On last November, the 23rd and and 24th, the French company Egis Avia and the Directorate General for Civil Aviation (DGAC) organized a Malaysian-French session on Collaborative Decision Making (CDM), under the kind auspices of the Department of Civil Aviation Malaysia.
France and Malaysia already enjoy an intense partnership in the field of aeronautics, be it for manufacturing of airplane components, MRO or training. And this trend will definitely grow bigger in the coming years with further involvement of our key players like EADS and SAFRAN Groups, and all their subsidiaries.
France has been a pioneer in the implementation of CDM in Europe. Paris Charles de Gaulle airport, which is now the main European airport, is the only major airport having implemented CDM in full operations. This was completed one year ago, in November 2010.
This event can be the first step in a series of meetings and actions in this new field of cooperation between France and Malaysia.
