SAN FERNANDO, Philippines — President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo is expected to visit the site where the MV Princess of the Stars sank and could meet with relatives of the victims, her press secretary said Tuesday.

The Sulpicio Lines ferry, carrying more than 850 passengers and crew, sank on June 21, at the height of typhoon “Frank” (international codename: Fengshen), off Sibuyan Island in Romblon province, and most of the hundreds killed are still trapped inside the upside down vessel.
