Defence, security exhibitions a medium to evaluate national defence — Minister

KUALA LUMPUR, May 6 — Defence Services Asia (DSA) and National Security Exhibition (Natsec) Asia 2024 are able to give an idea of whether the country’s defence assets are in line with the latest technological advances.

Defence Minister Datuk Seri Mohamed Khaled Nordin said the exhibition, which brings together defence industry players from around the world, is also able to bring good benefits to all parties.

“This exhibition can also lead to the building of understanding that can benefit the region,” he told reporters after officiating the Defence Ministry (Mindef) Pavilion at the exhibition today.

Meanwhile, in a statement, DSA said the pavilion will be a one-stop centre to showcase the functions and services implemented by departments and agencies under Mindef.

The pavilion, located in Hall 11, also promotes services and initiatives offered by the ministry and the Malaysian Defence Industry Council.

Apart from the exhibition, DSA said various programmes were also held at the pavilion, including networking sessions, government-to-government programmes, and pocket talks.
