SINGAPORE: Commander-in-Chief of the Royal Thai Air Force (RTAF) Air Chief Marshal (ACM) Prajin Juntong is in Singapore on a three-day introductory visit.
He called on Senior Minister of State for Defence Mr Chan Chun Sing at the Ministry of Defence (MINDEF) on Monday afternoon.
ACM Prajin had earlier called on Chief of Air Force Major-General Ng Chee Meng after inspecting a Guard of Honour.
ACM Prajin will co-officiate the opening ceremony of Exercise Cope Tiger on Tuesday. Exercise Cope Tiger is an annual trilateral exercise conducted by the air forces of Singapore, Thailand and the United States.
MINDEF said ACM Prajin's visit underscores the close and long-standing defence ties shared between Singapore and Thailand.
The Republic of Singapore Air Force and the RTAF interact regularly through exercises, professional exchanges, and courses. These interactions have bolstered the friendship and mutual understanding among the personnel of the two air forces, said MINDEF.
