Malaysia's commitment to South-South Cooperation through the sharing of Malaysia's development experiences and knowledge with other developing nations was established in 1980 with the establishment of the Malaysian Technical Cooperation Program (MTCP).
 |
| Malaysian Technical Cooperation Program (MTCP) Scholarship for Master in Malaysia |
The MTCP's goals include:
- sharing experience with other developing nations;
- strengthening bilateral connections with developing countries;
- encouraging and promoting South-South cooperation; and
- encouraging and promoting technical collaboration among developing countries.
The MTCP is based on the idea that a country's progress is determined by the quality of its human capital and resources. Short-term courses at Malaysian public and private training institutes, as well as long-term courses at Malaysian public universities, are the mainstays of the MTCP's human resource development strategy.
In conjunction with renowned local training institutes and international development partners, Malaysia's flagship MTCP delivers more than 60 technical training and capacity-building programs in a wide range of development fields to developing nations each year. The different programs offered under the MTCP have helped more than 34,500 participants from 144 developing countries to far.
The Malaysian government sponsors the MTCP Scholarship, which allows overseas students from poor countries to continue postgraduate studies in Malaysia while also gaining the required information and skills to contribute to their home country's development. For Master's Degree Programs, the award lasts between 12 and 24 months.
