I already get the offer letter from SMA, but I wish to find the sponsor company on my own because I heard that shin yang company that sponsor SMA cadet is low in salary.can please give me the list of shipping company that's sponsor nautical studies cadet in Malaysia?

The school told me if we want to be sponsored by shin yang company , they have to apply for us with our 1st sem result. So it takes about 2 sem to get it done before that we was going to paid for our own while we waiting. That's the biggest problem, so I was try to find the company for my own ,hope get sponsor when I just start the course . About 16k for 2 sem not yet included the living fees, is quite a big deal for me.

Hahaha, true man. But I guess I have no choice , I won't able to afford the school fees without the sponsorship.

Hey guys, I'm from Sarawak. I want to work at sea.
I have good SPM result and have good health condition.

Can you guys tell me how to work on sea? (Deck Department)

I know if study DNS at SMA and graduate with flying colour will have higher chances of work. But I heard some people work on ship straight away as an ordinary seaman.

1. DNS, how do you apply for a sponsorship? Is there any interview? Where is the interview? Will I be able to work once I graduate?

2. OS, how to become an OS? From what I know is you must have Basic Training, Security Awareness, TFA, Seaman Card & Book, Medical Report. How high is the working opportunity?

Rather than saying which is better, but please elaborate those Pros & Cons.

This year I'm 20 years old. Been studied at SEGi (E&E course) but got kicked due to unable to pay tuition fees and too late to apply PTPTN. Can you guys imagine, I'm on my 4th semester with CGPA 3.1 but still they kicked without helping me.

I'm kais pagi makan pagi, kais petang makan petang. I have family financial problem. SO, please help me by kindly reply with detail answer.

Thank you for your time.
