The meeting highlighted the continuous support and collaboration between the two countries in various areas, including border control, maritime security, and disaster management.

Enhancing operations against illegal activities

Japan has proven to be one of Kenya’s most reliable partners in the fight against illegal activities, particularly unreported and unregulated fishing. To bolster the efforts of the Kenya Coast Guard Service, Japan has provided 17 vessels, enabling more effective operations against these unlawful practices.

Improving airport security and cross-border movement

The Japanese government has also played a crucial role in enhancing security measures at key entry points in Kenya. They supported the installation of facial recognition technology at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA), ensuring enhanced surveillance and identification capabilities. Additionally, their assistance in operationalizing the Busia Border Post has facilitated smooth cross-border movement of goods and people.

One of Kenya’s top priorities is the implementation of Integrated Border Management as a long-term strategy to enhance border security.
