Vietnam’s Ministry of Information and Communications will continue to implement a programme to train telecom technicians for Laos , Cambodia and Myanmar with funding provided by Japan .

An agreement on the second phase of the project, lasting from 2009-2011, was signed in Hanoi on September 23 between the Ministry of Information and Communications and the Japan International Cooperation Agency.

During the four-week courses, technicians from the three beneficiary nations will be taught skills needed to operate and maintain circuits and digital microwave transmission equipment, as well as general knowledge about Internet Protocol (IP) and Next Generation Network (NGN) technologies.

The first phase of the programme started in 2005 and has gained practical results for the information technology-communications sectors in the three countries.
