Ipinakita lamang sa sulat na ito ang proseso ng paano magsusumite ang schools ng aplikasyon ng SO at CAV ng kanilang mga estudyante sa online portal ng marina. Wala sa kahit anong parte ng sulat na ito makikitang nabanggit ang timeline na itinakda para sundin ng mga eskwelahan sa pagproseso ng SO, wala ang kaukulang parusa sa mga mapapatunayang lumabag sa nasabing timeline at nagpabaya.

𝗨𝗙𝗦: 𝗛𝗜𝗡𝗗𝗜 𝗦𝗔𝗣𝗔𝗧 𝗔𝗡𝗚 𝗠𝗔𝗬 𝗣𝗥𝗢𝗦𝗘𝗦𝗢 𝗟𝗔𝗡𝗚 — 𝗞𝗔𝗜𝗟𝗔𝗡𝗚𝗔𝗡𝗚 𝗠𝗔𝗬 𝗣𝗔𝗡𝗔𝗡𝗔𝗚𝗨𝗧𝗔𝗡

Natanggap ng 𝗨𝗻𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗙𝗶𝗹𝗶𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗼 𝗦𝗲𝗮𝗳𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗿𝘀 (𝗨𝗙𝗦) ang tugon ng 𝗠𝗔𝗥𝗜𝗡𝗔 kaugnay ng mga isyung aming inilahad sa𝗦𝗲𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗶𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗲 𝗼𝗻 𝗠𝗶𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗸𝗲𝗿𝘀 hinggil sa matagal na pagproseso ng mga 𝗦𝗽𝗲𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗢𝗿𝗱𝗲𝗿 (𝗦.𝗢.) applications ng mga maritime students at graduates.

𝗔𝘆𝗼𝗻 𝘀𝗮 𝗠𝗔𝗥𝗜𝗡𝗔, 𝗮𝗻𝗴 𝗺𝗴𝗮 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘀𝗲𝘀𝗼, 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀, 𝗮𝘁 𝗺𝗴𝗮 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝗱𝗮𝗱 𝗻𝗴 𝗺𝗴𝗮 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝗛𝗶𝗴𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗘𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗜𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗶𝘁𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 (𝗠𝗛𝗘𝗜𝘀) 𝗮𝘆 𝗻𝗮𝗶𝗽𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘄𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗴 𝗻𝗮 𝘂𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗼 𝘀𝗮 𝗸𝗮𝗻𝗶𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗴 𝘂𝗹𝗮𝘁 𝗻𝗮 𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗻𝘂𝗺𝗶𝘁𝗲 𝘀𝗮 𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗴𝗮𝗽𝗮𝗻 𝗻𝗶 𝗦𝗲𝗻. 𝗥𝗮𝗳𝗳𝘆 𝗧𝘂𝗹𝗳𝗼.

Matapos suriin ng 𝗨𝗙𝗦 ang naturang ulat, kinikilala namin na mayroon nang online system, may nakasaad na proseso, may listahan ng requirements, at may itinakdang processing period para sa mga aplikasyon. Inilahad din ng 𝗠𝗔𝗥𝗜𝗡𝗔 na ang mga kumpletong aplikasyon ay maaaring maproseso sa loob ng 𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴 (𝟯) 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗱𝗮𝘆𝘀.

Ngunit malinaw na 𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗱𝗶 𝗶𝘁𝗼 𝗮𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗮𝗻𝗴𝘂𝗻𝗮𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗻𝗴 𝗺𝗴𝗮 𝗲𝘀𝘁𝘂𝗱𝘆𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗻𝗴 𝗹𝘂𝗺𝗮𝗽𝗶𝘁 𝘀𝗮 𝗨𝗙𝗦.

Ang tunay na tanong ay:

𝟭. 𝗞𝘂𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗿𝗮𝘄 𝗮𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗼𝗱 𝗻𝗴 𝗦𝗢 𝗻𝘂𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗻𝗴 𝗠𝗔𝗥𝗜𝗡𝗔 𝗺𝘂𝗹𝗮 𝘀𝗮 𝗽𝗮𝗴𝘀𝘂𝗺𝗶𝘁𝗲 𝘀𝗮 𝗶𝗻𝘆𝗼 𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝗰𝗵𝗼𝗼𝗹 𝗻𝗶𝘁𝗼, 𝗴𝗮𝗮𝗻𝗼 𝗻𝗮𝗺𝗮𝗻 𝗸𝗮𝘁𝗮𝗴𝗮𝗹 𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘁𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗴𝗮 𝗮𝗻𝗴 𝗺𝗴𝗮 𝗱𝗼𝗸𝘂𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗼 𝗻𝗴 𝗺𝗴𝗮 𝗲𝘀𝘁𝘂𝗱𝘆𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗲 𝘀𝗮 𝗲𝘀𝗸𝘄𝗲𝗹𝗮𝗵𝗮𝗻 𝗽𝗮 𝗹𝗮𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗴?

Ito ang mga tanong na patuloy naming itinataas.

Sapagkat para sa 𝗨𝗙𝗦, 𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗱𝗶 𝘀𝗮𝗽𝗮𝘁 𝗻𝗮 𝗺𝗮𝘆 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘀𝗲𝘀𝗼 𝗹𝗮𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝗮 𝗽𝗮𝗽𝗲𝗹.

Hindi sapat na may online system lamang.

Hindi sapat na may advisory lamang.

Ang sukatan ng isang mahusay na sistema ay kung gumagana ito para sa mga taong dapat nitong pagsilbihan.

Nararapat lamang na may malinaw na pananagutan para sa mga nagdudulot ng delay may malinaw na solusyon at sagot para sa mga naaapektuhan ng delay na ito, at may malinaw na mekanismo upang hindi na maulit ang mga problemang matagal nang dinaranas ng ating maritime students.

Malugod naming tinatanggap ang pahayag ng MARINA na magsasagawa ito ng mga meeting sa mga paaralang una ng nasangkot sa isyung ito. At kami ay humihingi ng pahintulot na ang 𝗨𝗙𝗦 ay maisama sa mga meeting na ito. Gayunpaman, higit sa mga meetings, ang inaasahan ng mga estudyante ay 𝗸𝗼𝗻𝗸𝗿𝗲𝘁𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘂𝗹𝘁𝗮, 𝗮𝗴𝗮𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗸𝘀𝘆𝗼𝗻, 𝗮𝘁 𝗽𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗴𝘂𝘁𝗮𝗻 𝗻𝗴 𝗺𝗴𝗮 𝗱𝗮𝗽𝗮𝘁 𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗼𝘁.

𝗣𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗹𝗼𝘆 𝗻𝗮 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗶𝗸𝗶𝗽𝗮𝗴𝘁𝘂𝗹𝘂𝗻𝗴𝗮𝗻 𝗮𝗻𝗴 𝗨𝗙𝗦 𝘀𝗮 𝗹𝗮𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗻𝗴 𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗮𝘂𝘂𝗸𝘂𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗵𝗲𝗻𝘀𝘆𝗮. 𝗡𝗴𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁 𝗽𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗹𝗼𝘆 𝗱𝗶𝗻 𝗻𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝗴𝗶𝗴𝗶𝗶𝘁 𝗻𝗮 𝘄𝗮𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗴 𝗺𝗮𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝘂𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝗴 𝗱𝗮𝗽𝗮𝘁 𝗺𝗮𝘄𝗮𝗹𝗮𝗻 𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝘂𝗻𝗶𝗱𝗮𝗱 𝗱𝗮𝗵𝗶𝗹 𝗹𝗮𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝗮 𝗺𝗮𝗯𝗮𝗴𝗮𝗹, 𝗺𝗮𝗴𝘂𝗹𝗼, 𝗼 𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗱𝗶 𝗺𝗮𝗮𝘆𝗼𝘀 𝗻𝗮 𝗽𝗮𝗴𝗽𝗮𝗽𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗽𝗮𝗱 𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺𝗮.

Ang kinabukasan ng ating mga maritime students ay hindi dapat nakabinbin.

At ang pananagutan ay hindi dapat ipinagpapaliban.
