Pinoy seafarer rescued after suffering a heart attack while at sea

Malaysian authorities recently rescued a Filipino seafarer who suffered a heart attack while at sea, Malaysian news agency Bernama reported.

Faro Navciso Crus, a 52-year-old second engineer on the Japan-registered MV Frontier Voyager, was rushed to the Seri Majung Hospital after his ship was pulled from the Straits of Melaka last November 17, the report said.

His condition was tipped to the Maritime Rescue Coordination Center in Putrajaya at 3:30 a.m. the same day, prompting it to deploy the maritime vessel Nyalau, which has 11 crewmembers.

Maritime Captain Abdul Razak Johan said in a statement that MV Frontier Voyager was en route to Mundra in India when Crus suffered a heart attack. —Rie Takumi/KBK, GMA News
