She was accompanied by State Minister for Civil Aviation and Tourism M Rashiduzzaman Millat, who attended as a special guest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Minister expressed her gratitude to the French government and Thales for their technological contribution, noting that the new system increases airspace management capabilities manifold and supports the government\u2019s vision of transforming the airport into a global aviation hub.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Following her remarks, State Minister M Rashiduzzaman Millat highlighted that a new technology-based era has begun, emphasizing that the modern system will foster regional cooperation and create opportunities for integrated airspace management, provided there is a continuous focus on developing skilled human resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to technical experts, the launch of the ATMC brings transformative changes by increasing the accuracy and punctuality of flight operations while reducing security risks. The center is expected to play a vital role in meeting international standards, increasing foreign exchange earnings through overflight revenue, and expanding the country\u2019s Flight Information Region (FIR).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Air Vice Marshal Md Mostafa Mahmood Siddiq, Chairman of the Civil Aviation Authority of Bangladesh (CAAB), noted that the facility overcomes long-standing limitations by introducing a state-of-the-art ATM-CNS system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>French ambassador in Bangladesh Jean-Marc S\u00e9r\u00e9-Charlet lauded the cooperation as a symbol of mutual trust between the two nations, expressing hope that French support for Bangladesh\u2019s aviation development would continue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"599\" src=\"https:\/\/thecurrentview.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/f7d71b0e-3732-4c3b-9b20-3273d50c4952-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5899\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thecurrentview.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/f7d71b0e-3732-4c3b-9b20-3273d50c4952-1.jpg 900w, https:\/\/thecurrentview.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/f7d71b0e-3732-4c3b-9b20-3273d50c4952-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thecurrentview.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/f7d71b0e-3732-4c3b-9b20-3273d50c4952-1-768x511.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>During the welcome speech, Air Commodore Md.
