๐Ÿšข HISTORIC WIN FOR THE SAILORS โš“

A Filipino seaman made history in the Netherlands after the Human Rights Board declared paying lower wages to non-European crew is discrimination.

Although this brave sailor passed away before the decision was made, his fight paved the way for equal pay for all nationalities serving on ships registered in the Netherlands.

The case highlights the long-standing issue of wage gap faced by Filipinos and other Asian seafarers, where wages are based on the โ€œcountry of residenceโ€ and not on their real hard work and skills.

This win is not just for one person ,it is for justice, dignity, and equality of every seaman at sea. ๐ŸŒŠ
