Expert Dialogue on real time monitoring of flight data, including the black box - The need for international standards in the age of cloud computing and big data

Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, 27 May 2014

Closing remarks

​I would like to thanks the Malaysian Ministry of Communications and Multimedia and especially the Minister for devoting so much of his time to the event. Thanks also to MCMC for helping ITU organise the event and providing these excellent facilities and hospitality in the centre of Kuala Lumpur. Thanks especially to Sulyna and her team and Norini for being an excellent MC. And thanks to you the participants, over 100 invited experts for having a really good dialogue and agreeing on some clear actions to take us forward. Speaking for ITU and my colleagues we look forward to working with you in the future to implement these actions and further contribute to civil aviation safety.

We will work towards having a further gathering like this early next year to review where we are with these actions.

Thanks especially to ICAO for its cooperation and especially Nancy for being here. We could not have done it without her. I am sure we will be working every more closely in the future.

So thank you all and I wish you a safe journey home.
