The Chinese delegate aboard will hold talks with Singapore maritimes officials on sea rescue, anti-piracy and port management, said an official with the provincial maritime affairs bureau.
The trip is expected to promote cooperation in maritime affairs as well as in marine economy and environment, said the official.
The 3,000-tonne ship will stay in Singapore for six days.
