He handed over a gift of one million dollars on behalf of Government of India for the establishment of a language and IT laboratory in the School. Addressing the Officers at the School, he hoped that the laboratory would substantially contribute to sharpen the language and IT skills of Air Defence and Air Force personnel of Vietnam, read a government statement.

I am pleased to handover a gift of 5 million Indian Rupees for procurement of training aids. I believe this shall increase teaching efficacy and result in better and easy assimilation by the trainees at the University: RM
