On February 27, 2013 rector of the Odesa National Maritime Academy Mikhail Miyusov has stated that among suppliers of the naval officers in the global labour market Ukraine is in the fourth place after the Philippines, China and India, Context-Prichernomorie correspondent reports.

Such a statement Mikhail Miyusov made during the round table discussion on the topic: “Ukraine: maritime state or country near the sea? Maritime industry — challenges and the way of reviving the Navy, Black Sea Shipping Company”.

“As of today, the officer personnel of the Ukraine is the fourth largest in the world after the Philippines, China and India. For our country, with a relatively small population is a very good indicator. As for the ratings ― the situation is quite different ― our sailors are beyond comparison of the countries of Southeast Asia”, he noted.
