China Coast Guard ship visits South Korea (5)

China Coast Guard (CCG) for the first time sent its ship to visit an overseas counterpart in South Korea between June 13 and 17, 2016. The five-day visit included exchange activities between China and South Korea’s coast guards where people visited and learned from each other’s ships. The CCG ship also held an open day for local residents in Jeju Island of South Korea. Over 200 people visited the ship. The two countries’ coast guard departments also held joint drill on inspection of a ship suspected of trafficking. The CCG ship left from Dalian, northeast China’s Liaoning province, on June 13 and sailed over 20 hours before arriving at Jeju Island. (Photo: Courtesy of Jiangsu flotilla of the China Coast Guard)
