WESTMINCOM: WestMinCom hosts IndoMalPhi Trilateral Security Conference

Posted to the Western Mindanao Command (WESTMINCOM) Facebook Page (Mar 5, 2020):  WestMinCom hosts IndoMalPhi Trilateral Security Conference

The Western Mindanao Command hosted the Indonesia-Malaysia-Philippines Trilateral Security Conference held at Garden Orchid Hotel, Zamboanga City on March 5, 2020.

The meeting was attended by representatives from the General Headquarters of the Armed Forces of the Philippines, Indonesian and Malaysian counterparts, and the top officers of the Western Mindanao Command and its subordinate units.

Discussed during the meeting were the following agenda: The Operational Environment of the Tri-border Area; Kidnapping Trends in the High Seas: Modus Operandi of Threat Groups; Government Initiatives and Efforts: Current Courses of Action of the Philippines, Indonesia, and Malaysia in Addressing the Kidnapping of Persons in the Tri-border Area; and Identifying the Gaps and Challenges in Securing the Tri-border Area.

Representatives from the three countries then shared their recommended solutions to the security challenges presented.

In his remarks, WestMinCom chief Lt. Gen. Cirilito Sobejana stressed that security is a shared responsibility.

“The improvement of joint operation capabilities is assured through our coordinated air and sea patrols in maritime and land border areas. This is an efficient measure as we enhance our intelligence and information sharing to thwart kidnapping, piracy, and incursion of foreign militants within our territorial borders,” Lt. Gen. Sobejana said.

“The AFP extends its profound gratitude to the delegates from the Indonesian and Malaysian armed forces. Let us continue to work together for genuine peace and sustainable development,” he concluded.

The partnership among the three countries aims to resolve security challenges within the tri-border area.
