WASHINGTON, Sept 29 (KUNA) -- A delegation from Kuwait Public Authority for Civil Aviation continued its participation late Sunday at the General Assembly of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) held in the city of Montreal, Canada, until October third.
A statement by Kuwait's Civil Aviation said that the delegation, headed by Chairman Sheikh Humoud Mubarak Al-Humoud Al-Sabah, had held meetings with the Japanese and South Korean delegations, exploring ways to enhance cooperation and boost existing agreements.
During the meeting with the South Korean delegation, the sides encouraged the operation of direct flights between the two countries to boost ties and increase operational and flight numbers.
In a statement, Sheikh Humoud affirmed that the meetings reflected Kuwait's keenness to build its relations network within the international civil aviation domain.
ICAO had honored Kuwait last Tuesday for its efforts in civil aviation security, enhancing execution of ICAO principles, and attaining international standard practices. (end)
