In accordance with the year plan approved by the “Facilitation and Security Committee” at the beginning of this year, the Macau International Airport (MIA) conducted an “Aircraft Bomb Threat Exercise” from 21:30 last night till 01:00 this early morning. The exercise simulated the scenario of a piece of luggage with explosives found in an aircraft. The airport then declared emergency and all relevant parties got ready. The exercise was a form of joint training to assess the effectiveness of the procedures and contingency plans. In addition, it also aimed at increasing the awareness of the vital role aviation security personnel play in maintaining a safe and efficient operating environment for civil aviation. Coordinated by Public Security Forces, the exercise also involved the participation of Unitary Police Service, Macao Customs, Public Security Coordination Office, Judiciary Police, Port Authority, Health Bureau, Fire Brigade, Civil Aviation Authority, CAM-Macau International Airport Company Ltd., ADA-Administration of Airports, Ltd., Macau Security Company Ltd., Air Macau Company Ltd., Menzies Macau Aviation Services and so on.
