Why do you need to attend the LIMA ’11 Air Chiefs’ Conference?

South China Sea: A Key Indicator for Asian-Pacific Security Cooperation in the 21st Century

Recent skirmishes between China and the Philippines as well as China and Vietnam have threatened to re-ignite the long-standing and protracted dispute in the South China Sea. The potentially resource-rich 1.3 million square mile patch of the Pacific Ocean remains a source of friction and instability between the claimant states of the Asia-Pacific region. A peaceful resolution to the South China Sea dispute is imperative for the stability and security of the region. Hence, the region’s only chance at truly confronting these challenges is via a coherent defence partnership.

The Air Chiefs’ Conference will complement the LIMA series of exhibitions by adding an alternative platform for the leading minds of Asia’s separate air-commands, to collaborate on the critical theme of South China Sea security.
