China Datang Corporation helps high-quality talent training in Myanmar’s power industry

China Datang Corporation is a sponsor of the “Silk Road Business Council-China Committee”. As a Fortune Global 500 company and one of China’s top five power generation groups, it is closely connected with the “Lancang-Mekong Water Resources Cooperation Centre” of the Ministry of Water Resources of China and has a long-term cooperative relationship with Hohai University, a famous “water conservancy and hydropower” university in China. China Datang Corporation is invited to be involved in the “Lancang-Mekong Cooperation High-level Water Resources Talents Programme” (including Chinese government scholarship) jointly organized by Lancang-Mekong Water Resources Cooperation Centre and Hohai University every year. Since 2019, it has successfully invited six high-level talents from countries in the Mekong region, including Myanmar, Laos, Cambodia, Thailand, and Viet Nam, to study at Hohai University for three consecutive times. The students from Thailand invited in 2019 have completed their studies and returned to Thailand, while the rest are still studying.
DAPEIN (I) Hydropower Company Limited is a joint venture registered in Myanmar by China Datang Corporation and the Ministry of Electric Power of Myanmar. It is committed to serving the investment, construction and operation of power infrastructure in Myanmar, and attaches great importance to the training of the young generation of power talents in Myanmar. In 2022, with the help of the School of International Relations of Yunnan University, the School of International Relations of Yunnan Minzu University, and the FTIC in Mandalay, three outstanding young talents from Myanmar were successfully invited to Hohai University for further study. In 2023, the company has been entrusted again to invite outstanding young talents from Myanmar to study at Hohai University through the relevant departments, the FTIC in Mandalay and our partners in Myanmar. As in previous years, applicants will be selected for admission to Hohai University in early September through the process of recommendation, application and public interview. DAPEIN (I) Hydropower Company Limited will wholeheartedly provide comprehensive and high-quality counselling and services for outstanding young talents in Myanmar. We welcome more outstanding young people in Myanmar to actively apply for the “Lancang-Mekong Cooperation” water resources high-level talent programme in the future.
