  • Police probe Hanjin shipyard worker’s death


    By Tonette Orejas
    Inquirer

    CITY OF SAN FERNANDO, Philippines -- The Zambales police have yet to rule on the death of a Filipino worker at the shipyard of the Hanjin Heavy Industries & Construction Philippines Inc. in Subic, Zambales on Saturday.

    Investigators did not conclude Alvior Palma Jr.’s death as suicide even as the skin on his left forearm bore a marking that said "Huli na lahat [It’s too late].”

    The note was written on Palma’s forearm with a ballpen, said Senior Superintendent Rolando Felix, provincial police director.

    "We have yet to get the results of the autopsy. We haven't talked yet to his live-in partner or his relatives," Felix said.

    The suicide angle still had to be verified, said Armand Arreza, administrator of the Subic Bay Metropolitan Authority, one of the government agencies regulating the labor and operations policies at the Hanjin shipyard.

    Palma, 30, was employed by the Hanjin shipyard’s subcontractor, Zambales Pinas Corp., as a painter. His body was seen floating on the water near the newly assembled ship Lapis berthed on Quay No. 3 of the shipyard at around 2 p.m. Saturday, police said.

    Felix said Palma was last seen by his co-workers at around 6 a.m. that day. He reportedly told them of his problem with his live-in partner.

    Taek-Kyun Yoo, HHICPI general manager for external trade, said the company turned over the investigation to the police.

    Palma was wearing his uniform -- a blue overall, red shirt and rubber shoes -- when fished out of the water, according to workers who alerted the Philippine Daily Inquirer (parent company of INQUIRER.net) about the discovery of the body.

    The last deaths monitored at Hanjin were those of Raldon del Rosario, 19, and Choi Dong Baek, 49, on January 23 and 25, respectively.

    At least 19 workers have died at the shipyard and construction sites since 2007, according to the company's tally.
