THE Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore (CAAS) has inked agreements
with its counterparts from Macedonia and Rwanda to provide aviation
training in the two countries.
The agreements reaffirm Singapore's commitment to advance civil
aviation internationally in
support of the International Civil Aviation
Organization's 'No Country Left Behind' initiative, said CAAS in a
statement on Thursday.
The pacts were signed by the CAAS director-general Kevin Shum, the
director-general of Civil Aviation Agency of the Republic of Macedonia,
Mr Goran Jandreoski, and the director-general of the Rwanda Civil
Aviation Authority, Mr Silas Udahemuka, on the sidelines of the
Singapore Airshow on Wednesday.
Under the agreements, CAAS, through its training arm - the Singapore
Aviation Academy - will develop and conduct relevant training programmes
to support aviation development in Macedonia and Rwanda.
Said Mr Jandreoski: "Such support means a lot especially in respect of
knowledge quality improvement of our personnel and new skills acquiring
in the field of aviation safety, navigation, airport security as well as
other fields that are very important for the civil aviation
development."
Mr Udahemuka said, "Partnering with CAAS will impart aviation knowledge
and skills in our nascent human resource, which is a much needed
building block for Rwanda to steadily achieve the required standards for
a safe and secure aviation industry."
