samsa and their absolutley ridiculous operation...in october 2008 i submitted all the documentation to the relevant people and was told it would take a while to get my skippers license because there was a backlog...i handed in my document with my mates who by the way received his skippers 6 months later.

here i sit in 2011 still waiting...i have sent many emails to Sobantu Tilayi....Mrs. Karen Wilkie...Certification Officer....peace k mooketsi...registrar of seafarers of the south african maritime safety authourity (samsa) to now be told they have lost my documents and i must reapply.

i cannot believe that these people can loose such important documents certified copies of my ID...photos...affidavids etc...
