yes, 7 will be nice, depend Gov budget,
anyway, need to divided to size, more easy to calculate procurement cost and operation cost,
for large ship, means 1000++ Tons? for me, i'm sure yes, now days asean country coast guard ship is bigger and bigger,
we should have few large ship like 2k tons level, but still depend budget an gov policy. like damen maritime patrol ship (OPV) can operate in sea state 9, cost $100~150 mil
1800 tonnage -2400 tonnage would be big enough.anyway, need to divided to size, more easy to calculate procurement cost and operation cost,

Don't forget APMM will need more air assets as well to do a thorough job, especially patrol aircraft. Now 3 Dauphin helicopters & 2 Bombardier flying boat good for basic duties only. Need good aircraft for patrolling & SAR, right now no need big one like C-130, small light/medium aircraft should be ok for the time being.

Atr 72 mpa would be a nice addition.
it cheap and maintenance easily available and low cost.
