12 RECOMMENDATIONS Note: Shippers should remain vigilant especially in areas where the threat level is assessed to be above one in accordance with the IFC Spot Commentary 1/14 and IFC half yearly assessment report. Ships should apply the appropriate security measures (such as BMP4 or Tugs and Barge). Ship masters should also be aware and refer to the Maritime Security Charts Q6112 and Q6113, both published by the UK Hydrographic Office. The IFC seeks your observations in the course of your normal business. The IFC would like to remind mariners to be mindful of national and international laws, company and other policy requirements and also health and safety obligations, whilst recording these observations. The reporting of such events to IFC does not absolve you of your obligations towards coastal/ port/ flag authorities. RECOMMENDATIONS IFC advises: a. All mariners to report any incident timely to the nearest coastal state and IFC at the earliest possible time. b. Ships choosing to remain at anchor to be vigilant and to adopt necessary security measures. c. All mariners to take note on the description of the perpetrators and to take photos of the perpetrators if possible. d. Shippers and Seafarers operating in Sulu Sea and in vicinity of East Sabah Waters are strongly recommended to be vigilant and to establish contact with both Malaysian and Philippines Authorities to report their presence. CONTACT In case of any doubt, incident at sea, suspicious approach or unusual observed activity at sea, please contact IFC: IFC Duty Officer : IFC_DO@defence.gov.sg or ifc_do@infofusioncentre.gov.sg Tel : (Mobile) (Office) Fax :
