Students get EU grants

JAKARTA: Eleven Indonesian postgraduates will soon be leaving
for countries of the European Union (EU) where they will pursue
advanced studies under the EC-ASEAN scholarship program, the
Union's representative office in Jakarta announced.

The program, established in 1991, offers ASEAN nationals the
opportunity to undertake postgraduate studies in Europe.

The plan intends to increase awareness and understanding of
the European Union and its member states while providing training
and services to ASEAN countries.

Thirty five Indonesian graduates have benefited from the
program since it was launched. (emb)
