VIET NAM PROMOTES AVIATION COOPERATION WITH CAMBODIA, LAOS, AND MYANMAR

   Rangoon, March 8 (VNA) -- The General Directors of the Civil Aviation Administrations of Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar and Viet Nam (CLMV) have discussed how to boost aviation transport cooperation in the sub-region and among ASEAN member countries.
   The discussion took place at the fifth Sub-Regional Meeting on Airline Cooperation held recently in Myanmar.
   The four countries of the CLMV work closely with each other to implement CLMV agreements and devise long term action plans. Currently, Myanmar is serving as representative of the CLMV at international aviation forums.
   Viet Nam will take over from Myanmar as CMLV coordinator in the 2002-03 period, during which it will organise the sixth meeting of the CLMV Civil Aviation Administration General Directors in central coastal Da Nang city in May of 2003.--VNA
