Ruiz’s death: A wake-up call for Coron tourism officials
A 25-year-old man died after he allegedly stepped on a poisonous sea creature, possibly a stone fish, while on vacation in Coron, Palawan
The victim, Miguel Ruiz, was on vacation with his boyfriend, Travis Millard, in Palawan last week when the incident occurred.
Millard, 24, said he and Ruiz booked a guided tour of the island, where they were supposed to visit several destinations.
“When we got on the boat, they offered us life jackets but didn’t mandate them. They offered us some snorkeling gear but they told us, you know, it would really be a necessary thing for us.
