On May 8, 2026, the JICA Malaysia Office jointly held a Joint Coordinating Team (JCT) Meeting with the Malaysian Maritime Enforcement Agency (MMEA) on the activities of the Maritime Law Enforcement Advisor to MMEA.
At the meeting, the expert who has been working as the Maritime Law Enforcement Advisor with MMEA since April 2024, presented the activity report for FY2025 and the activity plan for FY2026. Both were approved unanimously.
The expert’s activities cover a wide range of areas, and training programs are planned for this year to further strengthen MMEA officers’ capacities in search and rescue, emergency response, diving operations, and forensic techniques.
JICA will continue to work closely with MMEA and related Japanese organizations, including the Japan Coast Guard, to enhance Malaysia’s maritime law enforcement capabilities and contribute to peace and stability in the Indo-Pacific region.
