The Chief of Staff of the Royal Swedish Navy (RSwN), Rear Admiral (RADM) Anders Grenstad, called on Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Defence Teo Chee Hean, at the Ministry of Defence this afternoon. RADM Grenstad, who is in Singapore for a farewell visit from 1 to 3 Nov 2010, also called on Chief of Defence Force Lieutenant-General Neo Kian Hong and Chief of Navy RADM Chew Men Leong, and visited the Changi Command and Control Centre earlier. RADM Grenstad's visit underscores the strong defence partnership and long-standing friendship between Singapore and Sweden. Under RADM Grenstad’s leadership, professional interactions between the Republic of Singapore Navy (RSN) and the RSwN have grown in scope. The two navies have shared expertise and experience in mine countermeasure and submarine training and operations. Both navies also engage regularly in a wide range of professional exchanges, cross-attendance of courses, visits and exercises. These interactions have enhanced the cooperation and professionalism of the RSwN and the RSN, and deepened the rapport and understanding between their officers and men. 1 RADM Anders Grenstad (right) hosted by Commander of the Maritime Security Task Force RADM Jackson Chia (centre) and Head of Information Fusion Centre LTC Lim Chye Khiang Nicholas (left) at the Changi Command and Control Centre. 2 .
