After investigation and verification, it was found that these 11 Chinese seafarers (including the master) did not request to disembark or be repatriated, however they will continue working on CENTRY BRIGHT. The entry into the ILO/IMO joint database would result in discrepancies with the actual situation.

The seafarers have been paid up to October, however, they are still on board waiting to be repatriated
