The search is on for the outstanding Filipino seafarers in the country following its official launch by the Department of Labor and Employment (DoLE).

Labor and Employment Secretary Marianito D. Roque said the Filipino seafarers in the domestic and overseas employment have greatly contributed to the growth and development of the Philippine maritime industry. The DOLE has organized a search committee for the award composed of the Administrator of Philippine Overseas Employment Administration (POEA); Administrator of Overseas Workers Welfare Administration (OWWA); the Director General of Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA); the Executive Director of Maritime Training Council (MTC); the President of the Association of Marine Officers and Seamen’s Union of the Philippines (AMOSUP) and the Chairman of the Joint Manning Group (JMG). The search committee would also select nominees to the IMO Bravery at Sea Award. The search is in line with the declaration of 2010 by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) as the “International Year of the Seafarer,” Roque said.

Records at the POEA showed that there were 323,384 seafarers deployed in 2009 or a growth rate of 26.5 % from the 261,614 figure in 2008. Percentage share of seafarers in the total deployment of OFWs was 25% while the annual average deployment of Filipino seafarers was 256,000. In 2009, deployed Filipino seafarers according to flag of registry were distributed as follows: Panama, 65,585; Bahamas, 39,075; Liberia, 29,754; Singapore, 15,790; Marshall Island, 18,113 and others 155,067. Based on the presence of seafarers according to vessel type, majority of them are in bulk carriers with 62,229 workers closely followed by passenger type vessels with 61,705 seafarers.

Other types of vessels are container (44,276) and tanker (30,459), oil and product tanker (22,366), general cargo (14,695), chemical tanker (17,179), tugboat (10,347) and other type of vessels (60,128).

John 3:16-18 ESV
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son (Jesus Christ), that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.
