After seeing 6 navy ships this week from Thailand, Australia and New Zealand I was not expecting more.... this morning when I woke up this was parked outside. First time I have seen a Navy vessel parked in Tseung Kwan O bay and for sure the first Bangladeshi Navy Vessel I've seen. Vessel departed not long after I took this to park in the main harbour.
