“During the courtesy call, Commodore Garcia presented an overview of the NCWC and PCG in order to identify potential areas of cooperation between the PCG and USCG,” the PCG said.
The NCWC is an inter-agency maritime surveillance and coordinated response facility. It was established as a coordinating and implementing mechanism in a whole-of-government approach to address current and future maritime safety, security, and environmental protection challenges in the Philippines.
