Royal Brunei Navy commander First Admiral Pengiran Norazmi
Bin Pengiran Haji Muhammad vowed closer cooperation with the Philippine Navy
following a meeting last Monday with PN flag officer-in-command Vice Admiral
Jesus C. Millan.
Norazmi also expressed his enthusiasm in deepening and
strengthening of the relationship between the PN and RBN.
The former also visited the PN headquarters at Naval Station
Jose Andrada, Roxas Blvd. ,
Manila . He arrived in the country
last Sunday.
Prior to his meeting with Millan, the RBN commander made a
courtesy call on Defense Secretary Voltaire Gazmin and Armed Forces
chief-of-staff Gen. Gregorio Pio Catapang.
The PN and the RBN have a regular bilateral training
codenamed Maritime Training Activity Seagull (MTA Seagull) hosted alternately
to strengthen the bilateral relationship and enhance the mutual cooperation and
understanding between the two navies.
MTA Seagull is held every other year in accordance with the
Memorandum of Understanding on Defense Cooperation between the Philippines and
Brunei Darussalam signed on Aug. 22, 2001 which serves as a framework for
fostering closer defense relations and cooperation between the armed forces of
both countries.
