The Settsu, with 52 officers and sailors onboard, is captained by Colonel Niwa Satoshi. During the trip, crew members paid a courtesy visit to leaders of the municipal People’s Committee, and engaged in exchange and training activities with soldiers and officers of the High Command of the Vietnam Coast Guard Region 2 and the Vietnam Maritime Search and Rescue Coordination Centre Zone 2 in Da Nang.
The Settsu patrol ship is on a month long international anti-piracy patrol mission in Southeast Asian waters.
The exchanges are expected to further deepen the Vietnam-Japan relationship, contributing to maintaining and promoting a free and open maritime order based on respect for international law in the Indo-Pacific region.
