THE Indian merchant fleet has greatly expanded during the last few years. The growth has been so fast that training facilities have not kept pace with the requirement.The Indian government has yielded to their shipowners’ demand and has now allowed employment of foreign crews on board.However, the approval is limited to nationals of 12 countries only, mainly those located in Eastern Europe, which are popular source of ship officers and crews due to good training and relatively cheaper cost.Now, Pakistan is a country with surplus manpower in all categories of ship crews who are well qualified.Pakistanis are serving a large numbers of foreign ships and an underdeveloped national fleet. Our people are, therefore, constantly going out to serve on foreign ships.Exclusion of Pakistan from the Indian list means an opportunity denied.The government of Pakistan should take the issue with India to open the employment to Pakistani crews also and to facilitate seamen in joining and leaving ships in India
