Pacific Armies Management Seminar to be held

The event will cover three plenary sessions, focusing on the topics of land forces’ initial responses to humanitarian assistance/disaster response (HADR), multilateral cooperation and enhancing roles in regional cooperation for HADR.

The involved parties also will exchange measures to promote cooperation between armies in the region to cope with threats posed by natural disasters, contributing to the maintenance of regional stability.

The co-hosting of the seminar is expected to help the VPA enhance its friendship, mutual understanding and trust with other countries’ armies as well as demonstrate the active and responsible role of the VPA in regional common issues.

PAMS is an annual multinational military seminar, providing a forum for senior-level (lieutenant colonel to major general, or national equivalent) officers from regional ground forces and security forces to exchange views. 

It is not only a forum to further understanding of subjects studied, but also an opportunity to establish and enhance a set of strong interpersonal relationships among the future leaders of regional armies and security forces.

The General Staff of the Viet Nam People’s Army (VPA) and the U.S. Army Pacific (USARPAC) will co-host the event.
