hi destroyer, im really interested to become a seafarer. My teacher also did recomend us to join ALAM after spm. But ive no idea where to start, i;ll have to wait for spm result came out only can apply right? Hows the interview, i heard its quite difficult to passed right? Im really determined to sailed ^^

how much is the coarse fee for 3years? im quite poor myself.
And summore, if my application is accepted, do i have to fly over to terengganu just for interview. What if i failed the interview, wouldnt it be a waste of time n money. im from sabah btw.
Can give us more tips on the interview part hehe, like what question they would usually ask..i so want to devote my life to the sea

lol, we're in the same boat marsiano i agree..no gals no fun

high-five~

i think credits for all the required subjects is enough, which means C.

so any news regarding ALAM?

Oh man, hopefully not much of a challenge in sabah area here. Im kinda get nervous easily during interview

wow, thnx for sharing ur story TS

woah, never thought seafarer could ever be able to enjoy such entainment im so gonna join now

hmm, sounds scary. Im curious too wat do we have to do. If my mental is strong but not physical. Maybe like i cant do well some of the activities? They will not sack me?

wanna ask, if we take nautical studies. What do we learned from that course? is it like how to predict whether..read the map..temperature..altitude and etc2?
How bout mechanical engineering? study abt electronics and electromagnetism like in form5?..
been thinking and wondering..wnted to choose the best for me XD i like calculations btw if it matter..

woot! looks like marine engineering wud be my best choice gotta prepared hard frm now

Oh my, its march now. SPM rslt is just around the corner. Anymore latest news on alam destroyer? How hard will the written test be? Im gonna revise back all my spm book.

erm wanna ask, after sending the application form. Will alam sent something back for confirmation that they have received it? I just sent mine, but not sure whether they have received it or not. Bcus sometimes shyt happen :/

@Need2know: hi, yup i sent as email attachment, lets hope for good luck together

btw,wanna ask. Since petroleum is not a renewable sources. Then it will 'extinct' someday. Wat will happen to us seafarer

Hi thermo_reseat, are u frm alam too. Nice to meet you
btw, wanna ask if i happen too be accepted by PUO instead of alam. Will my lifestyle, salary and everythg the same as alam graduates? Just curious

wow man, u sure did alot of research on this field. Thanks alot man, u clear most of my doubts. I really hope i could get into alam. Btw, i do come across some of the blogger post smthg bad about alam. Such as this, how true is that i wonder?

hey guys, i just went to the mara carnival this evening. I came across with a Ranaco Group which also provide maritime education include engineering. Here's their official website Ranaco Group The programs offered are also accredited by JPK, MARA, PSMB, DOSH, PETRONAS. So i guess those who failed to enter alam or PUO can still consider this institute as the alternative.

erm, im not very sure myself. But i dnt think they have sponsorship program like alam does. Everythng is selfpaid. Around 15k-20k for full 2 and a half years course. Can get loan from mara or ptptn. Let it be our last resort ya
