TNI and ADF Working Together to Increase Their Combined HADR Response Capabilities
|
| JAKARTA - The third iteration of the Mobile Logistics Training Team (MLTT) was conducted at Hotel Santika, Jakarta from the 21-24 August 2017. The aim of this MLTT was to enhance logistics capability and cooperation between the Australian Defence Force (ADF) and Indonesian National Armed Forces (TNI) particularly in the sphere of logistics support to Humanitarian Aid and Disaster Relief (HADR) and other bilateral exercises. The longer term intent is to include bilateral logistics elements in all our future exercises.
This four day workshop was strongly supported by the TNI with a total of 21 members from Army, Navy, Air Force and TNI Headquarters participating in the activity. The ADF provided three instructors - LTCOL Anthony Draheim, LCDR Scott Backo and MAJ Victoria Young from Joint Logistics Command and Joint Operations Command.
The main focus of the ADF team during the workshop was to provide their TNI counterparts with a better understanding of ADF logistics systems and International Agreements/Arrangements, focusing on the TNI/ADF Mutual Logistics Support Arrangement (MLSA), and how it can be used to request/provide bilateral support between the ADF and TNI during exercises or real time scenarios.
The workshop culminated in a table top exercise enabling the TNI members to present logistic options to support a HADR scenario. There will be further opportunity to build upon these training outcomes, as well as broadening the newly created relationships between the TNI and ADF, during Exercise NUSA BHAKTI AUSINDO 17 which is scheduled to be conducted in the latter half of September 2017 in Darwin.
The third MLTT workshop was a great success, with all participants working coherently and enthusiastically to achieve the common goal of increasing their combined HADR response capabilities throughout the four days of the MLTT logistics training. All involved are looking forward to expanding what is already a strong relationship within the realm of logistics during similar exchanges during 2018. |
