   APL has agreed with Sri Lanka Port Authority's Mahapola Training Institute to train 20 new seafarers annually onboard its ships.
   The initiative “enables us to tap into the country's pool of capable and well-qualified graduates from the institute,” said APL President Eng Aik Meng
   There are 24 cadets from Sri Lanka serving on APL vessels. APL has been operating in Sri Lanka since the 1980s.
