May 31, 2020 at 3:16 amHello sir ,
I just want to say dont just … Write and say for seaman , atleast do smthing strictly ..
I sailing as second officer from last 8 month onboard and still there’s no hope for going home what they are doing so may of authorities for us so many rules for us now and we follow all we are doing our jobs as good as we can but now there is no one to help us… Plz If you really care do something put pressure or start some flights or airport which only belongs to us not for other passengers.. Let the government understand the situation of seaman stuck in sea from long time before they started doing anything wrong… I am requesting to you plz do some things for all and also for Indian seafarer where government has forget that we are also humans .. Put some pressure on indian government tell him to start few flights for seafarers only… If 3 to 4 flights a week also can make big change .
