    The SPLA CGS said “ My visit is very selective, I have selected to visit Rwanda Defence Forces, to share with them their experience, see their facilities with confidence that what we get will serve our purpose  as we build our young nation, because we share a common background of armed struggle” said  Gen Paul Malong Awan.
