Chinese Navy provides protection for merchant ships in Indian Ocean

[anon45]

Chinese Navy escorted over 3,000 merchant vessels in Gulf of Aden

The Chinese Navy has escorted more than 3,000 merchant vessels, including 1,400 foreign ships, over the past two years since the beginning of its escort missions in the Gulf of Aden, said Yin Zhuo, director of the Chinese Navy Advisory Committee for Informatization and member of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) National Committee, on March 9.

He noted that the Chinese naval escort fleet successfully stopped all of the hijacking attempts from pirates and fought off many pirate attacks in its designated areas.
Citing the recent evacuation of Chinese nationals in Libya, Yin demonstrated that Chinese forces are experiencing their mission change and diversify within the context of a new era. For example, it now encompasses escorting vessels, protecting and evacuating overseas Chinese citizens as well as protecting overseas assets.

The forces’ major tasks in the past were to get battle victories, to respond to wars and to protect national security. Now, he said, with the ascending of Chinese economic power, safeguarding the national economic interest has become one of the prominent factors driving development of the armed forces.

Yin noted that it is indeed very expensive to undertake escort missions in the Gulf of Aden, but this high maintenance cost is worthwhile. This sea route, accounting for 3 trillion U.S. dollars of foreign trade and nearly 1 trillion U.S. dollars of marine logistics as well as carrying more than 50 percent of the total oil and energy imports, is of great importance to China’s national economic development.

I'd be worried if China wasn't able to stop all pirate attacks on ships it was escorting.

I am sure they will have no problem with them taking out several rogue boats with men armed with pistols and soviet era rpg's.

Friend you need to understand if an East Asian navy wants to operate in Indian Ocean, they need to get logistic support from an Indian Ocean country.

Sri Lanka provides logistic support for many East Asian countries.

So your point is.???? Your thank me threads usually end up being the reason for us to degrading you here. Why do you love being the attention seeking feminol of PDF.????

Instead why don't you post these pics in Military Photo Multimedia Section with correct thread title rather than these useless misadventures you bring upon yourself, which you will most likely will abandon after few posts.

And LANKAN you are not so bold as you state in your copy pasted comments from goggle*com

If it is true it is the slap on Indian Navy and Indian Forces overall

Not really for a Navy which has been awarded the world's maritime controlling agency's IMO awards for spoiling most number of Piracy attempts in the year 2009

clueless to what to make out of this reply from you. This ain't your neck of the wood to tell what should i & what i shouldn't do. Not my fault you can't comprehend the fact that your work just wastes the bandwidth. Your sanity of seeking attention had brought this upon you, don't tell me to mind my work. Because it's my duty to acknowledge a spammer whenever a spammer is spamming. I think that should be enough maturity lesson for you today. Next time bring some credibility instead of spamming like a immature poster. Afterall i'm not the one with 8756 posts full of pics.

The Chinese Navy is part of the multinational effort to ensure safety of merchant vessels in the Indian Ocean. There are scores of other navies doing the same, right from the Suez to the Malacca straits. Navies of all civilised nations are expected to do it. The Chinese Navy is bigger than most other navies. It is only to expected from a leading world power like China to contribute substantially to the anti piracy effort. All that I understand, what I don't understand is why you start this thread to boast of Chinese efforts when China itself does not boast of them? Is it to elicit cheap cracks from like minded buddies on PDF? I surely hope not.
