00:00This is the moment of additional protection for the safety and well-being of the Filipino marines.

00:04This is after President Ferdinand R. Marcos, Jr. passed a law

00:10on the Magna Carta for Filipino Seafarers.

00:13Alan Francisco in Detail.

00:19Today, we gather for this ceremonial signing of the Magna Carta for Filipino Seafarers,

00:24an act that transcends what we have seen today, just mere ink and paper.

00:30It's way beyond that.

00:31President Ferdinand R. Marcos, Jr. has already signed the Magna Carta for Filipino Seafarers

00:36under his Law of Protection of Rights and Welfare of Domestic and Overseas Filipino Seafarers.

00:43It is a tribute to their sacrifices, not only a tribute to their sacrifices,

00:48but a call to weave together a future that they can be proud of.

00:54One, where their voices are heard, their rights are upheld,

00:58their families feel the support of a nation that understands the weight of their duty.

01:04President R. Marcos recognized the contribution of the Seafarers,

01:07not only in the economy of the Philippines,

01:09but also in being a bridge that connects the country and the whole world.

01:14President R. Marcos said,

01:15the Filipino sailors are enduring while being dependent on their families.

01:21It is our way of telling our seafarers, we see you, we hear you, and we are here to support you.

01:44Our different perspectives helped us produce this Magna Carta

01:48that encompasses our shared goal to make Filipino seafarers,

01:52the industry, and the country prosper both in domestic and international waters.

01:58At its core, this new law aims to uphold the fundamental rights of our overseas seafarers,

02:04their rights to fair wages, safe working conditions,

02:08and skills and competency development amongst others.

02:18By prohibiting the imposition of recruitment, placement, visa, or other related fees,

02:35we hope to alleviate some of the financial struggles that our seafarers have to go through,

02:42even before they board a vessel to set sail in international waters.
