 　　SINGAPORE, Dec. 18 (Xinhua) -- Two Chinese Navy ships called at Singapore's Changi port on Sunday on their way back to China from an escort mission in the Gulf1 of Aden and the waters off Somali.

　　The destroyer Wuhan and the frigate2 Yulin were part of the ninth flotilla dispatched by China in July to guard commercial ships in the troubled waters against pirates.
　　They are stopping over in Singapore for three days to replenish3 fuel, water and other logistic supplies, officials said.
　　The task force will also have exchanges with the Singapore side on anti-pirate efforts, and visit Singapore's Information Fusion4 Center, which is aimed to promote collaboration5 and information sharing in maritime6 security.
