Timor Leste Hopes To Join Asean In Five Years

So, what it has to do with you as a vocational training institute? Read on.

NEW YORK, Sept 27 (Bernama) -- Timor Leste hopes to become a member of Asean in about five years, says its president Ramos Horta."A multi-sectoral task force headed by myself has been formed and that shows the importance we attach to this process for the whole government (machinery) to prepare for an Asean accession," he said prior to his meeting with Malaysian Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi here Wednesday. To attain accession, Horta said his country of a population of one million needed to make greater efforts to train and educate its people.As such, he has proposed a joint funding to train Timorese in various fields, including vocational training. On this, Abdullah has agreed that it would be far more beneficial to train the trainers in Timor Leste so that more people could be trained under this process.

So, would it be the private sectors or the government agencies to benefit from this project??? Your guess is as good as mine :-)
