It aims to build capacity and expertise in responding to natural disasters in any circumstance, but also provides an opportunity for the three sides to step up experience and cultural exchanges, contributing to strengthening the solidarity and trust among them.

It is the first drill organised under an agreement inked at a defence ministers’ meeting among the three countries in Hanoi in 2019.
