Trawlers
拖網漁船
KOTA KINABALU:
Since 2017, more fishermen in Sabah’s east coast are installing the Automatic
Identification System (AIS) and very high frequency (VHF) radios on their
trawlers to boost security.
Fishermen have realised the importance of the move to enable them to communicate
with the security command centre when facing criminal elements.
Esscom had asked all fishing and tugboat operators to equip their vessels with
the AIS and VHF radios by August 2016 in view of a spate of cross-border
kidnappings by Filipino gunmen along the Sabah borders with southern
Philippines.
Esscom could provide assistance or security if it could determine the exact
location of the trawlers.
