JAKARTA (JP): Publicly listed Bank NISP will sponsor the
national selection for the World Young Business Achiever Award
'98, an annual award for young executives with outstanding
achievements worldwide, the bank said yesterday.

"We believe the competition will allow young Indonesian
executives to show their achievements on the international
stage," Bank NISP managing director Parwati Surjaudaja said.

The competition will give a lot of opportunities to Indonesian
executives in making business contacts with overseas executives,
she added.

She said the national selection would be held in Jakarta in
the middle of this month, while the final selection would be held
in Beijing, China, in April.

The World Young Business Achiever Award is being held by
Worldcom Group Inc, an international public relations consultancy
with over 100 branch offices worldwide.

The competition will involve executives from 30 countries, who
are less than 40 years old and have worked in their businesses
for over three years. (gis)
