The term "piracy" is commonly used when we want to describe the armed robbery acts, hijacking plus many other malicious acts all of them are carried out against vessels in international waters. Subject acts are done by the people intenting to steal the valuable assets or to extort the money from the owners of the vessels.

This publication produced in conjunction with IMB, INTERTANKO, INTERCARGO, and SIGTTO consists of the Introduction which is followed by five chapters - Risk Assessment; Preparation; Conduct During Transit of the High Risk Area; Actions on Encountering Pirates; Port Incident Actions and Reporting - and two annexes - Standard Ship's Message Format, and Useful Contacts. The publication concludes with a list of reference sources of information.

The content of the volume will be practical and useful for the shipping industry people with the interest in the contemporary maritime piracy, the dangers encountered by the vessels engaged in trading in the mentioned waters and measures that may be implemented to counteract. As the readers will see, the book covers literally all relevant aspects of the piracy in the east African region.
