why not?

we have not enough money to buy brand new boats and the navy needs all the boats it can get, even hand me downs from friendly neighbors?

if "beg" affects your pride, I will replace it with "request" .

"life must goes on"

Spider, nice posting regardiing the Decommissioning of 6 RSN Sea Wolves MGB. I don't think its really for scrap. We pray that Singapore Government will donate those Sea Wolves to Philippine Navy at friendship price. Same with the South Koreans by giving their PKM Gunboats at price that our Philippine Navy can't ignore to pass.

Sea Wolves will also bolster the security of the Philippine Archipelago and strengthen ties between the two countries since Singaporean Army use our facilities in a Mutual Military Exercise with the Philippine Army.

For sure, its a strip-down version of Sea Wolves (without the Missiles) that will be donate just like when RSN newly acquired those boats when it only has the 57mm Gun as its main weapon.

amen...

we don't need the missiles, just the platforms.

the navy is sorely lacking patrol boats.
To avoid criticism, write nothing, say nothing, do nothing, BE NOTHING.

Be realistic guys, Singapore is run like a business, it just doesn't give away assets.

Beg is not the right word. Buy is.

I think the Philippines doesn't BEG for what we need? Philippines Government can buy their own equipment if the right financial payment scheme is agreed on both sides. The US Navy are giving or donating their Big destroyers to the Philippines Navy but we declined and for what reason?

The cost of bringing those ships back to its Serviceable Status is what makes it costlier than buying a recently Decommission Patrol boats from other friendly countries like South Korea.

We can afford to buy the 3 Peacock-class/Jacinto-class Patrol corvettes from the British and PKMs from South Korea coz the Government thinks that it is a COST-EFFECTIVE way of acquiring them.
Even the US is building its own Coastal ships or Brown-water ships for their homeland security like the Littoral Combat Ship.
