Honourable Joseph Bukari Nikpe, is currently in Singapore, playing a pivotal role in the landmark Global Aviation and Maritime Symposium (GAMS) 2025.
This highly anticipated event, which commenced on 13th July at the Fairmont Ballroom, Raffles City Convention Centre, marks a historic coming together of the world's leading aviation and maritime bodies.
Organized by the Singapore Ministry of Transport (MOT), GAMS 2025 is an exclusive, invitation-only gathering bringing together Transport Ministers, senior officials, and key industry leaders from across the globe. Its significance is underscored by the unprecedented joint attendance and dialogue of the Secretaries-General of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) and the International Maritime Organization (IMO).
Hon. Joseph Bukari Nikpe's presence at the symposium is a testament to Ghana's commitment to advancing global transport safety, sustainability, and capacity building. As Ghana positions itself as a major aviation and maritime hub in West Africa, the Minister is actively engaging in discussions that address shared challenges and foster common goals within these vital sectors.
The symposium's agenda includes a high-level panel, "Navigating Global Transport in a Changing World: Challenges, Opportunities, and Cooperation," and a Ministerial & Industry Roundtable themed "Shaping Tomorrow’s Transport: People, Technology, and Policy." These sessions provide crucial platforms for leaders like Hon. Nikpe to exchange views and share perspectives on the evolving landscape of global transport.
Ghana's participation, led by Minister Nikpe, emphasizes the nation's dedication to modernizing its transport infrastructure, investing in human capital, promoting sustainable practices, and enhancing regional cooperation. His engagement in Singapore underscores Ghana's proactive approach to contributing to a resilient, efficient, and inclusive global transport system, ensuring the nation remains a key player in the international aviation and maritime communities.
