Description
On March 26th and 29th of 2006, the Chinese Ambassador to Jordan, Luo Xingwu, and the Jordanian Minister of Planning and International Cooperation, Al Ali Suhair, exchanged letters committing China to train 40 Jordanian Government officials from various ministries. The agreement stipulated that China would pay for the training and travel of two batches of 20 Jordanian Government Officials in two 30-day training courses in China. As part of the initiative, on September 18th, 2006, the Government of China extended an invitation to the Jordanian Ministry of Customs to pay for and train 20 Jordanian officials in "Economic Management" from October 20th to November 18th 2006. The invitation specified officials must must be a manager (or director/administrator/executive), must be under the age of 50, must be able to read, write, and speak in English, must be free of chronic illness and that they must submit a 10-20 page working paper.
Additional details
It is possible that the second batch of Jordanian Government officials were dispatched to participate in a land mine clearance training course implemented by the People's Liberation Army from September 9th to December 20th, 2006 (ID#64798), but the evidence is too shaky for AidData to consider them related projects. Therefore, the status of the project was set as implementation.
