SOUTH AFRICA A MARITIME COUNTRY - MARITIME
INTERESTS

• South Africas maritime interests are strategic,
  economic, environmental and political
• 3,000 km coastline in 3 oceans Atlantic, Indian
  and Southern Oceans, positioned on a major
  strategic shipping route (with 30 of the
  population settled along the coast)
• 8 commercial ports (15,000 employees), 12
  official fishing harbours
• Fishing employs about 200,000 and feeds 3,6m
  people, generating R4,1bn in revenue
• Trade is over 50 of GDP (58 of GDP in 2008)
• 98 of SA trade by volume and 80 trade value is
  by sea
• 3.5 World sea trade (volume) top 15 countries
  on sea trade by distance (tonne-mile)
• Continental shelf claim increases South Africas
  sea land to 2.8 times land mass
• South Africas Search and Recue region is about
  22 times larger than the land mass
• Extensive off shore interests (Islands,
  Antarctic, marine and offshore oil and gas)
• South Africa leads in Africas intra-regional and
  international trade
• All key partners such as in BRICS are regional
  maritime powers with vast maritime interests and
  capabilities in sea trade, commerce and naval
  influence
• South Africas strategic global interests and
  international obligations include providing
  safety of navigation for shipping, ensuring
  freedom of the seas, security of shipping as well
  as protection of the marine environment

AFRICAS MARITIME INTERESTS KEY
CONSIDERATIONS AND CHALLENGES

• GEO STRATEGIC CONSIDERATIONS
• The worlds oceans constitute about 70 of
  planet earth, providing the world with trade
  routes and coastal ecosystems which sustain both
  the global commerce and world climates.
• With all its vast international and national
  interests and obligations, its location as a
  maritime country, the lack of awareness about the
  sector persists.
• The maritime sector in South Africa suffers
  policy neglect and attracts very little attention
  as a sector which can create jobs, grow the
  economy and make effective interventions in
  society.
• The sector remains un-transformed and a domain
  of expatriates in the absence of skills
  development focus for South Africans.
• The maritime skills funding is negligible, with
  limited infrastructure and resource capacity for
  skills development programme.
• There can be no growth of the sector without
  investing
• in maritime skills development !!!

• AFRICA is largely dependent on trade for its
  economic development
• Intra-regional trade
• International trade
• Africas trade is dominated by coastal economies
  in all the 4 regions of the East, West, North and
  South
• That trade is largely seaborne and moves through
  its ports (91)
• The development of the land-locked countries
  and their access to international markets are
  dependent on the performance of the network of
  maritime transport and logistics corridors,
  including ports and ships
• Transport, in this case maritime transport and
  logistics become an essential and strategic area
  of economic consideration
• in that context, the development of the maritime
  transport
• infrastructure becomes a key enabler and catalyst
  for the
• competitiveness and development of Africas
  economy

• Africa is the only world region with no merchant
  tonnage under its control (registry) to handle
  her coastal intra-regional and extra-territorial
  seaborne trade
• Africa imports transport and logistics services
  with every import - export activity
• No tax and tonnage related benefits, hence skewed
  balance of trade
• Decimation of maritime services expertise
  (sea-based and ashore) and competitiveness
• Lost opportunities for possible investment in
  shipping by Africans
• Vulnerability to foreign geo-political and
  geo-economic pressures
• Undermines the establishment of viable coastal
  industry to complement the land and aviation
  national transport infrastructure and services
• Loss of opportunities for domestic industrial
  development and job creation
• Weaker position in coordinating intra-regional
  African coastal trade strategies
• Weakening of the capacity of countries and
  governments to govern their

ADDRESSING THE CHALLENGES - INITIATIVES

• Other Challenges raised by the study are the
  following and SAMSA had already undertaken the
  initiatives (in italics) which respond to some of
  the challenges
• The quality of schools and the teaching human
  capital employed are generally less than adequate
• SAMSA has partnered with the Eastern Cape and
  KwaZulu Natal Provincial Governments to create
  awareness about maritime careers and set up a
  network of maritime high schools in port cities.
  The initiatives is being extended to the Northern
  Cape and Gauteng. The initial phase (2011/2012)
  included strengthening the existing maritime high
  schools (Western Cape and KwaZulu Natal),
  partnering with maths and science focussed
  schools, and sponsoring scholars.
• Insufficient infrastructure and skills capacity
  for skills development
• SAMSA has intervened by partnering with and
  assisting the two universities of technology
  offering seafaring maritime studies by conducting
  maritime career awareness campaigns, offering
  bursaries, topping up salaries for the lecturers
  in order to attract quality teaching staff
• SAMSA is purchasing a training simulator
  software for navigation studies in partnership
  with TETA
• SAMSA has made an offer to take over the Agulhas
  ship and convert into a floating classroom and
• SAMSA plans on establishing a Maritime
  Academy/Institute by 2014 catering for the
  continent as well.
• Lack of industry transformation and shortage of
  training berths for cadets.
• SAMSA has commissioned two crewing companies to
  source cadetship berths on the international
  fleet for 130 students within 2011/2012, 480
  next year, to reach 1200 /1600 per annum
• SAMSA has a workplace exposure scheme for 20
  maritime graduates per annum and
• SAMSA has launched Women in Maritime scheme and
  Sisters of the Sea womens mentorship network.

SEAFARERS SKILLS DEVELOPMENT AND JOBS FUTURE
OUTLOOK MARITIME

• The SAMSA Maritime Skills Study is revealing the
  potential of the Maritime HRD Strategy and Plan
  to address the current critical shortage of
  skills, to protect current jobs and prepare for
  and provide a catalyst for the sector growth and
  development across the 5 Sub-Sector of the
  Maritime industry
• Ports and Shipping
• Marine Resources
• Marine Tourism and Leisure
• Marine Manufacturing and Construction (including
  Technologies)
• Commercial Support and Business Services
• Public Interests (including Climate Change)
• The requisite skills and jobs opportunities cut
  across the entire structure of the Maritime
  Sector
• Maritime Transportation (including Ports and
  Logistics)
• Fishing
• Offshore (Oil and Gas, Seabed Mining and
  Renewable Energy)
• Marine Tourism, Leisure and Recreation
• Naval and Defence
• The maritime sector has the potential to be the
  new growth curve of the South African economy.
• Given the scarce skills and niche nature of
  international and domestic maritime sector, any
  amount of investment in the sector skills
  development programmes, coupled with optimal
  efficiencies makes maritime a business case in
  ROI in Human Capital Investment. A true
  TRANSFORMATION !

SEAFARERS SKILLS DEVELOPMENT AND JOBS
SEAFARERS CASE STUDY

• The global shortage in seafarers presents an
  opportunity for becoming a labour supply nation
  to the global shipping transport industry,
  thereby creating jobs particularly for the youth
  in the underdeveloped parts of the country,
  including rural and township areas
• --------------------------------------------------
  --------------------------------------------------
  --------------------------------------------
• Setting the Scene
• Over 80 of world trade is seaborne, handled by
  a fleet of over 50,000 merchant vessels South
  Africa 0 Ships
• The world fleet of over 50,000 employs about 1,4
  million seafarers South Africa about 1,500
• There are shortages of over 250,000 ie 34,000
  officers and 224,000 ratings South Africas
  unemployed 40
• On board the 12,000 merchant ships visiting the
  South African ports annually, carrying about
  240,000 seafarers who transport and handle our
  imports and exports (98 of total trade) South
  African port mariners about 1,500
• South Africas seaborne cargo constitutes a
  significant 3,5 of the global sea trade. South
  African transport 0
• Making the Case Dilemma or Lack of Vision
• Applying the uneducated rules of equitable
  participation, South Africa should be claiming a
  share of 30,000 - 45,000 seafaring jobs in
  international shipping 1 seafaring job has a
  multiplier factor of 8 to 10 jobs ashore.
• However South Africa needs to be training about
  3,000 to 4,500 seafarers annually to reach the
  target,

SEAFARERS SKILLS DEVELOPMENT AND JOBS
SEAFARERS CASE STUDY

• The global shortage in seafarers presents an
  opportunity for becoming a labour supply nation
  to the global shipping transport industry, which
  in addition to creating jobs for citizens has its
  strategic advantages to the nations geo-economic
  and geo-strategic position world-wide.
• The Findings that the opportunity of South
  Africa being favoured globally due to being an
  English speaking multi cultural nation, with high
  standards in seafarer training, suggest that
  South Africa possesses basic characteristics that
  could make it globally competitive in providing
  quality seafarers.
• In order for the country to position itself for
  these opportunities, a more collaborative
  strategic engagement within government, with the
  private sector and civil society needs to ensue,
  enabling
• The development of a National Policy and
  Programmes on Seafarer Development, addressing
• the need to position South Africa as a major
  supplier of high quality sea workers and
  expertise
• the need for sustainable funding and incentive
  scheme to be adopted and
• the capacity to grow the numbers and sustain a
  world-class Seafarer Centre of Excellence
• SAMSA considers its funding of the current
  Cadetship Program Initiative as seed funding.
• The National Seafarer Training system will
  realise its full potential when
• a dedicated Maritime Institute is set up, with
  faculties anchored within the existing FET and
  University of Technology systems
• South Africa grows a critical mass of ships on
  Ship Register to enable provision
• of training berths and jobs for the seafarers
  and
• The current available capacity within government
  and SOE-controlled fleet vessels is
  used exclusively to provide the required training
  support to the institutions and industry.

21
CONCLUSION

• SAMSA realises the potential of the
  international and domestic maritime industry in
  assisting with the creation of employment that is
  sustainable, of high quality and attracting
  foreign earnings, eliminating poverty and
  contributing to economic growth.
• The projected seafarer numbers, only represent
  the South African quota of the total
  international seafarer market, with a potential
  to take a bigger share of both the seafarers and
  non-seafaring.
• The current persistent unemployment levels
  require step change...for 17 years we have been
• doing the same old thing, yet expecting different
  outcomes.
• The maritime industry as a whole holds currently
  and potentially hundreds of thousands of jobs
• Fisheries employ about 200,000 people yet
  receives little skills development support
• Boat and Ship building and repairs, including
  offshore structures create hundreds of jobs,
• with little skills development support and
• Seafaring has the potential to create thousands
  of jobs, yet there is no support...
• SAMSA considers this forum - the Human Resource
  Development Secretariat and its Technical Working
  Group as key partners and enablers in the
  maritime skills development and job creation
  efforts.
• SAMSA is organising a Maritime Skills
  Development Summit at which the Skills Study will
  
• be launched and the industry with skills
  development policy makers and providers engaging
• in a process to develop the long term Maritime
  Skills Development Strategy, Programme
• and Plans. You are invited!
