03:30What courses do you need to take to join Merchant Navy?

03:34If you pass 10th standard in Merchant Navy, you can join any course

03:42If you pass 10th standard, you can join a course called GP Rating

03:50What is there in that course?

03:51General purpose is to help the ship

03:58You can do GP Rating for that

04:01You can do it only if you pass SSLC

04:03If you want to be in the ship as an officer, you need to complete 2nd P.U

04:11After completing 2nd P.U, we have 2 options

04:15Either we can go for technical or we can choose navigation

04:21If we want to go for technical, we need to choose engineering

04:26For that, we need to do Marine Engineering course for 4 years

04:31After that, if we do pre-sea training for 1 year, we get a license called CDC

04:37After that, we are fit to sail in the sea

04:41If we want to sail in the navigation department, we can do B.Sc. Nautical Science or Diploma in Nautical Science

04:48We can do these 2 courses

04:50If we do these courses, we can promote ourselves as an officer in the ship

04:59You studied Science in P.U.C

05:04Yes, I did

05:06Which combination did you take?

05:08I took PCMC

05:10Computer Science with Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics

05:15I studied in Madikeri

05:16I studied in Madikeri School

05:18You studied in Madikeri School

05:20After that, you said Marine Engineering

05:25If you want to join this course, you need to get a C.E.T.

05:28If I get a C.E.T., I can go

05:31If I get a C.E.T., I can get some money from the government

05:35If I get a C.E.T., it will be good

05:39If you want to take a salary in a bank, you need to get a C.E.T.

05:43That's why they respect you

05:46You said Marine Engineering

05:51Where did you get this B.E. course?

05:59In the beginning, there were 2 colleges in the state

06:02But since one college has been discontinued, there is only one college now

06:07Marine Engineering in Mangalore Srinivas College

06:104 years course

06:114 years course

06:13So, the first year course is normal

06:16Yes

06:18What do you learn in this course?

06:21There are topics related to Marine Engineering

06:25There are topics related to technical

06:30There are topics related to navigation

06:33When you go to Mangalore College, do you get a license?

06:37There is no license in Mangalore College

06:38But when you go to other states like Pune, you will get a license for Marine Engineering

06:47But there is no license in Srinivas College in Karnataka

06:50So, after 4 years, you have to study somewhere else for another year

06:55Then you will get a license

06:57You will get a license in Mangalore College, but you have to study somewhere else

07:02So, how do they take you to the sea in this 4 year course?

07:10After completing 3 years, they take us to the shipyard for an internship

07:16We are in the shipyard for 3 months

07:18Do you have to work?

07:20We don't have to work, we can see the experience

07:23Experience

07:25So, in the merchant shops

07:27They take us to see how it is there

07:31That is a 4 year course

07:33Yes

07:35After completing the 4 year course, you said that you have to do something else

07:42Pre-sea training

07:44What do you think is necessary for that?

07:46Since we are in technical, we have a course called GME, Graduate Marine Engineer

07:52In this, they teach us completely about the marine

07:55How to work in the shipyard

07:58They also teach us practical work

07:59We have to sit in the class for 6 months and listen to the lessons

08:04And we have to be in training for another 6 months

08:07In that training, they take us to the shipyards in Goa

08:10Since I did my IMS in Goa, I am in the next shipyard

08:14They take us to the training for 6 months

08:17So, you have done pre-sea training in Goa

08:21You have to do that for 1 year

08:23Yes, 1 year course

08:25After that, you will get certificates

08:26Yes

08:28After that, we will get a document called CDC to go to the sea

08:33What is CDC?

08:35It is called Continuous Discharge Certificate

08:37Only if we have that, we can go to the sea for sailing

08:41You will be eligible to work in the Merchant Navy

08:45Did you get the job when you were in Tarabethi or did you try after that?

08:52In India, there are many good colleges

08:57When they select us, they introduce us to the companies

09:03When we get selected in a company, they take us for admission

09:10How many seats were there in Srinivasa Engineering College?

09:15When I was going there, there were 30 seats

09:20There were 30 seats

09:22Do you think all the 30 people can join now?

09:27Out of the 30, only 10 people have joined completely for Marine Engineering

09:32After that, the remaining 20 people can go to other fields like IT

09:39They can go to other fields

09:41If you look at it, they don't have to go for this only

09:45They can go to other fields

09:46Only if we do it in Srinivasa College, we will get such opportunities

09:52If we do it in other states, it will be difficult to get other opportunities

09:59Even if we do Mechanical Engineering, we can do a year's pre-sea training

10:05Imagine joining a company like Merchant Navy

10:10How will the selection process be?

10:13How will the selection process be?

10:17In Merchant Navy companies, there will be 3 rounds

10:22There will be a computer-based first test

10:25After that, there will be an interview section in the second round

10:28In the third round, there will be a psychometric test

10:31When people join the ship, to know how mentally strong they are

10:37They do a psychometric test

10:39To check their mental strength

10:41To see how mentally strong they are to do this job

10:48They have to leave the house after a month

10:53They have to be in the water

10:55To see how mentally strong they are

10:59They do a psychometric test

11:03After that, do they give you any training?

11:05Who is that company?

11:07The company gives us different types of training

11:13When we come home after work, they give us training

11:18We can go and complete the training

11:21What will you do in the beginning?

11:25At first, I joined as a cadet for 6 months

11:28After 6 months, I became a junior engineer and got promoted

11:32You have to work for 6 months

11:33Yes, 6 months

11:35Do you have to go for an exam?

11:37Yes, I have to go for an exam

11:39When you become a cadet, what do you do?

11:42When we become a cadet, there are 4 engineers in our team

11:47Chief Engineer, 2nd Engineer, 3rd Engineer, 4th Engineer

11:50They mainly take care of the missionaries

11:54We assist them in the cadetship

11:57So, it's like a maintenance, right?

12:00Yes, their engineers do the maintenance

12:03We have to assist them

12:05So, you get a sense of knowledge

12:07Yes, we get to know what we learn in the subjects

12:10We get to do it practically

12:13So, do you learn all these things in engineering?

12:18Yes, all these things

12:20Like how to maintain a ship

12:23Is it related to mechanical engineering?

12:26Yes, it's completely related to mechanical engineering

12:28Machinery, engines, etc.

12:31Yes, machineries, compressors, purifiers

12:34There are 6 machines like this

12:36So, you work there for 6 months as an assistant

12:38Yes

12:40Do you get an exam afterwards?

12:42No, when you become a cadet, there is no exam for a junior engineer

12:45After your experience

12:47After 6 months, they directly promote you as a junior engineer

12:50So, they promote you based on your experience

12:55Or do they give it to everyone?

12:56Yes, they give it to everyone

12:58Usually, they give it to everyone

13:00But since it's a small rank, they don't give it to everyone

13:03After 6 months, they promote you

13:05What do you have to do as a junior engineer?

13:07When you are a junior engineer

13:09They give you responsibilities for small tasks

13:11When you are a cadet

13:13When you have seen a job

13:15When you become a junior engineer

13:17They give you the responsibility to do the same job

13:20So, we have different levels of responsibilities

13:24So, you have different levels of responsibilities

13:26Can you tell us about the different levels of responsibilities?

13:30There are many types of responsibilities

13:32When the goods go from one place to another

13:36There are different types of responsibilities

13:40The first type is called bulk carrier

13:43Bulk carrier is when you have to carry a lot of things

13:46Like wood, stones, etc

13:50So, you have to carry a lot of things

13:52Like a ship

13:54To carry these types of things

13:56You have to carry a bulk carrier

13:58So, you have to carry crude oil

14:00Is that also a part of it?

14:02No, this is a different type of ship

14:04This is called crude oil ship

14:06Specialised ships

14:08You have to carry only oil

14:10That is also a type of ship

14:12Yes, oil carrier

14:14After that, you have containers

14:16Bulk carrier is when you have to carry a lot of things

14:18A large quantity

14:19Yes, a large quantity

14:21In bulk carrier, there are large hatches

14:23In this, we can carry the same type of things

14:30So, construction activities are happening in our country

14:36Yes

14:38So, you have to carry wood too

14:40Yes

14:42When I saw wood in Mangalore

14:44I saw it coming from a shop in Singapore

14:47Wood

14:49Yes, wood

14:51So, one is bulk carrier

14:53The other is crude

14:55Oil carrier

14:57Oil tanker

14:59After that, what else?

15:01After that, you have container ships

15:03In this, you have to carry small things

15:05From one country to another

15:07To carry these things

15:09You have container ships

15:11So, we send foodstuffs to another country

15:13And carry them

15:15Is it in a container?

15:16Yes, foodstuffs

15:18Some of it comes in bulk carrier

15:20But, whatever we need for refrigeration

15:22It comes in a container ship

15:24In a container

15:26There is a refrigeration system

15:28In a container, foodstuffs come

15:30Vegetables, grains, fruits

15:32Whatever is fresh

15:34Comes in a container

15:36Container ships

15:38That is the third category

15:40What else is there?

15:42Row row ships have started

15:44I am currently working in a row row ship

15:46Row row ships

15:48To move vehicles from one place

15:50To another place

15:52Vehicles of high capacity

15:54For agriculture

15:56Move these vehicles

15:58From one place to another

16:00Row row ships

16:02So, tractors also come in this

16:04Yes, yes

16:06And cars

16:08These vehicles

16:10Buses, lorries

16:12As big as those

16:14And some

16:16Ships

16:18To land on them

16:20Yes, yes

16:22In some countries

16:24When we hire a pilot

16:26Pilot means

16:28He knows the place

16:30Which country we are going

16:32He knows the geography

16:34We call him a pilot

16:36In some cases

16:38Pilots come in boats

16:40And join our ship

16:42Sometimes

16:44They come in a helicopter

16:46In row row ships

16:48Helicopter landing facilities

16:50And for some

16:52Warplanes

16:54To carry us

16:56We make these ships

16:58Yes

17:00And aircraft carriers

17:02Yes

17:04Especially in the Navy

17:06Yes, in the Navy

17:08Yes, yes

17:10Helicopters can land

17:12On small warplanes

17:14It will be that far

17:16Yes, it will be

17:18And do you have

17:20Passenger ships?

17:22Yes, yes

17:24In our country

17:26In Norway

17:28In foreign countries

17:30We call it a passenger ship

17:32We call it a passenger ship

17:34All kinds of facilities

17:36Are provided

17:38Passenger ship

17:40Is the Titanic

17:42Yes

17:44It is a big ship

17:46It has sailed

17:48In the distance

17:50It has landed

17:52We think of ships

17:54When we travel

17:56You are a civil engineer

17:58Who else will be there

18:00In the ships

18:02In the ships

18:04We call it a navigation department

18:06The navigators

18:08The navigators

18:10They prepare the charts

18:12And tell us which routes

18:14To go

18:16That is a

18:18Category

18:20These two are important

18:22After this

18:24The cooking department

18:26To prepare the food

18:28There are two stewards

18:30And a mess man

18:32To keep the utensils

18:34All kinds of

18:36Food is prepared

18:39Usually

18:41The ships

18:43Go over the sea

18:45The water

18:47The wind

18:49The rain

18:51Why do you prepare for all this?

18:53When we go for the first time

18:55It is difficult to get there

18:57For three months

18:59We get seasickness

19:01We don't get any food

19:03But

19:05We get experience

19:07And it suits us

19:09In our body

19:11What are the facilities

19:12You get in India?

19:14The first facility

19:16Is

19:18For 183 days

19:20When we are abroad

19:22We come under NRE status

19:24We get zero tax

19:26We don't have to pay

19:28Any tax

19:30Even in India?

19:32That is another facility

19:34What else is there?

19:36When we go to different countries

19:38We can see

19:39Some places

19:41We can't see

19:43For example

19:45In Africa

19:47In Good Hope

19:49They call it

19:51Tabletop Islands

19:53Normal people can't see this

19:55But when we travel

19:57We can see

19:59The places

20:01Near the tabletop islands

20:03That is an idea

20:05What other ideas

20:07Do you have?

20:09Since I am an officer

20:11I am always in a white uniform

20:13So I get

20:15Respect for the ship

20:17That too

20:19If you go to the sea

20:21You have to be in the sea

20:23There are 24 hours of work

20:25What are the shifts?

20:27There are no shifts

20:29If you look at it now

20:3190% of the ships

20:33Are called UMS ships

20:35Unmanned ships

20:36We don't have to

20:38Look out for

20:40Missionaries

20:42If we

20:44Unmanned it

20:46If there is a problem

20:48We get an alarm

20:50You have to go and fix it

20:52We have to fix it

20:54After the alarm

20:56From 8 to 5

20:58We have normal work

21:00After that

21:02We have rest

21:04You have to go

21:06If there is a problem

21:08You have to go

21:10To repair it

21:12We don't have to go

21:14Every day

21:16Since we have 3 engineers

21:18We have to go

21:20Every day

21:22So you have time to rest

21:24Do you have time for entertainment?

21:26We have a lot of

21:28Things to do

21:30In the ship

21:32There are swimming pools

21:34In the ship

21:36There are boats

21:38Playstation

21:40Gaming

21:42If you want to contact your family

21:44Do you have a remote contact?

21:46For remote contact

21:48We have satellite wifi

21:50In all the ships

21:52We don't have speed

21:5410 years ago

21:56We used 2G and 3G

21:58That speed

22:00We can do whatsapp calls

22:02With satellite wifi

22:04We can do it every day

22:06What are the benefits?

22:08This is my favorite topic

22:10We see all the benefits

22:12But no one says

22:14The benefits

22:16To say the benefits

22:18We have to go

22:20When there is a problem

22:22If there is a problem

22:24We have to go

22:26That is the first thing

22:28There are a lot of nature

22:31In the sea

22:33It can be cold

22:34It can be windy

22:36The weather

22:38Changes

22:40Unpredictable

22:42Unpredictable

22:44When this happens

22:46Pitching in the ship

22:48Rolling

22:50We can't sleep

22:52These situations

22:54If we go mentally prepared

22:56We can adjust

22:58Some people

23:00They don't know all this

23:02They join directly

23:04When different investments come

23:06They don't want this

23:08To leave

23:10They think

23:12No matter what

23:14There will be some difficulties

23:16We have to be aware of that

23:18Yes

23:20We have to leave the family

23:22For a long time

23:24For example

23:26If we want to come to Europe

23:28We have to cross the Atlantic Sea

23:30To cross

23:32We need 20-22 days

23:34We have to be

23:36In the sea

23:38To face such situations

23:40Sea sickness

23:42Yes

23:44That can happen

23:46One question

23:48The pirates

23:50Problem

23:52How big is it?

23:54A few years ago

23:56Piracy made a big noise

23:58Because

24:00They hijacked a ship

24:01And took it to their area

24:03And demanded money

24:05For the company

24:07But now

24:09Since we hire armed forces

24:11Two people

24:13Take guns

24:15For our safety

24:17Piracy has reduced

24:19Armed guards are still there

24:21Yes

24:23When the pirates leave

24:25Armed guards come to our ship

24:27How is it in Vethanashrini?

24:29In Merchant Navy

24:31It depends on the company

24:33It changes

24:35The companies give money

24:37When we join

24:39It starts from 35,000

24:41For the captain

24:43It goes up to 15,00,000

24:45They are

24:47The most important

24:49Yes

24:51The captain

24:53Is in charge of the ship

24:55He is the top

24:57It goes up to 15,00,000

24:59It goes on different ships

25:01In the gas carrier

25:03The gas

25:05Since it has to be in the same environment

25:07That's why we are in Vethanashrini

25:09So you get more in Vethanashrini

25:11Yes

25:13And the expenses

25:15Do they pay for everything?

25:17Yes

25:19After we leave

25:21The flight tickets

25:23The charges

25:25The food

25:27They pay for everything

25:29When we are on the ship

25:31The company pays for everything

25:33If there is any health issue

25:35Are there any doctors?

25:37If there is any health issue

25:39If you look at it

25:41As a minor health issue

25:43The chief officer

25:45Or the second officer

25:47They do medical first aid training

25:49They give medicine for general health issues

25:51In case

25:53If there is a major health issue

25:55When we go to the port

25:57We can visit the doctor

25:59If there is a serious health issue

26:01They do helicopter lifting

26:03Yes, there is a chance

26:05Everything is ready

26:07If you know the company

26:09They will come and take you

26:11But for you

26:13The first aid kit

26:15Is on the ship

26:17How does it feel

26:19How many years have you been on the ship?

26:21I started sailing

26:23And it's been 3 years

26:25It's a good experience

26:26Just like how we were at home during covid

26:29The same experience is continuing

26:31On the ship

26:33And there is a chance to read

26:35Yes, there is a chance to read

26:37Libraries are also on the ship

26:39If we don't know something

26:41We can learn about it

26:43There are library facilities

26:45How does it feel to work

26:47On the merchant navel?

26:49It's a good field

26:51Because

26:53We go to different countries

26:54Tax free

26:56In India

26:58When we see such things

27:00It's a good thing

27:02What would you like to say

27:04To the young people

27:06If they choose this course

27:08They should go in the right direction

27:10Because

27:12If they join a good college

27:14They won't get a job

27:16If they don't get a job

27:18They should go to these agents

27:21These agents

27:22Will charge you

27:24A service charge

27:26They will ask for a lot of money

27:28If you look at it currently

27:30They will charge you

27:32From 3 lakhs to 5 lakhs

27:34If you want to go to the merchant navel

27:36You should research

27:38Find a good college

27:40If there is a 100% placement

27:42You can go to that college

27:44And join the merchant navel

27:46What happens is

27:48Many people give money to these agents

27:50They don't even get a job

27:52I have seen such cases

27:54So

27:56For the young people

27:58Who want to join the merchant navel

28:00They should find a good course

28:02And go in the right direction

28:04Recognized colleges are very important

28:06Yes

28:08They are recognized by the government

28:10Yes

28:12You should look at their records

28:14Because

28:16A college gives 100% placement

28:18If we want to join

28:20There is no placement

28:22You should look at the records

28:24If there is a 100% placement

28:26Since many years

28:28If you look at it

28:30You will get a good job

28:32How many job opportunities

28:34Are there in the merchant navel?

28:36In all the countries

28:38There are a lot of job opportunities

28:40But

28:42The company you choose

28:44Should be a good one

28:46Because the orders

28:48Are from good companies

28:50If you are in a good company

28:52You will get a good job

28:54There is a company called

28:56Shipping Corporation of India

28:58Is there anything in that?

29:00Shipping Corporation of India

29:02Is a company belonging to the government

29:04Our economy is growing

29:06Yes

29:08If you look at that

29:10Our business is also increasing

29:12Because of that

29:14The merchant navel
