Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) Commandant, Admiral Ronnie Gil L Gavan PCG, has joined the Anti-Piracy and Sea Robbery Conference 2025 in Singapore today, 26 March 2025.
As the Regional Cooperation Agreement on Combating Piracy and Armed Robbery against Ships in Asia - Information Sharing Centre (ReCAAP ISC) Governing Council Chairperson, Admiral Gavan welcomed the participants from international and local shipping associations, shipping companies, ReCAAP Focal Points, regional authorities, foreign missions accredited to Singapore, research institutes, and academia.
“Over the past two years, the global maritime situation has been marked by disruptions to shipping routes, geopolitical tensions, and challenges to global supply chains. This has created new challenges for the shipping industry, port authorities, and coastal states,” the ReCAAP ISC Governing Council Chairperson shared.
“To assist the shipping industry in incident reporting and making risk assessments, ReCAAP ISC has published posters with contact details of maritime rescue coordination centres in Asia and law enforcement agencies of coastal states, as well as launched an interactive dashboard re-vamp,” he furthered.
