National People's Congress representative, senior captain of China Ocean Shipping Group Co., Ltd. Ni Di: Improve seafarers' rights protection to help build a strong maritime country.

At this year's National People's Congress, Ni Di, a senior captain of China Ocean Shipping Group Co., Ltd., proposed suggestions regarding the protection of seafarers' rights. International sailing crew members are an important part of deepening China's high-level opening-up to the outside world and promoting the high-quality development of the marine economy. It is recommended that the country include seafarers as a whole in the 'special occupations' of the transportation industry, improve the mechanism for protecting seafarers' rights, and further strengthen the construction of a high-level seafarer team.
