Malaysia: MMEA detains tanker for anchoring without permission near Port Klang

The Malaysian Maritime Enforcement Agency (MMEA) on Wednesday (23 April) said it detained a tanker for anchoring without permission at 5.9 nautical miles west of Pulau Pintu Gedong at about 3.15pm on 22 April.

The ship was operated by a 36-year-old Thai captain with 16 crew members aged between 20 and 55 years, consisting of 13 Thais including two women, two Myanmar nationals and an Indonesian national.

The inspection found that the ship had committed an offence under the Merchant Shipping Ordinance 1952 by not obtaining permission from the Director-General of the Malaysian Maritime Department and for failing to fly the Malaysian flag.

The tanker’s Second Deck Officer and Second Engineer were taken to the Pulau Indah marine police jetty for further action.
