ROYAL BRUNEI NAVY PARTICIPATES IN 13TH REGIONAL MARITIME SECURITY PRACTITIONER PROGRAMME IN SINGAPORE
Changi Naval Base, Singapore, Friday, 25 July 2025 – The Royal Brunei Navy (RBN) participated in the 13th Regional Maritime Security (MARSEC) Practitioner Programme (RMPP), held from 21 to 25 July 2025 at the Changi Command and Control Centre, Republic of Singapore. Representing RBN at the programme were Lieutenant Commander Muhd Rosfadhly bin Haji Rosli, RBN, and Lieutenant Commander Muhamad Adib Izzuddin bin Haji Ramli, RBN, who actively engaged in this immersive experience alongside regional counterparts.
The 13th RMPP brought together regional and extra-regional maritime security practitioners in a week-long engagement to exchange perspectives on the evolving MARSEC landscape. Co-organised by the Information Fusion Centre (IFC) and Rajaratnam School of International Studies (RSIS), the programme featured expert lectures, strategic site visits, and enriching discussions with senior commanders.
In the face of an increasingly complex, volatile, unpredictable, and ambiguous (VUCA) maritime environment, the programme underscored the imperative of regional cooperation in addressing emerging threats such as dark vessels—non-compliant ships operating without AIS and in violation of safety and environmental regulations. The issue of safeguarding critical underwater infrastructure was also highlighted, resonating strongly with Brunei’s national maritime interests.
Beyond the operational insights, this programme also reinforced the value of partnerships, trust-building, and collective responsibility in securing our maritime domain.
