The Mobile Cooperation Team (MCT) dispatched by the JCG provided technical guidance to the crew of PCG patrol vessels, including a 97m class patrol vessel and two 44m class patrol vessels (both Japan-provided patrol vessels), in relation to onboard boat maneuvering training and firefighting training, which are directly related to field operations. 

The JCG will continue to provide capacity building support to PCG.
