The Philippines and the United States of America conducted a third maritime cooperative activity (MCA) in the West Philippine Sea (WPS) on Friday.
In a statement, the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) said the MCA had become a routine activity that strengthened both nations’ firm commitment to reinforce security and stability across the Indo-Pacific region.
Among the activities during the MCA were communication exercises, photo exercises, and division tactics or Officer of the Watch Maneuvers.
The Philippine Navy’s BRP Gregorio Del Pilar (PS-15) and AW109 Helicopter (NH434) and the US Navy’s USS Gabrielle Giffords (LCS 10), embarked with an MH-60S Sea Hawk, sailed together and participated in advanced planning and maritime communication operations within the Philippines’ Exclusive Economic Zone.
AFP Chief of Staff, General Romeo Brawner Jr. said the continuous maritime cooperative activity manifests the enduring partnership between both countries.
“It demonstrates our commitment to a free and open Indo-Pacific, and fosters closer cooperation towards further enhancing our maritime capabilities,” Brawner added. — DVM, GMA Integrated News
