On August 24th, 2015, the Chinese Embassy in South Africa and the South African Higher Education Training Department jointly held the 2015 “Chinese Government Scholarship Program” for the pre-departure training activities for 53 South African students who received scholarships to study in China. In these activities, the scholarship recipients learned about higher education in China and considerations for studying abroad. The scholarship recipients were picked out of the pool of 180 applicants through exams and interviews. Li Song, the temporary representative of the Chinese Embassy in South Africa, and Manana, the deputy director of the South African High Education Department, and all 53 Chinese government scholarship recipients attended the ceremony.
