In his opening address, Lieutenant General Nguyen Van Nghia said AARM 30 is the first competition of the armed forces of all ASEAN member states after a two-year hiatus due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

“We do hope the event will help enhance the capacity of each country in responding to non-traditional challenges, and in promoting the ASEAN Vision for peace, stability, cooperation and development,” said Lieut. Gen. Nghia.

The contest has brought together 420 marksmen from the armed forces of all 10 ASEAN member states to compete in five disciplines - machine gun, rifle, carbine, men’s pistol, and women’s pistol.

AARM 30 is not only a competition for talented gunners from the armed forces of ASEAN countries, but also an opportunity for them to strengthen solidarity, friendship, mutual understanding and exchange.

It will give a chance to the armies of ASEAN countries to show their determination to promote strong and in-depth cooperation, contributing to maintaining peace, stability and sustainable development of each country as well as the region and the world.
