2011 Specialist Dispatch Project
One of CLAIR Singapore’s main roles is to promote constructive mutual
exchange between local governments in Japan and the ASEAN region, including
India. In this regard, exchange in terms of knowledge transfer has always
been an emphasis in CLAIR Singapore’s programs, and the Specialist Dispatch
Project implemented by CLAIR Singapore embodies this vision of further
promoting knowledge exchange between local governments in Japan and the
ASEAN region, as well as India.
Under the Specialist Dispatch Project, Japanese local government officials (including retirees) who have knowledge or technical skills in various fields, are dispatched to local governments in the ASEAN region and India as specialists. These specialists will contribute to improving the quality of local administration, technical expertise and human resources in the overseas local governments. The specialists’ fields of expertise include fire and disaster prevention, water supply and sewerage, social welfare, health and sanitation, local administration and many more.
The 2011 Specialist Dispatch Project (effective period: April 2011 ~ March 2012) coordinated by CLAIR Singapore is now opened for application. Local governments and related organizations in the
ASEAN region as well as India that are interested to participate in the project are invited to submit their request forms to CLAIR Singapore’s official counterparts as stated below:
