THE Philippine government has launched coordination efforts with the owner of the Portuguese-flagged MCS Aries ship after four Filipino seafarers and 21 other nationalities on board were captured by Iranian authorities while navigating the Strait of Hormuz, near the Gulf of Oman, on April 13.The Department of Migrant Workers, the country’s agency tasked to protect the rights and promote the welfare of overseas Filipino workers and their families, confirmed the capture of the ship and the Filipino crew onboard by the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Special Naval Force on April 14.“We are also in coordination with the Department of Foreign Affairs, the licensed manning agency, ship manager and operator to ensure the safety and well-being as well as work on the release of our dear seafarers,” the agency said in a statement.The government agency did not divulge the names of the Filipino crewmen in its statement, however, it assured the public that they had already informed their families.“What we are trying to do right now is establish communication with them. We are coordinating with the ship owner to establish a connection with the ship and with the seafarers,” DMW Officer-in-Charge Hans Leo Cacdac told reporters in Manila on April 15.“We just got word that they are safe on board. The ship is just anchored [in Iran],” he added.DMW assured the four seafarers and their families of “full government support and assistance,” upon the directives of President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.Meanwhile, Kabayan Partylist Congressman Ron Salo, chairman of the House Committee on Overseas Workers Affairs, said the situation involving the capture of the Portuguese-owned vessel has put the Filipino seafarers "in an extremely precarious position.""It highlights the continued vulnerability of our overseas seafarers who are among the most affected in any international conflicts,” Salo said in a separate statement on April 14.He lauded the DMW for its "swift response.""They have all worked diligently to reassure the families of the affected seafarers and for coordinating efforts aimed at securing their safe release,” the lawmaker added.As this developed, the Philippine Catholic Church has urged the Filipinos to pray and “implore our almighty God to touch the hearts of those who seized the MSC Aries to release them, for respect and promotion of rights and dignity of all MSC Aries crew and peace may reign at the Strait of Hormuz.”“It is sad news. Like their families, we too are worried for their condition. We are so concerned with their situation,” said Bishop Ruperto Cruz Santos of Antipolo, the Catholic Bishops' Conference of the Philippines promoter of Stella Maris-Philippines.“In this problematic situation, we turn to God for His mercy to keep our four seafarers safe, stable, and healthy. We trust our government officials for necessary diplomatic assistance and assurance to exhaust all means to bring them safely home,” the bishop said on April 15.Philippine state-news agency identified MSC Aries as owned by Gortal Shipping Inc., which is affiliated with Zodiac Maritime Shipping Company.IRNA News Agency of Iran said that Zodiac is partly owned by Israeli businessman Eyal Ofer.The recent capture of the international vessel continued to heighten the tensions between Iran and Israel following the latter’s attack on the Iranian consulate in Syria on April 1, which reportedly killed two IRGC top commanders along with several Iranian military advisors, according to the Philippine News Agency.The Philippines has remained the world's leading supplier of sailors, with over 489,000 Filipino seamen working on both ship passengers and cargo across the globe in 2022.

And also we have a very significant part of our economy is dependent on our overseas workers,” he added.Marcos said they are also paying attention to directing investment properly to ensure that it actually helps the country’s economic growth.“We now move on with the initiatives that we would like to introduce. And those are, what I spoke of in my speech, the investment that comes from private partners (but) government to government investments are also something that we are hoping to increase,” the President said.“And these investments also must be directed properly.

I think, we [have] grown the idea… that we grow the economy out of the doldrums of the post-pandemic situation,” he added.Capital investment in new sectors will also be key, Marcos said, citing investments in digital space, new technologies and industries such as green minerals processing and battery production.In his speech during the WEF, Marcos highlighted the reforms his administration instituted for economic development and the ease of doing business in the Philippines to entice more investors to put up or expand their businesses in the country.He noted the revised implementing rules and regulations (IRR) of the Build-Operate-Transfer Law followed by the revisions of the Public-Private Partnerships (PPP) Code.He reiterated that now is the right time for foreign investors to invest in the country, saying that “our economic liberalization measures signal the dawn of a new era of investments here in the Philippines.”“Clearly, the Philippines is in a prime position to enter into a sustained period of robust economic expansion over the next couple of years,” Marcos said.“I extend an invitation to our guests and partners here today to join us in this exciting new phase. The members of the economic team are here today ready to discuss those opportunities that I speak of in greater depth,” he added.Marcos highlighted the 185 Infrastructure Flagship Projects, which offer high rates of return and benefit from a streamlined process. These projects strategically target important sectors for sustainable development in the Philippines, including physical and digital connectivity, agriculture, energy, health, and climate-resilient infrastructure.He also noted that investments, particularly in durable equipment and public construction, emerged as a key driver in the full-year growth of the Philippine economy.The WEF Country Roundtable in the Philippines is the first high-level to be convened in the Asia-Pacific region since the end of the pandemic.OptimismBrende said it was the result of Marcos’ participation in the WEF in Switzerland in January last year that created a lot of interest and optimism in the Philippines.“There is a lot of optimism in the Philippines but also around the Philippines globally. We had a dialogue there and it was very, very well-received and a lot of companies that are partners with the World Economic Forum said that they would like to have a roundtable, to meet with the Filipino secretaries, [and] also to meet with President Marcos,” he said in a press conference.“Go a little bit deeper on the reforms and outlook for the Philippines and since then, in one and a half years’ time, the economy here has really shown how resilient it is,” he added.Brende expressed belief that if the Philippines continues its current policy reforms, upgrading infrastructure, as well as investing in renewables and other areas, it will continue to grow and could remain bullish.“I think that this can be in the coming decade, US$ 2 trillion economy if there are foreign investments in education, in infrastructure, and also able to draw on the great [competence] of the people of the Philippines,” he said.“The youth is considerable. There [are] also opportunities when it comes to the knowledge-based economy because it’s a big change, it’s a paradigm change we face right now.
