Global Maritime Regulatory System

GLOBAL MARITIME REGULATORY SYSTEM

SOURCE:GOOGLE

The International Maritime Organization (IMO), known as the Inter-Governmental Maritime Consultative Organization (IMCO) until 1982,is a specialised agency of the United Nations responsible for regulating shipping. The IMO was established following agreement at a UN conference held in Geneva in 1948 and the IMO came into existence ten years later, meeting for the first time in 1959.Headquartered in London, United Kingdom, the IMO currently has 174 member states and three associate members.

The IMO's primary purpose is to develop and maintain a comprehensive regulatory framework for shipping and its remit today includes safety, environmental concerns, legal matters, technical co-operation, maritime security and the efficiency of shipping. IMO is governed by an assembly of members and is financially administered by a council of members elected from the assembly. The work of IMO is conducted through five committees and these are supported by technical subcommittees. Other UN organisations may observe the proceedings of the IMO. Observer status is granted to qualified non-governmental organisations.

IMO is supported by a permanent secretariat of employees who are representative of the organisation's members. The secretariat is composed of a Secretary-General who is periodically elected by the assembly, and various divisions such as those for marine safety, environmental protection and a conference section.

The four pillars of IMO

-SOLAS (Safety of life at sea)

-STCW ( Standards of training, certification,and watchkeeping)

- MARPOL (Marine pollution)

- MLC (Maritime labor convention)

1. Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS)

SOURCE:GOOGLE

In 1914, the first version of SOLAS was accepted as a response of the sinking of the RMS Titanic. It prescribed numbers of lifeboats and other emergency equipment along with safety procedures, including continuous radio watches. The 1914 treaty never entered into force due to the outbreak of World War I. New versions were adopted in 1929, 1948, 1960, 1974, 1988, 2011, 2015 and 2016.

SOLAS 1974 requires flag states to ensure that ships flagged by them comply with the minimum safety standards in the construction, equipment and operation of merchant ships. The treaty includes articles setting out general obligations, etc., followed by an annex divided into twelve chapters, two new chapters were added in 2016 and 2017. Of these, chapter five (often called 'SOLAS V') is the only one that applies to all vessels on the sea, including private yachts and small craft on local trips as well as to commercial vessels on international passages. Many countries have turned these international requirements into national laws so that anybody on the sea who is in breach of SOLAS V requirements may find themselves subject to legal proceedings.

Chapter I – General Provisions

Surveying the various types of ships and certifying that they meet the requirements of the convention.

Chapter II-1 – Construction – Subdivision and stability, machinery and electrical installations

The subdivision of passenger ships into watertight compartments so that after damage to its hull, a vessel will remain afloat and stable.

Chapter II-2 – Fire protection, fire detection and fire extinction

Fire safety provisions for all ships with detailed measures for passenger ships, cargo ships and tanker.

Chapter III – Life-saving appliances and arrangements

Life-saving appliances and arrangements, including requirements for life boats, rescue boats and life jackets according to type of ship. The specific technical requirements are given in the International Life-Saving Appliance (LSA) Code.

Chapter IV – Radiocommunications

The (GMDSS) requires passenger and cargo ships on international voyages to carry radio equipment, including satellite  (EPIRBs) and  (SARTs).

Chapter V – Safety of navigation

This chapter requires governments to ensure that all vessels are sufficiently and efficiently manned from a safety point of view. It places requirements on all vessels regarding voyage and passage planning, expecting a careful assessment of any proposed voyages by all who put to sea. Every mariner must take account of all potential dangers to navigation, weather forecasts, tidal predictions, the competence of the crew, and all other relevant factors. It also adds an obligation for all vessels' masters to offer assistance to those in distress and controls the use of lifesaving signals with specific requirements regarding danger and distress messages. It is different from the other chapters, which apply to certain classes of commercial shipping, in that these requirements apply to all vessels and their crews, including yachts and private craft, on all voyages and trips including local ones.

Chapter VI – Carriage of Cargoes

Requirements for the stowage and securing of all types of cargo and cargo containers except liquids and gases in bulk.

Chapter VII – Carriage of dangerous goods

Requires the carriage of all kinds of dangerous goods to be in compliance with the International Bulk Chemical Code (IBC Code), The International Code of the Construction and Equipment of Ships Carrying Liquefied Gases in Bulk (IGC Code) and the (IMDG Code).

Chapter VIII – Nuclear ships

Nuclear powered ships are required, particularly concerning radiation hazards, to conform to the Code of Safety for Nuclear Merchant Ships.

Chapter IX – Management for the Safe Operation of Ships

Requires every shipowner and any person or company that has assumed responsibility for a ship to comply with the International Safety Management Code(ISM).

Chapter X – Safety measures for high-speed craft

Makes mandatory the International Code of Safety for High speed craft (HSC Code).

Chapter XI-1 – Special measures to enhance maritime Safety

Requirements relating to organizations responsible for carrying out surveys and inspections, enhanced surveys, the ship identification number scheme, and operational requirements.

Chapter XI-2 – Special measures to enhance maritime security

Includes the International Ship and Port facilities code (ISPS Code). Confirms that the role of the Master in maintaining the security of the ship is not, and cannot be, constrained by the Company, the charterer or any other person. Port facilities must carry out security assessments and develop, implement and review port facility security plans. Controls the delay, detention, restriction, or expulsion of a ship from a port. Requires that ships must have a ship security alert system, as well as detailing other measures and requirements.

Chapter XII – Additional safety measures for bulk carriers

Specific structural requirements for bulk carriers over 150 metres in length.

Chapter XIII - Verification of compliance

Makes mandatory from 1 January 2016 the IMO Member State Audit Scheme.

Chapter XIV - Safety measures for ships operating in polar waters

The chapter makes mandatory, from 1 January 2017, the Introduction and part I-A of the International Code for Ships Operating in Polar Waters (the Polar Code).

2. International Convention on Standards of Training, Certification and Watchkeeping for Seafarers (STCW)

SOURCE:GOOGLE

The 1978 STCW Convention was the first to establish minimum basic requirements on training, certification and watchkeeping for seafarers on an international level. Previously the minimum standards of training, certification and watchkeeping of officers and ratings were established by individual governments, usually without reference to practices in other countries. As a result, minimum standards and procedures varied widely, even though shipping is extremely international by nature.

The Convention prescribes minimum standards relating to training, certification and watchkeeping for seafarers which countries are obliged to meet or exceed.

The four basic STCW courses are as follows:

Personal Safety and Social Responsibilities – This is a classroom-based course that focuses on teaching the essentials of basic safety.

BASIC Fire Prevention and Fire Fighting – This firefighting course covers both practical and theoretical situations that are taught by professional firefighters.

Personal Survival Techniques – A theory and practical course, you will be taught how to abandon ship using life rafts and also how to don life jackets correctly.

Elementary First Aid – A theory and practical course, during this session you will be taught vital basic 1st aid and life savings skills.

Proficiency in Security Awareness - This course is not normally part of basic STCW week; however it is a required course that you must complete prior going to sea. Normally, if you book onto the 4 mandatory courses listed above, your course supplier will include this one for free. It's a half day course that can easily be slotted into your training week, and is designed to explain how security systems work on board.

STCW Convention chapters

Chapter I: General provisions

Chapter II: Master and deck department

Chapter III: Engine department

Chapter IV: Radiocommunication and radio personnel

Chapter V: Special training requirements for personnel on certain types of ships

Chapter VI: Emergency, occupational safety, medical care and survival functions

Chapter VII: Alternative certification

Chapter VIII: Watchkeeping

3.International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships

SOURCE:GOOGLE

The MARPOL Convention was adopted on 2 November 1973 at IMO. The Protocol of 1978 was adopted in response to a spate of tanker accidents in 1976-1977. As the 1973 MARPOL Convention had not yet entered into force, the 1978 MARPOL Protocol absorbed the parent Convention. The combined instrument entered into force on 2 October 1983. In 1997, a Protocol was adopted to amend the Convention and a new Annex VI was added which entered into force on 19 May 2005. MARPOL has been updated by amendments through the years.

Annex I  Regulations for the Prevention of Pollution by Oil (entered into force 2 October 1983)

Annex II  Regulations for the Control of  Pollution by Noxious Liquid Substances in Bulk  (entered into force 2 October 1983)

Annex III Prevention of Pollution by Harmful Substances Carried by Sea in Packaged Form (entered into force 1 July 1992)

Annex IV Prevention of Pollution by Sewage from Ships  (entered into force 27 September 2003)

Annex V Prevention of Pollution by Garbage from Ships (entered into force 31 December 1988)

Annex VI Prevention of  Air Pollution from Ships (entered into force 19 May 2005)

4.Maritime Labour Convention (MLC)

SOURCE:GOOGLE

The Maritime Labour Convention (MLC) is an International Labour Organization convention, number 186, established in 2006 as the fourth pillar of international maritime law and embodies "all up-to-date standards of existing international maritime labour Conventions and Recommendations, as well as the fundamental principles to be found in other international labour Conventions". The other "pillars are the SOLAS, STCW and MARPOL. The treaties applies to all ships entering the harbours of parties to the treaty (port states), as well as to all states flying the flag of state party (flag states, as of 2019: over 90 per cent).

The convention entered into force on 20 August 2013, one year after registering 30 ratifications of countries representing over 33 per cent of the world gross tonnage of ships.Already after five ratifications the ratifying countries (Bahamas, Norway, Liberia, Marshall Islands, and Panama) represented over 43 per cent of the gross world tonnage (which is over 33 per cent; the second requirement for entry into force). As of September 2019, the convention has been ratified by 97 states representing over 91 per cent of global shipping.

Although the Convention has not been ratified worldwide, it has widespread effect because vessels from non-signatory states that attempt to enter ports of signatory states may face arrest and penalties for non-compliance with the MLC.

HOW I REACT WHEN FACING PROBLEMS !!!

7 Strategies to Face Life's Challenges

In our personal lives, and on a global scale, we face challenges that test our emotional mentle injury, illness, unemployment, grief, divorce, death, or even a new venture with an unknown future. Here are seven strategies to help carry us through:

1. Turn Toward Reality

source:google

So often we turn away from life rather than toward it. We are masters of avoidance! But if we want to be present to enjoy life and be more effective in it we must orient ourselves toward facing reality. When we are guided by the reality principle, we develop a deeper capacity to deal with life more effectively. What once was difficult is now easier. What once frightened us now feels familiar. Life becomes more manageable. And there’s something even deeper that we gain: Because we can see that we have grown stronger, we have greater confidence that we can grow even stronger still. This is the basis of feeling capable, which is the wellspring of a satisfying life.

2. Embrace Your Life as It Is Rather Than as You Wish It to Be

source:google

The Buddha taught that the secret to life is to want what you have and to not want what you don’t have. Being present means being present to the life that you have right here, right now. There is freedom in taking life as it comes to us the good with the bad, the wonderful with the tragic, the love with the loss, and the life with the death. When we embrace it all, then we have a real chance to enjoy life, to value our experiences, and to mine the treasures that are there for the taking. When we surrender to the reality of who we are, we give ourselves a chance to do what we can do.

3. Take Your Time

source:google

As the story of the tortoise and the hare tells us, slow and steady wins the race. By being in a hurry, we actually thwart our own success. We get ahead of ourselves. We make more mistakes. We cut corners and pay for them later. We may learn the easy way but not necessarily the best way. As an old adage puts it: The slower you go, the sooner you get there. Slow, disciplined, incremental growth is the kind of approach that leads to lasting change.

4. Practice Gratitude

source:google

It is easy to count our troubles rather than our blessings, but such an attitude undermines our ability to draw from the good that we have been given and to see our lives fundamentally as a gift. A change in perspective can make all the difference. Recognizing the good and receiving it with gratitude is a recipe for emotional health and well-being. This attitude enlarges the possibility that we can make use of the good we have been given and even use it to cope with the difficulties that we inevitably inherit.

5. Stay Close to Your Feelings, Even the Painful Ones

source:google

Often we find our feelings scary, heavy, and confusing, so we try to keep them at a distance. But we need our feelings in order to find satisfaction, meaning, and pleasure in life. Getting rid of feelings not only backfires but it also drains us of the psychological energy that makes life worth living. Feelings are the gas in the engine of our personalities. They are the source of motivation. They are the energy, the vitality, the juice of life. Without them, our lives wouldn’t have any personality, dimension, or color. There wouldn’t be any joy, creativity, or fun. There wouldn’t be you. There wouldn’t be me. Without our feelings, nothing would really matter.

6. Accept Success and Failure as Part of Life’s Journey

source:google

We are all learning: No one gets it right every time. A more compassionate attitude toward ourselves only helps us to stay in the game. The dynamic process of life trying, succeeding, failing, and trying again is the only way to develop lasting confidence in ourselves. We learn through experience that we can both succeed and recover from failure. We also learn to be humble and so to develop a view of ourselves as limited creatures that will always need the help and support of others. No matter how mature or successful we become, the child within always will need mentors and friends who’ll see us through.

7. Tend to Your Loving Relationships

source:google

It is easy to neglect what matters most: our relationships with those we love. These relationships don’t just happen magically; they grow and are sustained through attentive care and hard work. Mature love in marriage, family, or friendships is a dynamic, living experience. It is something you choose every day. It is something that is earned every day. It requires commitment to keep it working. It involves a daily process of overcoming the distance and honoring the separateness between us. It accepts the reality that we will hurt one another and be hurt by one another. It is the nature of being human. These pains cannot be avoided. We can only devote ourselves to do what we can do to weather them and to mend them. Love, then, is essentially repair work. We tend to the hurts. We try to heal them. We express our concern. We take responsibility for our mistakes; we learn to say we’re sorry. We try to make amends. We learn to forgive; we accept the forgiveness of another. As the monks do every day, we fall down and get up, fall down and get up again.

MY IDOL

MY ROLE MODAL
AJITH KUMAR

source:google

Everyone in this world have an idol in their life.idol is someone that you admire so much,maybe a singer,an actor, a football player, model or etc. For me Mr.Ajith kumar has been my idol since I was 8 years old.Ajith Kumar is one of the very few actors who is appreciated for both his looks and his on-screen performances. In fact, he is also called the 'George Clooney of Kollywood', courtesy his good looks. Actress Khushbu has never missed a chance to talk about Ajith's good looks and in fact, it was her idea to call him George Clooney.

Born in Hyderabad, Ajith was called an 'outsider' when he stepped foot in Kollywood and had to face a lot of issues before he could gain a strong foothold in the Tamil film industry. He tasted success when Aasai became a huge hit. Following Aasai, he established himself as a hero with films like Ullasam, Kadhal Mannan, Vaali, Amarkalam and Kadhal Kondein.

It was AR Murugadoss's Dheena that made him the 'mass hero' and helped him get the epithet 'Thala'. If his on-screen persona is captivating enough, his off-screen personality is something that is extremely intriguing to people.

Ajith is a very private person and doesn't usually let out any information about his personal life. It has been over eight years since Thala attended any public gatherings or press meets.

In 2010, Ajith and a lot of film personalities were forced to attend the felicitation ceremony of ex-CM Karunanidhi. The actor, who never fails to call a spade a spade, took to the stage and stated that he and his cadres should not force actors to attend such political functions. During Ajith's speech, Rajinikanth gave him a standing ovation.

That was probably the last time when Ajith was seen on such a huge stage. However, fellow actors, film personalities and socialites have only good things to say about his off-screen persona.

source:google

HUMBLENESS

He is probably the first star to disband his fan clubs and ask his fans to treat cinema as entertainment. Speaking about why dissolved his fan clubs, he told a daily, "This has nothing to do with the industry or the culture. This is something that I wanted to do, especially with the nexus between politics and the industry being so strong. I am aware that fans of mine come from different walks of life. And I want my fans to do well, but they need to understand that there is life beyond movies. This is entertainment; don't take it too seriously. As fans, be united and come and watch my film. I received a lot of support when I took this decision. I'm very grateful to my fans that they accepted my decision and understood why I did it. With social networking, you are free to express yourself and I will take it as constructive criticism. You don't need an organization to be a fan. If you love me, say a prayer for me."

In 2017, Ajith once again proved that stardom is nothing to him. When a journalist was trolled by Vijay's fans, he sent out a press release stating that he is not associated with anyone who abuses anyone online in his name. In the statement, he also apologised for his fans' behaviour.

In his career spanning 25 years, he achieved immense success, but his policy is to stay grounded and true to his roots. Even today, when over-enthusiastic fans throng to take pictures with him, he obliges with a smile and has never lost his cool at them.

SIMPLICITY

source:google

Ajith's simplicity is something that anyone who has met the star would speak about for hours together. Whenever his friends or guests visit his house, he makes sure he serves them food and doesn't allow them to take the plates when they're finished. Hospitality is something he values a lot and he makes sure he treats his guests well.

Even after rejoicing two decades of stardom, Ajith does not believe in getting special privileges. Be it the local body election or school admission for his kids, he always stands in the queue along with the public and speaks of himself as a human being rather than a star.

Many actors who have shared screen space with him have opined that whenever Ajith walks to the set, he is brimming with positivity. He greets everyone right from the director to the light man with the same respect. Since he loves cooking, he makes sure he cooks biryani for the entire set and serves the food to them, all by himself.

QUEST FOR KNOWLEDGE

source:google

Apart from acting, Ajith is a man with many special interests. From car racing to bike racing to photography to aeromodelling, he makes sure he spends time on these hobbies whenever he gets some time.His latest interest is shooting and the actor was recently spotted at the Chennai Rifle Club. Also, his visit to the Madras Institute of Technology in Chennai was much spoken about. He spent over 10 hours in the college to learn about quadcopter workings and designs.

source:google

His photography skills too have been lauded by film personalities over the years. His sister-in-law Shamili's career didn't take off as anticipated and hence he decided to a photo shoot with her. While the photographs went viral, sadly, they still didn't earn her many projects. Similarly, he gave a makeover to his co-actor Appukutty who was often seen in village-based roles.

RESPECT FOR PEOPLE

Those who have seen Ajith, always speak about how he respects everyone irrespective of their stature. He has no airs around him and treats everyone equally on the sets of his films. Women, people say, he treats with the utmost respect.

In fact, in a few interviews, Gautham Menon stated that Ajith's character in Yennai Arindhaal is the closest to Ajith's off-screen personality. He also added that he let Ajith be himself on screen. Most of the sequences featuring him and Trisha in Yennai Arindhaal were shot candidly.

source:google

EXCLUSIVITY

Ajith stopped giving interviews citing that his words were blown out of proportion by certain sections of the media. He stopped attending film-related events and public gatherings so as not to help TRPs of channels. While people miss listening to him, his fans have gracefully accepted his stance. Even then, the craze for Ajith and the number of his films haven't seen a decline. In fact, the fan-following is only increasing with each film.

Introduction To Management (ORGANIZING)

Introduction To Management

ORGANIZING

The Nature of Organizing 

When an arrangement has been made, a supervisor can start to sort out. Sorting out includes doling out assignments, gathering undertakings into offices, appointing authority, and dispensing assets over the association. During the sorting out procedure, directors organize representatives, assets, arrangements, and techniques to encourage the objectives distinguished in the arrangement. Getting sorted out is profoundly intricate and frequently includes a methodical survey of HR, accounts, and needs.

Before an arrangement can be actualized, administrators must compose the benefits of the business to execute the arrangement productively and adequately. Getting specialization and the division of work is vital to this exertion, since a large number of the "benefits" are representatives. 


Where laborers are authorities, supervisors can bunch those representatives into divisions so their work is suitably coordinated and composed. To put it plainly, work ought to be isolated, and the perfect individuals ought to be given the correct occupations to diminish excess and wastefulness.

source:google

The Organizational Process 

Sorting out, such as arranging, must be a deliberately worked out and applied procedure. This procedure includes figuring out what work is expected to achieve the objective, doling out those errands to people, and orchestrating those people in a decision‐making system (hierarchical structure). The final product of the arranging procedure is an association — an entire comprising of brought together parts acting in congruity to execute assignments to accomplish objectives, both adequately and effectively. 


An appropriately actualized arranging procedure should bring about a workplace where all colleagues know about their obligations. In the event that the arranging procedure isn't directed well, the outcomes may yield perplexity, disappointment, loss of productivity, and restricted viability.

When all is said in done, the hierarchical procedure comprises of five stages (a flowchart of these means is appeared in Figure 1):

source:google

1.Review plans and goals. 

Destinations are the particular exercises that must be finished to accomplish objectives. Plans shape the exercises expected to arrive at those objectives. Administrators must look at plans at first and keep on doing as such as plans change and new objectives are created. 

2.Determine the work exercises important to achieve destinations. 

In spite of the fact that this undertaking may appear to be overpowering to certain administrators, it shouldn't be. Administrators essentially list and break down every one of the assignments that should be practiced so as to arrive at authoritative objectives. 

3.Classify and bunch the fundamental work exercises into reasonable units. 

An administrator can amass exercises dependent on four models of departmentalization: useful, topographical, item, and client. 

4.Assign exercises and agent authority. 

Supervisors dole out the characterized work exercises to explicit people. Additionally, they give every individual the power (right) to complete the doled out assignments. 

5.Design a chain of command of connections. 

A director ought to decide the vertical (decision‐making) and even (planning) connections of the association all in all. Next, utilizing the authoritative outline, a supervisor should chart the connections.

source:google

Advantages of Organizing 

While the arranging capacity of directors is fundamental to arriving at business objectives, bunches of cautious arranging can go to squander if supervisors neglect to sort out the organization's benefits and assets satisfactorily. A portion of the advantages of sorting out incorporate the accompanying: 

Association orchestrates representatives' individual objectives with the general destinations of the firm. In the event that representatives are working without respect for the comprehensive view, at that point the association loses the union important to fill in as a unit. 

A decent authoritative structure is basic for the development of business exercises. Since authoritative structure improves following and responsibility, that structure assists organizations with deciding the assets it needs to develop. Also, association is fundamental for item expansion, for example, the advancement of another product offering. 

Association helps business effectiveness and lessens squander. So as to expand proficiency, a few organizations incorporate activities while others orchestrate tasks in view of client or provincial requests. 

A solid hierarchical structure makes "levels of leadership" clear so workers know whose bearings they ought to follow. This thusly improves responsibility, which is significant when results are estimated and broke down. 


This is a short rundown of the advantages directors (and organizations) acknowledge when they set aside the effort to sort out. With regards to the specific authoritative structure a business follows, an assortment of elements, for example, size, industry, and administrator inclination become possibly the most important factor.

109,000 Horsepower

THIS IS HOW 109,000 HORSEPOWER LOOKS LIKE - MEET THE BIGGEST AND MOST POWERFUL ENGINE IN THE WORLD.

This jaw dropper is the Wärtsilä RT-flex96C, the world’s largest and most powerful diesel engine in the world today.

This jaw-dropper is the Wärtsilä RT-flex96C, the world’s largest and most powerful diesel engine.

Built in Finland, the RT-flex96C’s fourteen cylinders can generate 107,389HP with more than 7,000,000Nm of torque — that’s enough to power an entire suburban town.

The engine weighs 2,300 tons and stands 44-feet tall and 90-feet long – more than a four-story building. Redline is at 102 RPM, but the torque is enough to tear a tank to shreds.

Each of the 14 built-in cylinders devours 6.5 ounces of diesel in one cycle that produces 5700 kW of energy. That might sound like a lot, but the engine is actually highly efficient and one of the least polluting of its kind.

You might wonder what kind of behemoth would need so much power. In 2006, the Wärtsilä RT-flex96C engine was installed and finally set sail on the Emma Mærsk, a cargo ship that can carry 11,000 20-foot shipping containers at a breakneck speed of 31 knots, whereas most other ships in its class typically cruise with 20 knots.

The ship regularly ferries cargo from China to the U.S, which it can deliver four days earlier than its competition, saving a lot of money. There are currently 25 such engines roaming the world’s oceans, and another 86 are on the way.

What the engine looks like installed in the ship. 

All in all, this is one of the most amazing feats of human engineering.
