Full Description

Project narrative

On May 13, 2008, Vice Minister of the Chinese Ministry of Commerce, Gao Hucheng, and Malawian Industry and Trade Minister, Henry Mussa, signed an exchange of letters on human resource development cooperation. Under these agreements, China has agreed to help train 40 Malawian government economic officials. The Chinese embassy in Malawi reported they provided 28 government scholarships and 3 special masters degrees, and another 25 government scholarships in 2009. The value for this project and exact start and end dates are still unknown. The embassy also reported that since an unspecified date, over 200 scholarships have been given.
