๐๐๐ฐ๐ข๐ง๐: Last August 27, the Joint Maritime Committee held its monthly meeting at the German Club in Makati. โ
At this session, the Hellenic-ASEAN Business Council, along with fellow committee members from the Philippines-Norway Business Council and several European chambers across the nation, gathered to hear Mr. Joost Mes, a former shipping professional, who imparted his insights on maritime operations.
With 24 years under his belt, Mr. Mes shared his experience in crew management, unpacked seafarer workforce reports, and provided a SWOT analysis of the maritime industry in the Philippines, enriching attendees' understanding of deployment matters and common challenges and opportunities in the sector.
The Council remains determined to broaden its knowledge of the maritime sector and is once again grateful to all who made this session happen.
More to come from the Joint Maritime Committee!๐
