The closing ceremony was held at the Murai Urban Training Facility and was observed by officials from both countries, including Permanent Secretary (Defence) Chiang Chie Foo and the PLA Deputy Chief of General Staff, General (GEN) Ma Xiaotian. Prior to the closing ceremony, Mr Chiang and GEN Ma also observed a response drill demonstration by the SAF-PLA Exercise Joint Task Force.

Speaking at the closing ceremony, BG Ngien noted that the joint training exercise had "provided a platform for both armed forces to better understand and cooperate with each other”.

About 60 exercise troops each from the SAF and PLA took part in the nine-day training exercise, which focused on CT security operations, including responding to chemical and explosive threats, for major international events.
