They will join the Vietnamese navy in an exercise on search and rescue at sea as well as sport activities.

This is the ninth visit to Vietnam of a naval ship of Singapore.

The visit is expected to further consolidate the friendship between Vietnam and Singapore in general and the two armies in particularly, especially in the context that they are speeding up cooperative activities within the framework of their strategic partnership signed in September last year.
