Desr Sirs,
Given the fact that current situation of EOPL operation is facin= g big risk of being caught by Malaysia and Singapore, the DV strongly reque= sted to do STS at port

I agree with that for the mutual interests of = all parties.

Dennis,
Could you k= indly arrange a safe port urgently? We are familiar with a port which can b= e used immediately.

Pls kindly revert at your earliest convenience,le= t's move forward quickly.
Thanks= and best regards,
