Only Maritime focus; or Littoral, Land, and Riverine & Lake focus?
• Guard proactively against possible seams being exploited
• Invest in routines for hand-over and monitoring of responsibilities between traditionally organised ‘commands’ and agencies– Principle of Supported – Supporting Interrelationships– Conduct continuous Civil – Military Comprehensive Planning for
Contingencies– Introduce and Conduct regular ‘Shared Awareness and Deconfliction
Meetings’ (SHADE)
• Expand and nurture new (sub) Regional Frameworkshttp://www.theblaze.com/stories/have-you-seen-the-bulletproof-texas-gunboats-equipped-with-automatic-machine-guns-that-will-battle-drug-cartels-on-the-water/

Ends, Ways and MeansPresent situation
• Paucity of assets, despite regional naval investments• Challenges remain – inter alia – in areas of:
– Interoperability– Shared Situational Awareness– Cross border cooperation and response options for
(un)likely scenarios– Civil-Military Fusion of ‘actionable intelligence’
• Insufficient persistent innovation,coherence and ‘jointness’ of all activities in the various environments

Ends, Ways and Means – 1
• Intermediate stepping stone towards envisaged (regional) “End State”:
– Linked ‘Civil – Military Command and Information Centres’, with a clear, unambiguous Chain of Command, and with an endorsed regional reach
– Coherence in Training and Education investments
• Note: the ‘End State’ must be periodically reviewed!

Ends, Ways and Means – 2a
• A flexible, adaptive Action Plan, based on assessments and influenced by concurrent ‘work on the ground’
• Strengthen the viability of sanctions and control mechanisms, and deter future violators
• Introduce and use innovative’ technologies such as Modelling and Simulation to support ‘current operations’
• Communication strategy• Adaptive legislation……

Ends, Ways and Means – 2b
• Pursue and create the conditions to attract the maritime leisure industry – ‘eco tourism’
• ‘By-products’– Job creation– Revenues (that will also be directed to support
maritime investments)– Positive domino effect for (sub)region– Economic diversity

Ends, Ways and Means – 2c
• Embark on a roadmap to be capable to conduct Maritime Irregular Warfare (MIW), “sooner than later” *
• Initiate focused Regional Training and Education programme– ‘Brokered’ or Facilitated by AMSSA?
• Research regional ‘Pooling and Sharing’ and ‘Save and Reinvest’ philosophies– Possible advice by European Defence Agency?
• Investigate, and lobby for funding support through the (EU) ‘Instrument for Stability ‘(IfS)

Ends, Ways and Means – 3b
• Craft versatility and capacity to engage “24/7”– Policing (Offshore guarding against asymmetrical
threats, illegal transits, environmental protection)– Sea Control (presence, territorial integrity, ISR, protect
SLOCs)– Humanitarian missions (SAR, disaster response and
evacuation ops)
• Maritime ISR and EW (linked to air and ground ISR)

Is there a need for a recognised Clearinghouse for all activities? – 1
• “Yes” (I personally believe so…!)• Consensus – to what level?
• In the spirit of the Paris Declaration (2005) and Accra Agenda for Action (2008): Ownership – Alignment – Harmonisation – Results – Mutual Accountability – Inclusive Partnerships

Future Risks
• Continued insecurity - Who are the real ‘enemy’?• Prepare for ‘intentional hostile acts’ by networks
that see their illegal businesses cut short / terminated:– Increased bribing, intimidation, kidnapping, murder– Complexity of the situation >
