Vocational training

The secretary-general of the non-formal education promotion office said yesterday the Education Ministry had allocated Bt490 million to provide vocational training for people affected by the flooding.

Prasert Bunruang also revealed a plan to propose Bt2.8 billion as an annual budget to provide vocational training at communities and tambons in some 30 provinces hit by flood disaster. 

He said people who do the training would also be given Bt5,000 seed money to buy materials or tools. 

After the flood subsides, the office will also dispatch 77 teams of volunteers with 77 water pumps in 77 vans to help clean flood-damaged homes, schools or temples free-of-charge, he said.
