HONG KONG JOINS ASIAN CENTRE FOR DEVELOPMENT MANAGEMENT
Hong Kong has joined the Asian Centre for Development Administration
in Kuala Lumpur to provide more opportunities for local officers to receive
advanced management training abroad.
The Asian Centre was set up at the 28th Session of ECAFE in
March, 1972, and offers training, research and consultancy for senior
civil servants, businessmen and managers of public corporations who work
at a policy-making level;
The major value of the Centre for Hong Kong is its specialist
training courses and seminars. The courses will last from one to eight
weeks accordingly, and aims at increasing the knowledge and skills of senior
managers in both public and private sectors.
Hong Kong will gain training fellowships which total about 15 man
weeks a year.
These followships include passages, subsistence, and other
allowances and course fees.
The Centre expects to make extensive use of the staff of universities
and other institutions in Singapore and Malaysia so as to maintain a
high standard of training.
The main users of the Centre will be senior civil servants, but
officers from franchised public utility companies may also find the training
courses valuable.
