Former Subic workers file asbestos suit

Yet another case of asbestos-related cancer and suit.

Former warship workers in the dismantled United States Naval Base in Subic will file charges against 24 American firms to seek compensation for damages to their health due to exposure to asbestos products.

Two of the 1,000 victims were identified as Ronnie Ferreras and Cess Olmo, residents of Zambales and Bataan, respectively. Ferreras is presently undergoing treatment at the Ospital ng Olongapo due to a lung-related sickness.
