The delegation is headed by Captain Tran Xuan Luong, Deputy Commander and Chief of Staff of Coast Guard Region 2 under the Vietnam Coast Guard Command.
The delegation is scheduled to pay courtesy visits to leaders of the JCG’s 3rd Regional Coast Guard and Yokohama Office, take part in a culinary culture festival, share working experience, and drill in towing troubled ships with their Japanese peers.
