00:22 and security than to sail and to operate together, sama-sama.
00:26 Through multilateral exercises like sama-sama, through your leadership, we can protect, strengthen,
00:33 mend the fabric of peace.
00:37 Fundamentally, exercise sama-sama is about enhancing interoperability, fostering regional
00:45 cooperation, and tackling non-traditional challenges that transcend our borders.

01:02 of threats together.
