SOME SEAFARERS ARE OCCASIONAL DRUG USER

He is a junior officer, an effervescent young man and full of confidence and hope for his family. Two other seamen with the rank of ratings share the same purpose driven life with the junior officer. At first glance, one might say that they’re really having that purpose driven life because endeavors has taken them to where they are now. Although the three are vivacious, high-spirited and often deployed overseas, the sailors nonchalantly identify themselves as occasional drug users.

I came to know their secret one after the other after taking a cue from Sherlock Holmes and from other detective stories with psychological twist I had read. My investigative instinct paid-off when I had a conversation with them in separate occasions. The junior officer was unflinching in his revelation. He was too honest in his storied life as a drug user. He told me that he started using illegal drugs during his college days and up to the time when he became a seafarer. He likewise confided that his occasional drug use was part of his routine during his month long vacation.

The rating of whom I have had a nice conversation with during in our pirate watch keeping duty while our ship was sailing somewhere in Malacca strait, also opened his sullied life of taking illegal drugs which, according to him was the cause of his being unemployed for years after he and other personnel where fired from their jobs aboard a big cruise ship that sails all over the world. He told me that during that time illegal drug use was prevalent among ship personnel, both men and women.

The other rating was of the same predicament of substance use every time he’s on vacation. Aside from being a cockfighting aficionado this rating spend his time in drug session. The three earns salary good enough to sustain the needs of their family & I think that they have much of it why they waste their dollars to drugs and other vices.

I asked them why they still get employed despite of the fact that they undergo medical, laboratory and psycho test examinations prior to their deployment abroad. I was surprised when told that drugs (methamphetamine hydrochloride or poor man’s cocaine) easily removed or released from the system of the human body within 24 hours. I don’t know if this argument is true but one thing I’m pretty sure that there are seafarers from all over the world that are occasional drug user. I have no intention of defiling the unidentified seafarers but to call the attention of employers, manning agencies & concerned authorities to make a profound assessment of the issue that had been lingering for quite some time now.

WHY LIVING IN AN ORDINARY HOUSE IS HAPPIER THAN THE ONE WITH PALATIAL SPACES

I surmised not everyone will agree that living in an ordinary and simple house is happier than the one with palatial spaces. I admit that this discourse sounds not right to some but before you dig on me and thrown into the world of make - believe or exiled in Pinocchio’s Wonder Land, let me explain first the reasons why I came-up with this conclusion.

Peace of mind
A family or individuals living in an ordinary and simple house have peace of mind than that of persons living in the luxury of a big house or mansion. Simple reason shows that an ordinary and simple house does not attract attention from the prying eyes of burglars, robbers and other uninvited guests who loves to break-in. In a humble living one wouldn’t need to worry about security and tranquility, thus peace of mind transpires.
On the other hand, living in such a huge house or mansion is stressful because one would need to be extra careful by putting high tech security measures to prevent intruders or gun toting men-in-mask from breaking-in. The elaborate, elegant and luxurious design of a huge house or mansion is a magnet for criminals.

Aura, Paranormal Force and Eerie Part and Happy Family
In an ordinary and simple house and considered small in standard, the aura or paranormal force jibes with the structure of the house. Occupants usually feel the ease of belongingness, happiness and abundance of life and spirit. The normal space or area of the house makes the aura more pleasant to the occupants and to visitors alike. And because the house is adequately built and has just enough elbow-room for occupants to move around, it creates no anxiety nor discontent but rather fulfillment of a happy family.
The exact opposite can be described on big houses or mansions because normally its structural design is more on wide spaces, putting more emphasis on large distances from one side to another, from one corner to another, from one floor to another and from one room to another.
Ultimately, the palatial spaces or areas make it more eerie, haunted and strangely terrifying in appearance. Typically, ghosts or wandering spirits inhabit unoccupied and dark parts of the house. The house is like void space, no happiness to speak of. It’s empty.
Here, the occupants usually are busy with their personal lives. They seldom make use of their bonding time or family time. Often, boredom and loneliness strikes them hard confounded by the negative effect of aura or paranormal force created by the palatial spaces. The effect is worse. Family members succumb to drug use or overdose and eventually death by suicide or murder.

RP POLITICIANS CAUSED OF POVERTY, HUNGER AND INSURGENCY

Yes indeed, Filipino politicians and those who are in government service are the cause of poverty, hunger and insurgency in the Philippines. Majority of these politicians belongs to the prominent families of the Philippines who ruled the country since after independence from the American colonizer. The neo-politicos who gained prominence after the EDSA Revolution of 1986 are likewise to blame for the unrelenting debacle of the poor Philippines. The seat of power are divided and passed onto their relatives, to their next of kin, father, mother, brother, sister etc and the cycle continues. These people practically owned almost the entire Philippines. And holy cow, these politicos are educated in the world renown Universities in America and Europe. They have their Master of Arts and doctoral degrees prominently displayed in their personal information. They send their relatives one after the other to the same schools abroad and return to the Philippines to run for public office only to amass wealth as a reward for a stint abroad as students. They are well educated alright, but once they’re in power, they accumulate wealth in so short a time, almost triple the money that they spent as students abroad. They have no regards to the poor masses; all they have in mind is their personal interests on how to remain rich at the expense of the uneducated and poor people of the Philippines. Also, the men in government who are appointed to run the day to day affairs of the country contribute to the problems by using their positions to manipulate, rigged, influence every contract at their own disposal in exchanged for FAT COMMISSIONS. They are not taking chances; every available transaction is considered easy money and must go to their pockets by hook or by crook. Both politicos and the men in government have their mansions, flashy cars, acres of lands and buildings around the country. Their sons and daughters are in private, air conditioned and stately schools and blessed with luxuries. The poor masses lives in small shacks, in squatters, no lands of their own and works as scavengers, tradesmen, mendicants. Their sons and daughters are poorly educated, roaming around town, clawed by pedophiles and sex predators and oftentimes dies in hunger. Others resort to criminality and in the rural areas joins rebel movements. This is SAD REALLY SAD. How I wish that someday the Philippines will be great again, again because once upon a time the Philippines was second to Japan but now the country is a step ahead of Timbuktu, whatever that means.

PHILIPPINE PRESIDENT NOYNOY AQUINO IN HIS FIRST STATE OF THE NATION ADDRESS

After winning the May 2010 Presidential Election, Philippine President Noynoy Aquino will deliver his first State Of The Nation Address or SONA this afternoon 26th of July 2010 (Manila time). According to the Palace officials this year’s SONA will be different than that of the past administrations of President Fidel Ramos and Gloria Macapagal Arroyo who both used gimmicks of presenting two different faces of HUNGER and POVERTY.

The two former presidents who promised to end hunger and poverty made hype out of the poor individuals who were plucked out of the squatter colonies and chosen to act as models in front of TV cameras just to show that they are serious in solving the century old problem of HUNGER and POVERTY.

In 1992, former President Fidel Ramos used a destitute family man of eight as his model of hunger and poverty. Ultimately the man called Mang Pandoy became popular because the then illusionists administration were trumpeting their solution to finally end the sufferings and miseries of millions of people who are poor. After six years of starring role, Mr. Ramos finished his term a notch higher from his previous wealth, influence and power.

But, unfortunately his model of hunger & poverty Mang Pandoy and the millions of poor remained under the threshold of destitution and hopelessness. The hyperbole was just too good to be true and a decade and half later Mang Pandoy died in 2008 at age 71. He was born poor & died poor. Yet, the nation never expects that this political gimmick will try to imitate itself.

For the second time around, the theatrical acts of political propaganda was brought to the fore by no less than former president Gloria Arroyo. This time, new models were presented to portray the country’s hunger & poverty. The models were likewise taken from the squatter colony; three children from three different poor families. The gimmick was elaborate and full of drama. Mrs. Arroyo re-phrased Mr. Ramos of solving hunger & poverty but both of them failed.

It was not only a failure but a total failure of immense proportion in the history of the Philippines. Instead of reducing the incidence of hunger & poverty, the Arroyo administration deliberately caused to inflict more sufferings and miseries to the nation in her 9 years in office. Anomalies, corruptions, killings, social, economic and political degradations were part of the theatrical acts starred by Mrs. Arroyo herself and her allies.

Now that the new administration of President-elect Noynoy Aquino is at the helm, he promised to steer the country’s position towards progress and development; of eradicating corruption to end hunger and poverty. And these are just part of the speech of President Aquino in his first SONA. The President said that his SONA is simple, no actual presentation of individuals that would portray anything about poverty. And that is what the whole nation expects of him; to portray his starring role as the true leader of the Republic of the Philippines.

APPLYING FOR A SEAFARING JOB IS A LONG & TRICKY ROUGH SEA TO HURDLE

Well, practically seafaring job is one of the best professions in the world which offers a lot of great opportunity. And perhaps unequalled, because to join one would be able to experience life at its best: Good salary in US dollars, meet with different nationalities, see various countries and cultures, explore the “seven seas” (or the “5 oceans”) and of course a secure life upon retirement.
These are the reasons why men and women in known countries including the Philippines that supplies great number of seafarers to the world’s shipping industry are queuing-up in manning agencies hoping to land a job at sea. In the archipelagic country like the Philippines, seafaring job is an attractive opportunity because first of all it is free to apply; only that credential and competency are the one strictly required.
Foreign employers represented by manning agencies mostly located in Metro Manila Philippines, are implementing these rules or policies to protect all applicants from paying placement fee and to maintain the high standard of qualification of all seafarers. In this particular issue, it seems that the rules or policies are good and beyond question the fact that it implies favorable advantage to all stakeholders.
Indeed through this long-established system, seafaring jobs continue to grow except that also through this means, under-the-table transaction of applying for a job at sea has long been part of the system and likewise increasing in numbers. And why is it so? The problem can be traced to the air-conditioned offices of manning agencies with people milling around as crewing managers, assistants, secretaries, or even utilities stricken with “emphatic crewing syndrome.”
The syndrome is exacting that the rule run like these: “whom you know, not what you know” “back-up me you,” “protégé,” “patronage,” “close connection” and other forms of “empathic crewing syndrome” the one that “you scratch my back and I will scratch yours.”
This is an open secret in the crewing industry; an exposed and disgusting wide-opened “sea chest” of “emphatic crewing syndrome.” Applicants near the seat of “office power” easily hurdles the quest of getting a job at sea and immediately deployed even without the appropriate credential and competency. Others, who have no connections but qualified are feted to the worst kind of treatment especially RATINGS.
The RATINGS or the lesser mortals in the seafaring industry are the most affected by this kind of ignominy. They are subjected to some kind of immeasurable hopelessness, desperation or failure because applying for a seafaring job is a long & tricky rough sea to hurdle irreparably effected by the “emphatic crewing syndrome.”
