How many countries have signed MoUs for the National Maritime Heritage Complex project?
- A.7
- B.13
- C.24
- D.35
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is 13. The Minister told the Council that this many countries, among them Portugal, the United Arab Emirates, Vietnam, Thailand, the Netherlands, Denmark, Oman, Israel, Germany, the Republic of Korea, Italy, New Zealand and Singapore, had signed memoranda of understanding for collaboration on the project. Option D is the trap, because that is the size of the proposed pipeline of partnerships towards which talks with several more nations are under way, not the number already signed. Options A and C are wrong because neither figure appears anywhere in the release. The MoUs enable the exchange of artefacts, replicas and ship models along with research collaboration and cultural engagement, which is why the Minister called the project a powerful instrument of maritime diplomacy.
