18 RECOMMENDATIONS IFC advises: a. All mariners to report any incident timely to the nearest coastal state and IFC at the earliest possible time. b. Ships moving at slow speed or are choosing to remain at anchor in areas where sea robbery/theft is regularly reported should remain vigilant and adopt necessary and/or added security measures. c. All mariners to take note on the description of the perpetrators and to take photos of the perpetrators if possible. Where available, CCTV footage capturing the incident should be provided to the coastal state authorities for follow-on investigation. d. Shippers and Seafarers operating in Sulu Sea and in vicinity of East Sabah Waters are strongly recommended to be vigilant and to establish contact with both Malaysian and Philippines Authorities to report their presence. e. Shippers are advised to take note that the threats of terrorist activities in the maritime domain remain a possibility in the region due to ISIS and Al-Qaeda. The possibility of these threats were previously quoted in Al-Qaeda s online magazine Resurgence, which called for the disruption of global trade and shipping through acts of piracy, amongst other tactics. Shippers are therefore advised to exercise vigilance and adopt self-defence measures as stated in BMP4, especially when transiting narrow choke points and areas which are known to have encountered incidents of sea robbery/piracy. Note: Information herein was derived from various internal and external sources such as Focal Points, OPCENs and other maritime stakeholders. Shippers should remain vigilant especially in areas where the threat level is assessed to be above one in accordance with the IFC Assessment Report (ASSESSREP). Ships should apply the appropriate security measures (such as BMP4, Tugs and Barge Guide or Guide for Tankers Operating in Asia). Ship masters should also be aware and refer to the Maritime Security Charts Q6112 and Q6113, both published by the UK Hydrographic Office. The IFC seeks your observations in the course of your normal business. The IFC would like to remind mariners to be mindful of national and international laws, company and other policy requirements and also health and safety obligations, whilst recording these observations. The reporting of such events to IFC does not absolve you of your obligations towards coastal/ port/ flag authorities.
