ALMA–UA&P CRC Landmark Study Launch

An exclusive press conference and presentation was held t at Shangri-La at the Fort, Bonifacio Global City, led by the Association of Licensed Manning Agencies (ALMA) Maritime Group in partnership with the University of Asia and the Pacific – Center for Research and Communication (UA&P-CRC). The event served as the official launch of the landmark study titled “The Overseas Seafarers’ Industry Profile, Structure, and Impact on the Philippine Economy.”This research is considered the most extensive and data-driven assessment of the Filipino seafaring sector ever conducted. For many years, the contributions of Filipino seafarers have been primarily recognized through their remittances, which support millions of households and play a major role in sustaining national economic stability. However, the study expands this perspective by examining the broader influence of the maritime sector across various economic layers. It highlights how the industry helps generate employment on land and at sea, supports maritime education and training institutions, stimulates growth in port and logistics industries, and contributes to national income and development planning.

Congratulations on 65 Years, AMOSUP!

This milestone celebrates AMOSUP’s unwavering unity, dedicated service, and profound commitment to the Filipino seafarer. We honor the visionary legacy of AMOSUP’s founder, Capt. Gregorio S. Oca, and the steadfast leadership of its President, Dr. Conrado Oca, whose dedication continues to guide AMOSUP’s mission.
