This document forms part of a group of shipping and personal identification documents which belonged to the late Asip bin Ali, dated 1948 to the 1970s. The documents paint a vivid picture of Asip bin Ali's career as a sailor, from the point of his appointment in 1948 (based on this Certificate of Service, but mentioned by his family as 1946) through to the late 1970s, whereupon he retired as quartermaster and crew supervisor (as illustrated by the Wages of Deck document). This particular document contained a list of wages allocated to each crew member, and formed one of Asip's many supervisory duties as quartermaster in the 1960s.
