KUCHING: The Malaysian Maritime Enforcement Agency (MMEA) will deploy a Turkish-made multipurpose mission ship (MPMS), worth US$68.8mil (RM304.29mil), in the waters of Sarawak.
Its director-general Maritime Admiral Datuk Mohd Rosli Abdullah said deploying significant maritime assets in Sarawak can strengthen the security and sovereignty of the state's waters, particularly in the South China Sea.
