Certificate of Proficiency III/5 (certificate)

Requested from MARINA by S. CRUZ at 11:25 PM on Feb 28, 2023.
Purpose: To help Filipino Seafarers like myself
Date of Coverage: 02/28/2023 - 02/28/2023
Tracking no: #MARINA-493100650548

CRUZ 11:25 PM, Feb 28, 2023 

Hi. I wish for the Maritime Industry Authority to renew the requirements for their COP III/5 application. It has major lapses because if you are already sailing onboard a vessel for that kind of rank despite not having the said COP III/5 certificate. Then it only means that you are already competent in acquiring the certificate from Marina. 

The new rules for getting III/5 certificate is only good if you are starting your career from the scratch. It is not beneficial for the old time seafarers. I hope my message will be heard. Please help the Filipino seafarers not make things hard. Thank you
