Cambodian airports are preparing to install a satellite-guided performance-based navigation (PBN) system that will save carriers time and fuel, and reduce air pollution, according to the State Secretariat of Civil Aviation.

Keo Sivorn, a director general at the SSCA, said the new system was the result of cooperation from many stakeholders and that it benefits the entire aviation industry.

“It benefits the aviation industry by shortening air routes, and saving fuel and time,” Mr. Sirorn said, adding that the system is also environmentally friendly, more flexible and safer than the ground radio navigation system being used. By comparison the satellite system has the most advanced technology for communication, navigation and surveillance, he said.

Geovalin whilst I can take an educated guess as to the system they have installed I am interested to find out just exacty what it is, but the news source in the link does not say anything more. Do you have another link to other news sources?
