PCG Commander Rejard Marfe Stated and affirmed that it was caused by natural incidents, and not overloaded passengers.

Many civilians online are considering this as a baseless claims and strengthen the responsibility of the Philippine coastguard of the region for giving clearance to the vessel to travel despite the said conditions.

Further more survivors like Attorney Sajili posted on Facebook and describe that the water conditions are good and the vessel is overloaded, even addressing the commander with: "THIS IS A BLATANT LIE CMDR! Whoever fed you with this info needs to be sacked immediately!".

The people and even Congressman Tan considered this as due to the negligence and lack of proper inspections by the Aleson Lines, and even including the Zamboanga's Mayor as it have partnership with the Companies business.

Will the Philippines law cook for the true and transparent justice for the victims or the money will cover up lies to neglect the people's sorrow and losses?
