low. You could be angry, yeah. But saying words such as "fuck you"? That is so high school, and I don't want to go back to that anymore. I've been oppressed by bullies for much of my life and I won't let anyone commit such assaults on me. I'm not stooping down that low for anyone. So cuss if you shall, I'm above you, so I shall be silent.
@bharbiekuting I am not ashamed of my country. I am not ashamed of being a Filipino. I am ashamed FOR my country. What I said was something about what the country should be ashamed of. Am I wrong in saying that the Filipinos should be ashamed of the negligence that led to this disaster? I think not.
@bharbiekuting I am not ashamed of myself, you know why? I am merely expressing a logical opinion opinion based on factual circumstances - an opinion with great and JUSTIFIABLE feelings. The crew was negligent and it took SIXTEEN hours for rescue to arrive. I dare say that the country should be ashamed if it says that it SHOULD NOT be ashamed because of this. I expressed a thought matter-of-factly and DIPLOMATICALLY. Someone as old as you should know not to be rude and boorish.
@bharbiekuting wow, for someone your age you should be acting like the professional that you are most likely to be. for a 27 year old woman you sure lack good manners and right conduct. people like you are why the country should be ashamed. shame on you.
i was only two years old when this happened but i do believe that this tragedy is a lesson well learned for the people of the philippines. it's just too bad that it needed 4000++ souls before the mistakes were realized...
Nope, the sad thing is not a lesson was learned from this tragedy. People are still going about their old ways. "Bahala na". "Pwede na yan". "Ok lang yan". Just a few days ago, a bus fell from the SLEX Skyway which by all means was a preventable accident. Yan ba ang proud to be pinoy? Pweh!
tama........as in right.. you see there are lots of morons that work on our government back then, that's why over 4000 died during Christmas.....i mean....what's good about Christmas that worth risking your life having yourself being a passenger of a overloaded boat........
titanic's claiming of 3;000 lives is nothing compare to this ship whom have claimed 4,000 souls,...but titanic is more famous probably because of its grandeur and was considered as the ship of dreams,..while dona paz well.. a very old vessel with a second hand from japan subjected to overcrowding,...still both tragedies are exceptional,..may all the souls from the titanic and donya paz rest in peace....
MY DEAR FRIENDS & RELATIVES, LET'S PRAY & GIVE THOUGHTS.. FOR A MOMENT. LET US COMMEMORATE THE 23RD DEATH ANNIVERSARY OF MY FATHER & THOSE WHO PERISHED IN THE WORLD'S WORST SEA TRAGEDY OF ALL TIME, THE SINKING OF MV DOÑA PAZ ( DEC. 20, 1987 ). THIS IS NOT ONLY A TIME TO REMEMBER BUT ALSO A TIME TO GIVE HOMAGE TO GOD FOR ALL THE BLESSINGS HE HAS SHOWERED UPON US. THANKS FOR YOUR PRAYERS..
Dahil din sa nangyari, takot nang sumakay ng barko si G. Niedo; mas gugustuhin na raw niyang sumakay ng eroplano pag nagbibiyahe. Tsktsktsk!! Nakakapanghinayang!
Tsk! Napanood ko ito kani kanina lang. Buung-buong naidetalye ang mga diumano ay nangyari. Itong si G. Luthgardo Niedo ay bukod tanging pulis na nakaligtas sa paglubog nitong barko; ang ibang mga pulis at sundalong nakasama niya ay minalas. Si Aludia Bacsal nama'y nagtamo ng pinsala sa kanang mata, pinsalang habambuhay na magpapaalala sa kanya ng malagim na pangyayaring ito sa karagatan.
My parents almost board that ship in its last voyage. But still, many Catbaloganons died on that incident. Now, there is Pieta Park here in Catbalogan City. It was created in honor for those unfortunate souls.
in the worlds list of dreadful maritime disasters, the phils has 4 and 3 of them came from sulpicio lines.. damn! people should not ride on their killing ships
@jonbal2001 what you think philippine ships are deadly why you dont come here and you will see me sank all the luxorius and biggest ship in america or whatever country you are nu gusto mo sapakan tyo pilipino ako im a filipino i can break your face with a little K.O. punck
@jonbal2001 you think all of philippines ship is killing why the england SHIP TITANIC is deadly because they're captain is sleeping when she hits the iceberg TITANIC's captain is sucker than the MV DONA PAZ captain you know that also the titanic's watcher is cause of the deadly 2 hour 40 mins sinking.... YOU KNOW THAT FREAKY BRO
The only reason people don't know about this disaster (even though more people died on this ship than the titanic) is because it happened to 3rd world people who are considered 'less important.'
@TaffyAlpha In a way you got a point but I don't think thats the only reason. Firstly the titanic is Titanic I mean it was the most luxurious and largest ship at that time. Second While many more died in the Dona Paz, bless their souls, than the Titanic it sank in a more bizarre way imagine a large luxury liner sank because it hit an iceberg. And Third, The Dona Paz was a local ship serving only the Philippine waters. Thus, Its not likely that it be a worldwide news. no offense Peace
maski over crowded yan. d parin yan ang kaso. ung kaso e ung collision . ang tanong bakit maski isa sa dalwang barko d lumihis para d magbanggaan. yan ang issue.
Of course your name would not appear in a ship's manifest if you have come aboard without a ticket. Normally, you will be given a boarding pass by the port's authority. After a while, you will be made to sign your name in a manifest, some kind of a passengers' list. This list will be turned over to the next port upon the concerned ship's arrival.
nakakatuwa at nakakalungkot isipin na ang pinas kilala good and bad hay mga filipino tlgang nakalaan sa atin ang popolaridada good and bad.happy and sad.sana puro happy and good nalng kilala ang pinas ano.lahat nalang nasa atin eh.
hey, it logical to think the ship is that overcrowded because it's christmas. Not that you can blame the maritime authorities for not posing limits because of the christmas rush.
sulpicio lines ang may pinaka grabing worst na aksidenting ng yari sa maritime history na break nito ang record ng titanic marami ang namatay na mahigit 4000 katao at karamihan dito ay mga kababayan ko sa leyte muntikan pa mapasama ang lola ko at buti na lang sa kabilang barko siya nakasakay...
yeah that's the safety limit of Dona Paz but philippine people pushed to the limit.. they let passengers in even though they know that dona paz can only hold 2000 people. The ship was overloaded.
@t3hn00bling According to its specs its only allowed to a max 1,518 how come it was able to even load 2000 plus and not capsized before even reaching This tragedy no doubt is still pretty confusing The only thing thats clear is that it sank and many died with it.
sasakay sana kami nito buti nalang that angel is there na may pumigil sa amin na hindi mag tuloy pag sakay nang barkong ito papunta manila, nabaitaan pa namin sa radio nung natutulog kami at nagulat kami lahat, kinabahan kami nang narinig namin sa radio at tumingin ako sa panginoon sabi salamat lord at hindi mo kami pinabayaan
since more than twice as many people died here as on the titanic, maybe the Titanic should be called "The West's Dona Paz"
