Earlier the same day, Vietnam MRCC received a request for rescue from Panama’s cargo ship Berge Daisen, which was en route from Japan to Singapore. According to the cargo ship’s crew-members, Filipino crewman Jamandron Mafred Tagle, born in 1986, had a crush injury on his right hand while working on the ship which was 123 nautical miles southeast of Nha Trang. The accident caused Jamandron Mafred Tagle’s right hand to bleed a lot.
