SINGAPORE: Singapore and China have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) on knowledge and expertise transfers.

Under the MOU, the Singapore Cooperation Enterprise (SCE) will customise training programmes to suit the learning objectives of Chinese civil servants.

The SCE is an agency which responds to foreign requests to tap on Singapore's development experience.

China's State Administration of Foreign Experts, which manages overseas training programmes for its government officials, will oversee and approve the exchanges.

The MOU will also enable China to invite relevant Singaporean experts to participate as advisers and speakers for their in-country training programmes.

Training programme topics can include urban planning, e-government and human resource management.

In addition, it will let agencies from both countries organise joint training programmes for other nations which are keen to tap on the expertise of Singapore and China.
