Dr.Fang Liu expressed these view while addressing to opening of the Ninth Meeting of the Directors General of Civil Aviation for ICAO’s North American, Central American, and Caribbean Region (NACC), taking place in Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago.

Dr. Fang Liu is the first Chinese attorney woman who is the twelfth and incumbent Secretary General of the ICAO. She was first appointed by the ICAO Council for a three-year term beginning August 2015, and then reappointed for a second consecutive term commencing August 2018.

“Oxford Economics has forecast that air transport and tourism in Latin America and the Caribbean could support as much as 9.7 million jobs and 430 billion dollars in regional GDP by 2034. But this 88 percent increase in regional aviation employment, and 15 percent increase in economic impact, will only be placed in greater jeopardy if better ICAO compliance is not committed to and assured here,”, she expressed.

The Secretary General stressed that the UN agency is opening and pursuing multiple avenues to lift compliance and promote the sustainable development of air connectivity among NACC States. She highlighted the “hands-on approach” undertaken through the NACC Systemic Assistance Programme, and the strategic guidance ICAO provides through its global safety and security planning.

Dr. Liu also noted that ICAO and its NACC Regional Office are partnering with lenders and donor institutions to assist the region in meeting some of its more pressing budgetary and personnel resource challenges.

In this regard, she underscored the importance of the relationship ICAO has initiated with CARICOM, the progress toward the development of the NACC Regional Safety Oversight Organization (RSOO), and the launch of regional initiatives in support of Regional Accident and Incident Investigation Organizations (RAIOs).

The Directors General in attendance were also reminded by Dr Liu that “even an enviable safety performance record cannot be taken for granted. Rather it requires constant vigilance on behalf of every player in the intensive team effort which is aviation safety.”

Here, a critical component of the region’s overall safety posture concerns the institutional strength of its civil aviation authorities (CAA). “The successes of your recent efforts toward the establishment of regional accident investigation groups will mitigate certain risks, but in the end these collaborative objectives and achievements must be complemented by strong local government commitments and investments in CAA infrastructure and resources,” Dr Liu noted. She also highlighted the crucial importance of addressing implementation gaps related to State Safety Programmes.

The challenges and opportunities set forth by Dr. Liu were explored in greater detail in a series of substantial bilateral meetings that took place during the event whereas she met with the Minister of Works and Transport of Trinidad and Tobago, the Honourable Rohan Sinanan; the Director General of the Civil Aviation Authority of Mexico, Mr. Rodrigo Vásquez, the Representative of the United States on the Council of ICAO, Ambassador Thomas Carter, and the Acting Deputy Administrator of the Federal Aviation Administration, Mr. Carl Burleson.

The others include; the Director General of the Civil Aviation Authority of Bahamas, Mr. Charles Beneby, the President of the Aeronautical Institute of Cuba, Mr. Armando Daniel López, the Permanent Secretary of Public Works and Ports of Dominica, Mrs. Denise Edwards, the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Tourism of Grenada, Ms. Arlene Buckmire-Outram, and the Chief Executive Officer of the Grenada Airports Authority, Ms. Wendy Francette-Williams, the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Aviation of Saint Kitts and Nevis, Mrs. Kaye Bass.

These meetings provided an important setting in which the specific priorities of each State were discussed. Throughout all her bilateral meetings and through her address, she acknowledged the commitment of NACC States to progress on ICAO compliance issues.

“The level of participation evident at this 9th Meeting of NACC Directors General of Civil Aviation is a clear indication of the strong and active commitment which your States have established to work together through ICAO – We must continue to confront challenges, not only through ICAO’s No Country Left Behind initiative and the other support that ICAO can provide, but also by each of you as aviation leaders in your States”, she concluded.
