Two shipping companies involved in a Cavite sea mishap on Christmas Eve were ordered suspended by President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo.
Operations of San Nicolas Shipping Lines and the company which owns fishing vessel "Anatalia" were suspended due to the pending investigation of the accident, Cabinet Secretary Silvestre Bello III said.
The order was issued on Wednesday, Maritime Industry Authority (Marina) administrator Elena Bautista told GMANews.TV in a phone interview.
Marina was only able to suspend “Catalyn B," a wooden motor banca owned by San Nicolas Shipping Lines.
"Catalyn B," which was run by 15 crew members and carried 59 passengers, collided with fishing vessel "Anatalia" four nautical miles off Limbones Island in Cavite at 2:20 a.m. of December 24, authorities said.
The collision left three people dead and 24 missing.
Only the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources has authority over Anatalia, a 369 gross ton fishing vessel, Bautista clarified. -Report from Aie Balagtas See, GMANewsTV
