Description
Since 2006, the Embassy of China in Timor-Leste, commissioned by the China Scholarship Council, has enrolled Timorese students to study in China under the Chinese Government Scholarship. In 2011, the Chinese Government created the Chinese Government Scholarship allowing more students to study in China under scholarships. In 2014, China again re-affirmed its intention to expand the number of scholarships given to Timorese students. This scholarship has also been expanded to include enrolment for civil servants and technical personnel. 6 Timorese students won the Chinese Government Scholarship in 2010, but it is not clear how many are given in each of the other years.
