ang mga opisyal ng coast guard

ang mga mga opisyal ng coast guard ang dapat sisihin sa mga accident sa sea,kapag ang mga seaman ang kukuha ng seaman book ang higpit nila samantalang subok sa trainig ang mga international seaman lalo na ang mga passenger seaman.

Kabayan Gising Na!

Ano ba kayo - di nyo ba tinitignan kung sino ang kasalubong? Maging responsible naman kayo. Mahina ba ang inyong mga ulo at katawan? Di nyo ba alam magpatakbo ng barko?
