Our hope is that these students will have the skills and opportunities to secure good employment in Papua. We look forward to strengthening this cooperation in the future,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Following the signing, UKDW officials presented details of the scholarship programs available at the university, as well as the facilities and support that Papuan scholarship recipients would receive.
