Kollie, Director General of the Liberia Civil Aviation Authority (LCAA), thanked BAGASOO for their good ongoing partnership and technical help, which he believes is clearly preparing the LCAA for the next ICAO audit.<\/p>\n<p>He also promised the delegation that, with the Joint Technical Team&#8217;s commitment and focus on the forthcoming ICAO Audit, Liberia will perform better and have a stronger success story than in prior ICAO Audits.<\/p>\n<p>Director Kollie stated that the LCAA will thoroughly review and implement the numerous recommendations emerging from the delegation&#8217;s findings in order to strengthen the LCAA&#8217;s status as an Aviation Sector Regulator in all aspects of concern.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We eagerly await your return to Liberia in the first week of April 2022 to complete the necessary documentation before the ICAO Audit Team arrives for the Audit between the 17th of April and 3rd of May 2022,&#8221; DG Kollie told the team.<\/p>\n<p>The LCAA boss also praised the LCAA&#8217;s Joint Technical Team for the intensive two-week working session, which he personally considers to be National Service to the Nation, and urged the team to remain committed until Liberia achieves success in strengthening the aviation industry.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/liberia\">Liberia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Liberia.
