As Mozambique and Thailand have agreed to support the expansion of bilateral cooperation, particularly aviation connections, the visiting Mozambican minister sought Thailand’s cooperation on the development of airport management, covering personnel and relevant technological development.

The visiting Mozambican minister said that his country is improving national airports and air traffic control systems to meet international standards, hence the Yingluck assigned the Thai Ministry of Transport to discuss the aviation cooperation.
