On May 29, 2025, the graduation ceremony for the "First Sri Lanka Police Tourism Department and Other Police Personnel Drone Application Training Class" was successfully held, marking the completion of the 11-day inaugural cross-national training program. Since the commencement of the training on May 19, through a systematic curriculum and practical training, it has not only improved the professional skills of the trainees but also laid a solid foundation for training cooperation between China and Sri Lanka in the field of drone technology.

Opening Ceremony: Ushering in a New Chapter of Cross-national Technical Exchange

On May 19, a significant opening ceremony was grandly held in the roadshow hall on the second floor of the Flying Tiger Building. Relevant personnel from Yunnan International Economic and Trade Culture Cooperation Center, Kunming Municipal Development and Reform Commission, Kunming Municipal Education and Sports Bureau, Kunming Municipal Human Resources and Social Security Bureau, and Flying Tiger Hump Industry (Group) Co., Ltd. attended the ceremony.

Zhou Ling, General Manager of Flying Tiger Hump Industry (Group) Co., Ltd., Executive Vice Secretary-General of ISASSA South Asia Southeast Asia International Security Alliance, and Principal of Flying Tiger Vocational Skills Training School, stated at the opening ceremony that this training has a dual significance: it is both the fourth drone license regular training in 2025 and the first cross-national professional training for Sri Lankan police officers. She emphasized that "technology has no borders, and innovation requires mutual learning." With the support of multiple parties, this "vocational education going global" initiative, using drone technology as a bridge, has built an international exchange platform, achieving a cross-border technical exchange and friendship connection.

In the trainee representative speech session, Mr. Prabath Vidanagama, the Sri Lankan trainee representative, recalled with emotion: "Last year, when I participated in the establishment meeting of the ISASSA South Asia Southeast Asia Alliance and visited your school, I realized the importance of drone technology to our country's tourism safety. Today, six of us from the Tourist Police Department and the Maritime Police Department have finally been able to participate in the training. I sincerely thank the Yunnan International Economic and Trade Culture Cooperation Center, Kunming Municipal Development and Reform Commission, Kunming Municipal Education and Sports Bureau, Kunming Municipal Human Resources and Social Security Bureau, and Flying Tiger Hump Industry (Group) Co., Ltd. for their full assistance, as well as Principal Zhou Ling's strong support."

Training Process: Deep Integration of Theory and Practice

In the 11-day training, Sri Lankan trainees systematically learned theoretical knowledge such as drone system overview, flight principles, and aerial photography techniques, and through extensive simulator and practical training, they proficiently mastered drone operation skills. The course progressed from basic operations such as assembling and debugging F450 drones to advanced skills in M300 RTK drone applications. Notably, the training also closely integrated the actual needs of police work, setting up special subjects such as drone reconnaissance, search and rescue, and hoisting and throwing.

Graduation Ceremony: Harvesting Fruits and Looking to the Future

On May 29, a solemn and warm graduation ceremony was held in the Kunming Central Legal District. At the ceremony, a learning diary video vividly reproduced the highlights of the training period.

An instructor from the Flying Tiger Vocational Skills Training School said in his speech: "The 11-day training not only allowed the trainees to master solid drone operation skills but also forged deep international friendships. Today's graduation is not the end but the beginning of a new journey." He gave full affirmation to the trainees' learning achievements and encouraged them to maintain their enthusiasm for learning and apply their knowledge to their actual work.

Subsequently, both sides exchanged commemorative gifts.

Wu Hongfei, Executive Standing Vice President of Yunnan International Economic and Trade Culture Cooperation Center and Honorary President of ISASSA South Asia Southeast Asia International Security Alliance, said: "This professional drone training has special significance. Mr. Vidanagama, the Sri Lankan police officer who participated in the training, is a member of the alliance. The participation of six Sri Lankan police officers not only implements the alliance's aim of improving regional security levels but also creates a new model for China-Sri Lanka security cooperation. It is a successful start, laying a good foundation for cooperation between China and Sri Lanka. In the future, we will continue to deepen cooperation and organize more Sri Lankan friends to participate in the training. At the same time, we will continue to deepen such professional training to provide support and assistance to more alliance members."

Training Significance: Building a Bridge for Cooperation and Exchange

With the rapid development of drone technology, its application prospects in public safety, emergency rescue, and other fields are broad. This training is an important milestone in the "vocational education going global" initiative of the Flying Tiger Vocational Skills Training School, not only promoting technical exchanges between China and Sri Lanka but also creating a new model for the school's international training. In the future, the school will continue to deepen international exchange and cooperation, promoting the development of Chinese drone technology to the world.

At the same time, this training is also a vivid practice of ISASSA South Asia Southeast Asia International Security Alliance in promoting regional security cooperation. This training not only allows Sri Lankan police officers to master drone technology but also, leveraging the alliance's resource integration advantages, establishes a standardized training system and promotes the intelligent upgrading of regional security cooperation.
