PART 2. EXTEND

1. As a student, do you think bullying is the right attitude towards a person?

No, I thought that this attitude seemly not appropriate toward another person. It may
feel bad to itself someone who are bullied and may lead to have suicide thoughts. The bully
wants you to react. Their goal is to take away your power, make you sad and scared. And if
you show them you are not sad and scared, they will often lose interest and they cannot
take away your power. Remember they want to upset you constantly so you get angry. If
you don’t get angry, the bully will lose their own power.

2. As a ship owner, is it only right that a seafarer should be safe, well-motivated and
inspired when they go on board ship? Why?

This is for the seafarer to work accurately when they know that the working
environment are safe, When they well motivated and inspired to work the comfortability of
the workers to each other are good also. All of this will bring to the workers a good
condition for the ship.

3. As a ship owner, do you think that the present salary rate being provided by sip owner to
the crew is fully enough compensation? Why?

No, As I know the flexibility work of the Filipino workers makes the ship owners
advantage of it. They perform their duties that are not part of their contract and also the
excessive working hours are not paying enough for them. I may say that for us being a
seafarer has a good salary amount and it give us a good of life and provide a good
comfortable well-being.
