The fourth Pacific Armies Management Seminar hosted by US Army Western Command met in Honolulu 3-7 November 1980. The seminar theme was Internal Defense and Development, emphasizing techniques used by attending nations to contend with insurgencies and lessons derived from those experiences. Efforts were directed at developing methods to achieve commonality and interoperability among participating nations to allow them to assist each other in countering insurgencies and, as necessary, conducting coalition warfare in the Pacific region. Participants from Australia, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Korea, Malaysia, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Tonga, United States, as well as observers from Japan attended. As has been the custom at previous PAMS, delegates made presentations, met in smaller panel discussion groups, and reported the results of their panel discussions at the plenary sessions.
