\u201cYour commitment to fostering regional cooperation and capacity building in the realm of cybercrime and cybersecurity is commendable and I am confident that this initiative will contribute significantly to our collective efforts in addressing cyber threats,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe participants\u2019 presence will further cement the ties that exist between their countries and additionally signal a collective commitment to international collaboration as they address the threats posed by cybercrime within the sub-region.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have an opportunity to maintain networks established during this training and to advocate for increased investment in cybersecurity capacity building, research, and international cooperation to confront the ever-changing nature of cybercrime.\u201d<\/p>\n

For his part, Ambassador Lang Yabou, the Permanent Secretary at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, stated since the training had ended, it was now time for them to begin the next phase of the journey where they would get to apply the valuable lessons and experiences acquired from the training.<\/p>\n
