GUANGZHOU, Sept. 2 -- The "China-Singapore Exercise Cooperation 2024" joint maritime exercise kicked off at a military port in Zhanjiang City, south China's Guangdong Province, on the morning of September 1.

As the third edition of the exercise, the "China-Singapore Exercise Cooperation 2024" joint maritime exercise features longer duration, more drill subjects and deeper exchanges than the former two events. Based on exchanges in professional fields, the exercise will be conducted in three stages including planning at the harbor, professional exchanges and joint maritime drills. It is scheduled to conclude on September 5.

Participating ships from Chinese and Singaporean navies completed assembly on August 29. The two sides have carried out planning, discussion and multiple exchanges in professional fields, and held deck receptions, ship open days, city visits, ball matches and other cultural activities.

In recent years, focusing on forging the brand of the "China-Singapore Exercise Cooperation" series of joint maritime exercise, the navies of the two countries have arranged mutual ship visits and joint exercises and training many times. The Chinese Navy had dispatched taskforces twice to Singapore to participate in the "China-Singapore Exercise Cooperation" joint exercise between 2015 and 2023 and achieved complete success.
