SINGAPORE: The Chief of Royal Malaysian Navy Admiral Tan Sri Mohd Reza Mohd Sany who is in Singapore for his three-day farewell visit called on the republic’s Minister for Defence Dr Ng Eng Hen at the Parliament House this afternoon.

During their meeting, Dr Ng thanked Mohd Reza for his contributions in maintaining strong ties between the Republic of Singapore Navy (RSN) and the Royal Malaysian Navy (RMN), said a statement by the republic’s Ministry of Defence (Mindef) here today.

“They also discussed the importance of keeping lines of communication open,” said the ministry.

Mohd Reza, who will be in Singapore till Friday (Nov 4), also called on Chief of Defence Force Lieutenant-General Melvyn Ong and Chief of Navy Rear-Admiral (RADM) Aaron Beng, after inspecting a Guard of Honour at the Ministry of Defence this morning.

As part of his programme, Mohd Reza will visit RSS Singapura at Changi Naval Base Friday morning, where he will be hosted aboard the Formidable-class frigate, RSS Supreme.

Mohd Reza will also attend the opening ceremony of the 30th edition of Exercise Malapura, the flagship bilateral exercise between the RSN and RMN which will be conducted from Nov 4 to Nov 14, 2022.
