This General Assembly demonstrated the important role ANOC plays in providing a vital platform for NOCs to express their views, exchange ideas and share best practices. This is something we must continue to strengthen and promote, and I am ready to work with the ANOC Executive Council and all NOCs to ensure we do so.”
