Maritime Academy of Asia and the Pacific - Part 1

There are approximately 400,000 Filipino seafarers deployed overseas, comprising roughly 30 percent of the global maritime fleet. Tinig ng Marino represents this sector by providing a platform for addressing issues concerning the Philippine maritime industry; particularly the protection and welfare of Filipino seafarers. The show is hosted by no less than Engineer Nelson Ramirez, president of United Seafarers Union and known watchdog of seafarers' issues. He is joined by seasoned broadcaster Annie Rentoy. Tinig ng Marino also dedicates a segment on general safety measures at work and at home. Guest: CDR. Gerlo L.
