Themed “Strengthening Security Co-operation of ASEAN Air Forces towards ASEAN Community 2015: Education and Training”, the event aims to reinforce the relations between ASEAN member countries, fostering peace and security in the region and co-operation in fields of education and training between the countries’ air forces.
The participants agreed to establish an exchange programme, allowing young pilots to participate in training courses in other countries in the region.
Speaking at the conference, Lieutenant General Hoa stressed that the co-operation on education and training plays a core role for a more effective co-operation between regional air forces, contributing to successfully building the ASEAN Community by 2015.
He said Vietnam’s Air Defence and Air Force is willing to work with other regional air forces to strengthen ties in education and training, information and experiences sharing on flight safety, search and rescue activities to protect the region’s peace, stability and development.
