so what does these people on ship do everyday? do mapping/routing? do maintenance? flyfishing? they'll be working everyday as long as their sailing right?

the only seafarer's life i know is what i see in pirate movies.. man the steering, man the canon, pull sails, do the sextant thing, man the bird nest with telescopic monocular... LAND AHOY!

i think ALAM is part of petronas, right? same as MISC.. is it?

destroyer, u know a lecturer name hanim zainal there? what subject she teach eh?

is there temporary kind of jobs available in this area? like a few days/weeks in sea, moderate pay, low qualifications (in term of less paper work/requirement just to be on ship). plan to introduce my lil bro to give a try. seaman book seems easy to get, what a seaman book holder can do?

ok, thx destroyer, linuxskate.
passport, of course, unavoidable.. about modular course, which place carry it out? ALAM? what is the rough estimate cost / number of modules enough to enable one to be on ship?

plan to get rid of my bro and ask to pay my money back later
