*********************************
     The Director-General of Civil Aviation, Mr Victor Liu, visited Chengdu, Sichuan from July 10 to 13. During his stay, Mr Liu attended the Civil Air Navigation Services Organisation (CANSO) Asia Pacific Conference 2024, and visited different aviation organisations and entities to learn about the latest developments of civil aviation in the Mainland and to conduct in-depth discussions.

Mr Liu was invited to speak in an expert panel during the conference, where he shared his insights on how modernisation of air traffic control in Asia Pacific can be accelerated from the management and operational perspectives.

Mr Liu welcomed the launch of "Airspace Asia Pacific 2025" in Hong Kong and said, "While Hong Kong being an international aviation hub, we are honoured to host such major event at our world-class conference and exhibition facilities, and we welcome the participants to come and experience the vibrancy of our city as well as our hospitality."
 
     Mr Liu also visited the Civil Aviation Flight University of China (CAFUC), the Second Research Institute of CAAC (CAACSRI) and the Chengdu Tianfu International Airport after the conference, including their facilities. Mr Liu called on and exchanged views with the management teams of these organisations and entities, including the President of the CAFUC, Mr Guan Lixin; and the Director of the CAACSRI, Mr Liu Weidong, on various topics including flight crew training, the latest aviation research and technological development as well as airport operations, and looked into ways to foster closer collaborations.
