OCA. Opportunities for others.

Mariner’s daughter, Marissa Oca, is spearheading the First  International Seafarers’ Family Convention (ISFC) on Aug. 4 and 5 at the PICC Convention Center, with President Benigno S. Aquino III as keynote speaker.

ISFC aims to promote bonding among seafarers’ families and improve their quality of life.

The convention provides opportunities for both local families and their foreign counterparts. Participants will have the chance to meet and mingle with the maritime industry’s stakeholders and leaders.
