Sri Lanka Navy hosts the Indian Ocean Naval Symposium
Sri Lanka Navy hosts the Indian Ocean Naval Symposium (IONS) Operational Issues Workshop attended by representatives from 14 countries. Conducted under the theme of “Enhancing Operational Efficiency through Sharing of Information and Coordination”, the workshop will be held at the Galadari Hotel in Colombo from 28th to 29th February 2012.
The Indian Ocean Naval Symposium was launched in 2008 as a regional maritime security initiative in recognition of the centrality of 'Constructive Engagement' as the primary means of achieving and assuring mutually beneficial maritime security, stability, safety, and consequent collective prosperity amongst all littoral states of the Indian Ocean Region (IOR). It provides a regional forum through which the 'Chiefs-of-Navy' of all the littoral states of the IOR can periodically meet to constructively engage one another through the creation and promotion of regionally relevant mechanisms, events and activities.
Sri Lanka Navy, which extends its unstinting support for IONS, is showing its commitment to maintain the regional momentum generated through the regional maritime security initiative alive by hosting the operational workshop, which is expected to enhance Maritime Security and Freedom of the Sea.
The Operational Issues Workshop held in Colombo will provide an opportunity for member Nations to raise issues relevant to Maritime Domain Awareness and sharing of information with a view to achieve better coordination and enhance the operational capability of all entities involved in Maritime Security Operations in the Indian Ocean region.
It will be an opportunity to increase the mutual understanding of Maritime Security issues and the related operational concerns. It will also be a forum to discuss and make recommendation for the enhancement of Domain Awareness and information sharing to overcome the Operational Limitations of everyone involved in day to day management of maritime security of the member Nations.
