Sulpicio Lines Tragedy

I seriously thought Sulpicio Lines only carried cargo and some necessary crews and free loaders. I thought they were already banned somehow for being a commercial passenger ship since time immemorial Sulpicio has been notorious for the "abandon-ship" incidents. I'm imagining a rusty hunk of metal begging for retirement. A ship in its given condition, shouldn't have traversed the deadly seas as long as Frank was still present. They felt invisible and seniority played a large part in gaining their confidence.

Now, they're grounded.

I don't know but they've stayed in the business for so long making them one of the pioneers. People still patronize them somehow and I bet they have at least a handful of competent people on board. How come they always manage to gain popularity through their SINKING VESSELS? Are they just notoriously strong headed to not even heed warning signs? Are they blanketed by seniority to double check their facilities and operations? Something is definitely wrong.

It's so wrong that with all the O peso fares roaming about, not one would get a 0 peso fare all expense paid Cruise trip via Sulpicio lines.

It's unfortunate. I hope they fix whatever needs to be fixed; and be accountable to the lives of nearly 800 people still missing at sea.

It's a shame, they've got a good enticing website, pa naman.

It goes beyond BRIBERY and WEAK MARITIME LAWS. The Princess of Stars tragedy is a case of HUMAN SACRIFICE! And this is not the first by Sulpicio Lines.

Ever wonder why after THREE MARITIME ACCIDENTS, the company is still afloat???? And why does this company fond of sailing during bad weather conditions???

Try to look at this angle, INNOCENT HUMAN LIVES are being offered to some DARK FORCES to ensure the company’s business success!

This may sound like a weird plot of a thriller movie BUT there are some people who still PRACTICE “DAGA” (and I’m not talking about pigs and chickens being slaughtered and offered as “ALAY” to the gods). Dig into the SULPICIO owners family background and you might just find some interesting answers!
