PANO - Ship SAR 272 of the Vietnam Maritime Search and Rescue Coordination Center (Vietnam MRCC) arrived in the port of Vietnam MRCC Region 4 in Nha Trang City, Khanh Hoa province on December 6, taking a Filipino fisherman ashore for treatment.
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.
