An Australian Warship, HMAS PARRAMATTA, will visit the Kingdom of Tonga from 14 to17 June 2004 as part of the ongoing Defence Relationship with Tonga.
This will be HMAS PARRAMATTA’s first overseas visit since Commissioning on 4 October 2003.
The main purpose of the visit is to promote continuation of the strong relationship between the Australian Defence Force and Tonga. It will also be an opportunity for the crew to undergo recreation prior to participating in Exercise RIMPAC - an annual United States led multilateral exercise involving seven countries.
Further information on HMAS PARRAMATTA’s visit to Tonga visit can be obtained by contacting the Australian Maritime Surveillance Adviser, Lieutenant Commander Mark Korsten, on 18248 or msat@defence.gov.to
