very first China-Myanmar Friendship financial grant at Chinese cultural center

The pilot project is brought by the
Chinese Embassy to Myanmar and the Ministry of Education.
Ambassador , China Embassy of Myanmar ,
Hong Liang : “This time we offered about I think more than 300 million
kyat to the Myanmar students to assistance; to study in China all accomplishes
the education in Myanmar.
Some of them are from the high schools
and some of them are from the Universities. We hope that in the future more Myanmar
students will benefit from our program.”
In the Yangon University of Foreign
Languages, the Chinese Embassy provided 10 million kyat education grant for the
199 students listed under the China-Myanmar Friendship Scholarship.
Associate Professor, Yangon

the embassy offered financial grants for our students… This is very good for
the students. I believe that [with this financial support], they can try harder
for their education.

to more than 1,000 Myanmar students from high schools and universities.
Student, Shin That Hlaing: “I have been
selected as an outstanding student in secondary one and then I feeling very
