ISLAMABAD: Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Committee (CJCSC) General Sahir Shamshad Mirza highlighted Pakistan’s role in regional stability and discussed military-to-military ties during a visit to Brunei Darussalam, the military’s media wing said on Thursday, where he held meetings with the top civil and military leadership.
Mirza has undertaken a series of high-level foreign visits in recent months aimed at expanding the country’s defense diplomacy and regional outreach.
In May, shortly after the brief but intense military standoff with India, he addressed the Shangri-La Dialogue in Singapore, warning that escalation could outpace diplomacy in South Asia while urging conflict resolution mechanisms between Pakistan and India.
While in Brunei, Mirza met His Majesty Sultan Hajji Hassanal Bolkiah Mu’izzaddin Waddaulah, as well as Major General (Retired) Dato Paduka Seri Awang Hajji Halbi bin Hajji Mohd Yussof, Minister at the Prime Minister’s Office and Minister of
Defense-II, and Major General Dato Paduka Seri Hajji Muhammad Haszaimi bin Bol Hassan, Commander of the Royal Brunei Armed Forces, according to the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR).
