Two Pakistan Naval Ships Dock In Port Klang


PORT KLANG, April 4 (Bernama) -- Two Pakistan Navy vessels today anchored at the South Point of the North Klang Port for a three-day visit to enhance bilateral ties between the two countries and their naval forces.

They are 'Badr', a destroyer, and 'Nasr', a combat support ship with a combined crew of more than 300 personnel.

Mission commander Commodore Kamran Khan said in a press conference here on board 'Nasr' that besides engaging in a joint exercise with the Royal Malaysian Navy, the crew would also visit the defence ministry, organise receptions for visitors and be involved in a friendly soccer match with the Malaysian navy.

He said that tomorrow, the visitors were scheduled to carry out cleaning and painting works at an orphanage in Sungai Pinang, Kelang as part of their humanitarian work.

He said this was the maiden visit for 'Badr' in Malaysia, while 'Nasr' had been sailing here regularly, especially to provide support for Pakistan naval ships which participated in LIMA, the bi-annual military showcase in Langkawi.

Kamran described the ties between the two naval forces as good, adding that last March, they were involved in a joint naval exercise, 'AMAN', in Pakistan where the Malaysian Navy sent 'KD Kedah' and its crew to participate.

He said Pakistan would like to study the possibility of placing its female naval personnel on board warships like what was being done in the Malaysian Navy.

Currently, Pakistan Navy female personnel were working in the information technology, medical and education sectors of the navy.

Pakistan Navy crew engage in community work in Malaysia

KARACHI: The crew of two Pakistani naval vessels, Badr and Nasr, currently anchored at Port Klang, Malaysia, carried out community work at the Klang Alkhairiah Orphanage, a message received from Kuala Lumpur said on Sunday. The Pakistani ships were in Malaysia on a four-day visit to bolster bilateral defence ties and as a gesture of goodwill. The 18-member crew visited the Alkhairiah Orphanage at Klang and carried out community work including painting, cleaning and other refurbishing work. The officers in charge of the crew distributed gifts and souvenirs among the 45 children housed at the orphanage. Later, the children were taken to Port Klang where they were given a guided tour of the two ships. The management thanked the Pakistan Navy for carrying out the welfare work at the orphanage, handing out gifts and for arranging their visit to the ships. Both the ships were opened for visitors on Sunday.

Quite correct there, arsalanaslam123. The Amazon Class (Type 21) are classed as Frigates by the RN. Did the PN designate them as Destroyers?
Considering their size/displacement and armament/capabilities, they would slot in as Frigates.
