CAAS' safety charter lifts off

Eighty organisations sign Singapore's first aviation safety charter.

The Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore, together with 80 aviation organisations, signed the Charter for a Strong and Positive Safety Culture in Singapore during the annual Aviation Safety Forum.

The charter signatories included airlines, aircraft manufacturers, maintenance, repair and overhaul organisations, the airport operator, ground handlers, and various unions and associations in the aviation sector.

The first-ever safety charter for the Singapore aviation sector recognised various safety-related challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic and expressed the shared commitment by leaders to jointly uphold safety standards and strengthen safety culture in their respective organisations as air travel recovers.

CAAS Director-General Han Kok Juan said, "Aviation safety must be a non-negotiable and the top priority of the Singapore aviation sector as air travel recovers, and we ramp up operations. The Safety Charter is a statement of the shared commitment by leaders of the Singapore aviation sector to uphold the highest safety standards as we work together to rebuild and reclaim Singapore's position as a global air hub this year."

The Aviation Safety Forum brought together over 200 leaders in the Singapore aviation sector in a physical meeting to discuss reviving air travel and issues in aviation safety as the sector prepares for recovery.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
