Incidents related to different sea sport activities in Boracay are
deemed necessary to be investigated by the Chief Executive of Malay.
This is because such incidents are already disturbing according to
Council Member Rowen Aguirre.
Aguirre emphasized the necessity in an interview after the
reported successive cases of accidents registered from the month of July to
August in Boracay.
Included were drowning and incidents resulted to the
death of some foreign tourists while activities were held at sea.
According to Aguirre, an ordinance is being implemented
in the island on the operations of helmet diving, parasailing, and others. He said,
according to the ordinance, if it is proven that an establishment was
negligent, aside from Civil Damages the establishment is accountable to the
victim, the Local Government of Malay has the right to suspend the operation of
the establishment.
He added that it would be beneficial at present to
investigate the incidents and inspect all the equipments to find out whether
the equipments still comply with safety standards since the life of an individual
rests on them.
Aguirre asserted that it was necessary for the Chief
Executive to already do what was necessary regarding the issue.
