4,000 people died tragically, boiled into "broth" by boiling seawater, and the worst shipwreck in history was terrible

On December 20, 1987, the shipwreck in the Tabulas Strait in the Philippines was really terrifying. Do you remember the cruise ship Donapaz, which collided with an oil tanker and was wrecked and killed. I heard that only 26 people survived, and the number of dead was three times greater than that of the Titanic! What is going on? Why does such a big incident happen to a seemingly safe cruise ship? I have to talk about this matter today.

To be honest, when I first heard the news, I was shocked beyond words. Can you imagine the despair of those on board, the helplessness and fear of watching your own life pass before your eyes. I heard that the Philippine government sent people to rescue them, but the place was too far away, and the rescue work was difficult.

And then, I read the story of the young father who lost his wife and son in a shipwreck on the Internet, and oh my God, the pain was really heartbreaking. The thought of his helplessness and despair pained me immensely. The incident also caused an uproar on the Internet, and everyone questioned the safety of the cruise ship and the management ability of the shipping company. I also think that there must be something wrong with this shipping company, otherwise how could such a big thing happen?

The shipwreck also made everyone pay attention to the safety of old ships. You think, those boats have been in use for many years, and there will inevitably be safety hazards. Just like the old appliances in our house, there will always be problems after a long time. Some experts have said that it is necessary to strengthen the safety inspection and repair of ships. I think that's right, after all, safety comes first.

Speaking of rescue, I really have to praise the rescuers. They really risked their lives to search and rescue at sea, and that fearless spirit moved me to tears. They are our heroes, but the shipwreck still had a big impact on the Philippine tourism industry. I've heard that a lot of tourists have canceled their trips and are afraid to travel there.

Speaking of which, this accident also made me think about maritime safety regulations. I think we really need to strengthen the development and enforcement of these regulations, otherwise similar tragedies may happen again. We can't afford to let this happen again.

Did you know that the "Donapaz" was originally a Japanese passenger ship called "Himewoo Maru". The ship was transferred and modified many times to become the "Donapaz" as we know it. However, I heard that it was a safety hazard when it was in Japan, but unfortunately this issue has not been paid enough attention. This is really painful, and if it had been detected and solved earlier, perhaps this tragedy could have been averted.

The Sulpicio shipping company, I think they may have been negligent in the repair and renewal of the ship in order to reduce costs. I've even heard from crew members that the safety equipment on board is not complete and the crew's training is insufficient. This is simply a joke on human life! Such a company should really be investigated!

In fact, before the shipwreck, experts questioned the safety of the "Donapaz". However, these doubts have not been taken seriously by the relevant departments. And so happened a tragedy. In the aftermath of the shipwreck, other vessels of the Sulpicio shipping company were also inspected, and some were suspended for rectification. If you know today, why bother in the first place?

I also heard that a father and daughter were also killed in this shipwreck. In order to spend Christmas, they chose the affordable cruise ship "Donapaz", but they suffered such misfortune. In a life-or-death situation, the father hugged his daughter tightly and tried to provide her with the last protection. This kind of fatherly love is really touching! At the same time, it also makes people feel extremely sad.

The shipwreck was a huge psychological trauma for the survivors and their families. Many people may not be able to get out of this shadow for the rest of their lives. We really should give them more care and support so that they can face life again.

Therefore, I think this shipwreck is not only a painful lesson, but also a wake-up call for us. We should cherish life and cherish every moment we spend with our families. When choosing a means of transportation, it is also necessary to pay more attention to safety. After all, you only have one life, so you can't joke about it!
