Chennai,

Inaugurating
advanced
maritime
security
training
for
the
ASEAN
Regional
Forum
on
Monday,
Nov

Commander

Inspector-General
SPS
Basra,
Commander,
Coast
Guard
Region
(East)
said,
"The
maritime
economic
scenario
worldwide
is
in
the
middle
of
revolutionary
changes".
He
also
said
that
these
changes
and
the
emerging
sea
dependent
trade
pattern
of
the
world
would,
undoubtedly,
have
a
significant
impact
on
Asia's
maritime
and
economic
growth
in
the
next
decade
or
so.
The
present
maritime
security
environment
was
international,
in
which
not
only
the
countries
of
the
region
but
also
those
of
the
immediate
regions
were
dependent
on
safe
and
secure
shipping
routes.
Of late, under the light of modern technology, the region was emerging as the most imperilled zone owing to the rise of many non-military threats. Despite the international laws and regulations, the seas remained full of changes and concerns, he said.
