The Chinese government has renewed its assurance that the owner and crew members of the Philippine fishing vessel, F/B Gem-Ver1, will be compensated.
Department of Justice Undersecretary Adrian Ferdinand S. Sugay on Tuesday, June 8, said the renewed assurance was conveyed by China’s Bureau of Fisheries during talks hosted by the Philippine Embassy in Beijing last Monday, June 7.
He said the representatives of the owners of the Chinese fishing vessel that collided with the Filipino vessel “undertook to formally inform the owner and crew members of the F/B Gem-Ver1 of their counter-proposal.” The Chinese fishing vessel fled which left the crew of Gem-Ver1 stranded until they got rescued and returned to the Philippines.
