Erratum: Ferry stops off Bohol, safely reaches destination

Our breaking news report bared a misleading headline "Passenger capsizes out off Bohol" on the afternoon of August 4, 2014. We corrected the mistake to read "Ferry stops off Bohol, safely reaches destination" after new information surfaced on the incident.

The MV Super Shuttle RORO 3 operated by Super Shuttle Ferry Company under Asian Marine Transport Corp. was passing the waters of Siquijor and Balicasag Island when it slightly listed, forcing the captain to stop the ship and make the necessary corrective measures.

The Asian Maritime Transport Corporation has clarified that the ship did not experience engine trouble. The vessel was fixed and sailed to Cebu within the same day.

We apologize to the Asian Marine Transport Corporation and its passengers for any damage the report's error has caused.
