Despite the fact there's around 200 ships at anchorage at any time in the Singapore Strait, it's not everyday you get to see a semi-sub in action. What an amazing feat of engineering and absolutely worth getting up at 3.30am for this opportunity.

With 2 separate shows, many conferences, receptions and scheduled meetings, we had a very tiring but excellent 3 days and evenings at Sea Asia and SMW, meeting lots of potentially new supporters, as well as many old friends, of course! We must keep raising our profile, however!

A very busy Singapore Maritime Week coming up and we'll be at Sea Asia - please do swing by our booth, K46A, to learn more about the Mission's vital work here in Singapore. #SeaAsia2025 #Seafarersmatter

Port Chaplain, Toh Soon Kok and Manager, Susan Koh enjoyed the opportunity to chat about our support of seafarers in Singapore with Simon Grainge, CEO of @iswan_org and Juan J. Gil of Aventra Group, after the excellent "Nurturing Wellbeing at Sea" session at APM last Friday.

Pleased to be able to pass on some premium quality 'Zero Marine' reusable bottles at Jurong Port today. Clearly, they were well received by the crews of vessels Serene Ocean and Prospect Ocean and the kind donation by P Ship Systems is most appreciated. Thank you Giorgos Kyriazis
