The Ministry of Defence Malaysia is pleased to lend its suppost to DSA Exhibition and Conference Sdn Bhd in organising the 13th Defence Services Asia (DSA) show scheduled from April 16 - 19, 2012 and is committed towards upgrading the resources of the Malaysiam Armed Forces with the latest technologies and advancement in defence and security solutions.

With the rapid change in defence and security technologu development, DSA 2012 provides Malaysia's planners the opportune platform to scrutinize the latest state-of-the-art equipment that are being introduces to the industry, allowing us to develop new capabilities to improve our defence and security services.

It also enables merchants of the defence related industry as well as representatives of international governments alike to further empower their most powerful weapon, i.e. alliances and relationships pertaining to areas of defence and security technology and strategies.

I wish the Organiser all the best for the DSA 2012 exhibition and conference, and I personally look forward to many opportunities for joint defence and security technology endeavors among the merchants and patrons during the four-day event.
