Taiwan to train Indonesians<\/p>\n
TAIPEI (DPA): Taiwan on Tuesday launched a two-year vocational
\ntraining program for 105 Indonesian youth as part of Taipei's
\nplan to strengthen economic ties with Southeast Asian nations.<\/p>\n
The 105 youth, mostly college graduates, will learn
\nmanufacturing skills in the fields of electric engineering,
\ngarment making, metal processing and food processing.<\/p>\n
\"They will get free board and a monthly living allowance of
\n200 U.S. dollars. They will go home with a 5,000-U.S.-dollar
\nsubsidy each to start business,\" said Chang Yu-yen from the
\nInternational Corp. Department which runs the project.<\/p>\n
Taiwan launched the training program in 1995 to help Southeast
\nAsian nations train young entrepreneurs. It has trained 450
\nIndonesians and 143 Filipinos so far.<\/p>\n
The trainees must be between 20 and 30 years old.
\nTaiwan hopes to expand the program to other developing countries
\nwhich are friendly to Taiwan.<\/p>",
