He provided a brief overview of Vietnam’s maritime search and rescue force and highlighted the achievements attained in recent years.

Secretary-General Kitack Lim highly commended the Center's activities and emphasized the crucial role of the Vietnam Maritime Search and Rescue Coordination Center in assisting seafarers, passengers, and citizens at sea. He pointed out the significance of their work, particularly in the busy international shipping lanes of the South China Sea, one of the busiest maritime routes globally with dense traffic.

In response to the Center’s proposals, Secretary-General Lim expressed his commitment to considering ways the IMO could provide support, including through training courses and projects aimed at enhancing science and technology.
"I am very proud of the efforts made by the Vietnamese search and rescue force. You should be proud of yourselves as well. This way, the global community will remember the challenges and dedication of the Vietnam maritime search and rescue force in saving lives at sea," affirmed IMO Secretary-General Kitack Lim./.
