Indian scholarships for Indonesians

JAKARTA: Under the yearly scholarship program called the
Indian Technical and Economic Cooperation (ITEC), 41 Indonesian
engineers will depart on Sunday for a six-week stint studying
computer software in India.

The training, which is a full scholarship program, will be
conducted by Tata Infotech Limited in New Delhi. The scholarship
winners were selected by the Office of the State Minister of
Research and Technology.

President Megawati Soekarnoputri is expected to observe the
training during her visit to India in early April.

Every year India offers 85 full scholarships to Indonesia
under ITEC and the Colombo Plan, as part of India's commitment to
the South-South Cooperation with Indonesia. --JP
