Greetings from MOLIT Greetings from MOLIT Since the Chicago Convention in 1944, aviation has grown faster than any other mode of transportation. The Fourth Industrial Revolution has already begun, and we face it every day at the center of the aviation industry. In terms of numbers, the aviation industry carried nearly four billion passengers and around 55 million tons of freight to every corner of the world in 2017. In terms of technology, advanced unmanned aerial vehicles such as drones have improved rapidly, and cutting-edge technologies such as augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) are being integrated into the aviation sector. In addition, through a number of efforts to address Kim, Yong-Seog environmental problems such as global warming, we are Director General for Airport and now moving into the era of a new paradigm, completely Air Navigation Facilities Policies Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and different from the past. Transport, Republic of Korea 4

Despite its short aviation history, Korea has grown rapidly to become the world’s seventh largest country in the air transport sector. I think it has been possible because of the enthusiastic efforts of everyone engaged in the aviation industry, and the support and cooperation of ICAO member countries. Since 2001, Korea began running the free ICAO fellowship training programme in order to support member countries and contribute to the development of global aviation. Currently, we have more than 20 education programmes and educate more than 300 students. Korea is actively cooperating in the ‘No Country Left Behind’ initiative, one of the most important goals of ICAO, by conducting free training programmes for member states. I would like to express my gratitude for the interest and encouragement of all member countries in FTP in Korea in 2018. In 2019, we will endeavor to benefit member countries by developing new education programmes and by expanding local training programmes from Latin America and Africa to the Pacific region. I would like to ask member countries for their continued interest and support so that the Korea FTP can continue to develop further in the future. Thank you. 5

The Voice of Participants Q1. Please introduce yourself and what do you do in your organization? I have worked as an Air Traffic Management (ATM) Official in ATM division, Air Navigation Services Department (ANS). I have the experiences in ATM field for nearly 5 years in regulator side. My responsibilities are mainly oversight safety and establish the regulations in Air Traffic Management area such as Air Traffic Service (ATS), Airspace Management (ASM) and Air Traffic Flow Management (ATFM). Vanatta Noipan Q2. What was the course you participated in and why did you choose (Thailand) that course? I participated in Radar Approach Control (A-4) course. The reason why I applied this course because it is good opportunity to enhance knowledge, skills and build up the capability for authority technical staff who involved in ATM area in order to enable become proficiency and competency for Surveillance Approach Control which can contribute to drive aviation forward. 31

The Voice of Participants Q3. Please let me know the great things and suggestions for improvement regard to the course and the Programme. This course provides me all the great things not only the knowledge/skills/information about the radar approach control but also learning Korea culture(history of Korea, nice people, local food in various part such as Seoul, Chong-ju and Jeju) and exchange culture among participants as well. Q4. What was the most impressive thing in Korea aviation industry? - Airport system: PBB, BHS, Aircraft ground power supply and etc. - Navaids - The operation of ATC to provide the services within the limitation of airspace Q5. Would you recommend Korea FTP to a colleague? I will certainly recommend Korea FTP to my colleagues and other people. Lastly, my educational related to ATM pursuits would not be possible without generous support from fellowship sponsors from Korea Civil Aviation Association, Korea Airports Corporation (KAC), The Korea International Cooperation Agency (KOICA), Korea Civil Aviation Training Center (KCATC), and all staff. Thank you for enabling this opportunity. Your generosity has inspired me to help others and give back to the community and enhance the aviation industry in my country moving forward. 32

Q1. Please introduce yourself and what do you do in your organization? I am Simon TERA from Republic of Mali. I am civil engineer, I work for ASECNA (air tra ffic service provider in 17 African states plus France). I am chief unit maintenance airport and ground aids. I am in charge of the maintenance of airfields, aircraft movement area, terminal and maintenance buildings of six (06) airports in my country. I am actually the acting chief unit of communication, navigation and surveillance service. I work at the head quarter of our organization o ffice in our capital Bamako. Q2. What was the course you participated in and why did you choose that course? I participated in the Airport construction and operation course. I choose this course because in our main airport in Bamako, we have no compliance with the apron marking, and the VGDS. We still use marshaler for the aircraft docking while we have the passenger loading bridges. In the certification process, that was one of the most no compliance. The apron marking do not matches with the AGDS. I was choose as the leader of the team for remaking of the whole marking of our apron. Unfortunately when I was in the IAAA for the fellowship course, my theme was not retained by our group for the action plan. We do not have also air traffi c management service, For these two reasons I choose the airport construction and operation course. Q3. Please let me know the great things and suggestions for improvement regard to the course and the Programme. I suggest for the course and Programme, more site visit at the airport in order to see works and operation in live, more workshop and cultural days, if possible more contacts with Korean people. Q4. What was the most impressive thing in Korea aviation industry? The most impressive thing in Korea aviation industry for me was the apron control system with the airport surface detection equipment and the ICN Advanced surface movement guidance and control system, which provide and maintain a very high level of safety. Q5. Would you recommend Korea FTP to a colleague? Simon TERA I will always highly recommend to my colleague Korea FTP because IAAA is one of (Mali) the best aviation academy nowadays in the world. 33
