Yes, you read it. The long wait is over!!! Application for 42nd Ship for Southeast Asian Youth Program (SSEAYP) is now open. This is your chance to be one of the 28 Ambassadors of Goodwill and represent the Philippines while at the same time interact with other ASEAN and Japanese youth for 53 days as you travel to Japan, Philippines, Vietnam, Myanmar and Malaysia onboard the luxury cruise ship Nippon Maru for this year's SSEAYP.

National Youth Commission officially announced the opening of the application for the 42nd batch of SSEAYP last February 20, 2015.
Filipino youth between 18-30 years old is highly encouraged to apply and be one of this year's Philippine Ambassador of Goodwill.

SSEAYP changed my life! It's the best way to get a first hand experience on how it is like to live in ONE ASEAN community while traveling with other young ambassadors from Japan and ASEAN. Don't miss this opportunity!

Hi RR, you can make an arrangement with your school if necessary or choose to defer for a semester. In our batch, an 18 year old was chosen and she decided to file for Leave of Absence from her school so that she can take part in this once in a lifetime trip.

You may also opt to apply some other year, once you're done with your studies.

Hello Jeremy, I suggest you clarify this with NYC. Please call them and for sure they'll give the concrete answer for this and explain their guidelines to you.

But I still suggest you apply this year, there's no harm in trying. ;-)
Thank you.
