中国海军司令员吴胜利来马的访问不被注意,但收获十分重大。吴胜利与我国海军达成协议,中国海军军舰可以使用沙巴州的亚庇军港,作为中途停留的地点,以加强两国之间的国防关系,看来,以后有机会要去那里参观052D了。
在中国努力扩大对南中国海控制的举措中,希望能够进入沙巴州的港口,是中国海军的远大目标。中国海军训练舰郑和号曾在2013年8月首次访问沙巴州亚庇。 马来西亚与中国的海军联合军演,也于今年9月在马六甲海峡举行,中方派出052C驱逐舰及054A护卫舰,以及一艘医院船参与。
Kota Kinabalu offered as port of call to chinese naval ships – RMN
KUALA LUMPUR: The Royal Malaysian Navy (RMN) has offered China the port of Kota Kinabalu as a stopover location to strengthen defence ties between the two countries. RMN Chief Admiral Tan Sri Abdul Aziz Jaafar said the matter was mentioned iduring a courtesy call by a top Chinese Navy delegation on him today. “Prior to this, the port of Kota Kinabalu had also received the visits of the United States and French naval ships. “The enhanced defence relations between RMN and the Chinese Navy is a move to overcome problems and issues relating to overlapping border claims.” He told reporters after receiving the courtesy call by the Commander of People’s Liberation Army Navy (PLAN) Admiral Wu Shengli and 11 senior officials, who are on a three-day visit to Malaysia. Abdul Aziz said the move was in line with the government’s aspiration to adopt the best solution to secure peace and security in South China Sea. “This is an opportunity for us to learn from their methods of operation and getting to know more of their submarines which will be docking here. “We could learn more about foreign submarine operation from them,” he said.
After the courtesy call, a special guard of honour parade was held at Dataran Wisma Pertahanan in conjunction with the retirement of Abdul Aziz on November 18. Abdul Aziz took the post of navy chief on April 1, 2008. — BERNAMA
