In order to comply with the ISPS Code, PASB had identify the processes and method of implementation in the vicinity of port area that need to be observed, including the security assessment and developing the security plan. Among the challenges faced by PASB in implementing ISPS code includes financial, lack of training among crews, time and need to keep abreast with the latest requirement of ISPS Code.
