Indonesia offers to train Saudis in naval operations
— The Muslim states of Indonesia and Saudi Arabia are exploring naval cooperation.
Officials said Indonesia and Saudi Arabia have discussed such options as joint exercises, training and
exchange of officers.
“Indonesia is the world’s largest archipelagic country, comprising more than 17,000 islands,” Indonesian
ambassador to Riyad, AbdulRahman Fachir, said. “As such, the nation is constantly strengthening naval
defense forces to protect its vast territorial boundaries.”
In late August, the Indonesian Navy sent a new surface vesselfor a three-day visit to Saudi Arabia. The
crew of the Indonesian Navy’s KRI Bung Tomo, a British ship, was hosted by the Royal Saudi Navy
Forces and conducted a pilgrimage, called Umra.
“Saudi Arabia has been chosen for its excellent relations with Indonesia, which are highlighted by the
facilities and assistance extended to our ship and allowing its crew to perform Umra,” Fachir said.
Officials said Indonesia was offering to train Saudi navy crews in such skills as combat, search-and-rescue
as well as maritime patrols. They said Indonesia was using its British-origin navy to enhance overallrelations
with the Gulf Cooperation Council kingdom.
“Indonesia has ordered the building ofsophisticated ships in UK as part of a defense blueprint for the
country,” Fachir said.
