PACIFIC PARTNERSHIP
01 July 2010 Australia is participating in the annual US-led humanitarian assistance mission. Twenty two ADF personnel have joined USNS Mercy as the first of three separate Australian contingents to rotate through the region over the next three months. The PP10 mission marks the fifth year of Australian support, and will provide engineering and medical assistance in Vietnam, Cambodia, Indonesia, East Timor and Papua New Guinea. Aimed at strengthening international relationships and interoperability for disaster relief throughout South East Asia and Oceania, ADF personnel will be based out of USNS Mercy in Vietnam, Cambodia, Indonesia and East Timor. Additionally, RAN assets HMA Ships Labuan and Tarakan will provide assistance with ship to shore movements in some countries.
