TAIWAN IS BIGGEST FOREIGN AID DONOR FOR TINY BELIZE

TAIWAN IS THE BIGGEST FOREIGN AID DONOR TO TINY BELIZE.

This is SCHOLARSHIP SEASON before the school year starts. Taiwan has come in with the biggest raft of FOREIGN AID SCHOLARSHIPS for Belizeans out of all the other countries in the world. Including the USA, the United Kingdom and Canada.
26 scholarships have been awarded to Belize students this year.
One of the hard parts for Taiwanese scholarships is the spending one year in learning MANDARIN so you can attend class. In Belize we have the Mandarin speakers from TAIWAN, who descend from the Manchu dynasty and also the mainlander Chinese who speak mostly Cantonese.
Scholarships offered in Tropical Agriculture, Science and Technology, Science of Philosophy, Marine Sciences and Resource Management, Sustainable Development Programs, Electric Power Engineering, Nursing Masters Degrees, Resource Development, Information Science, Health Care Administration, Mechanical Engineering, Trade and Management, Business Administration. The scholarships are offered by the Government of the Republic of Taiwan.
24 former Belize students completed their studies this year also. Right now there are 80 BELIZEAN STUDENTS STUDYING IN TAIWAN AT DIFFERENT LEVELS

AAAAhhh! If only Canada and the USA had programs as big as this? The USA unfortunately is FLAT BROKE and heavily in DEBT. CANADA is Euro-Centric and does not apparently live in and on the American Continent? They are Europeans first and foremost in outlook. Too bad, they are missing out on a lot for our continental hemisphere.
