China and Thailand sent teams of 372 members and 126 members, respectively, to participate in the training in Shanwei, a city in south China's Guangdong Province, from May 11 to 25.

The training was aimed at strengthening capabilities for combatting regional terrorist organizations, and it focused on tasks such as light weapon firing, bomb defusing, wilderness survival, ambushing and handling an ambush.
