Royal Malaysian Navy Ship Arrives at Cam Ranh International Port

On the morning of August 4, the Royal Malaysian Navy ship KD Selangor-176, commanded by Commander Che Mohd Fakrul Azizi Bin Che Lah, along with 97 crew members, docked at Cam Ranh International Port, commencing a courtesy visit to Khánh Hòa Province from August 4 to August 7.

The visit aims to strengthen cooperation, mutual understanding, and trust between the armed forces and Navies of Vietnam and Malaysia. As part of the visit, the ship’s commanding officers will pay courtesy calls to the leaders of the Khánh Hòa Provincial People’s Committee and the Navy Region 4 Command. Additionally, the ship’s officers and sailors will participate in sports exchanges with officers and soldiers of Navy Region 4, conduct joint exercises at sea, and visit local historical and cultural sites.

In executing the ship welcoming plan, Cam Ranh International Port coordinated effectively with relevant units and functional agencies such as the Ministry of National Defence’s Foreign Relations Department, Navy Region 4 Command, Customs, Border Guard, Maritime Administration, and Ship Agents to ensure the quality of services provided to the vessel, as well as the successful execution of reception and foreign affairs activities at the port. The port proves worthy of being the flagship of the Saigon Newport Corporation (SNP) system in carrying out defense foreign affairs missions.
