Myanmar Strategic Holdings, the developer and operator of consumer businesses located in Myanmar, yesterday announced that it will be partnering with the Directorate of Investment and Company Administration (DICA) in the provision of English language courses to support the development and growth of business in Myanmar.
Under the terms of the one-year partnership, London-listed MSH will provide DICA with flexible blended learning programmes through its Wall Street English franchise for 10 of its senior civil servants. The value of the partnership is estimated to be in the region of K25 million (equivalent to $18,000) with the option for the partnership to be extended further. The initial cost of delivering the programmes will be entirely absorbed by MSH.
MSH has a long-standing commitment to English language learning which culminated in its partnership with Wall Street English and Pearson in August 2016. Since the opening of the Company’s first Wall Street English centre in 2017, it has trained over 1,800 students and participated in several pro-bono teaching programmes in aid of capacity building within the local communities.
In 2017, among other initiatives, Wall Street English provided pro-bono English language courses to civil servants in the Ministry of Hotels and Tourism.
