Japan has been conducting road construction training to the engineer unit of the Mongolian Army since FY2014. This year, following three weeks of education delivered in 2014 where the students learnt basic surveying theories, they constructed 200 meters of graveled road at the Mongolian Army's PKO center.
While the students were initially unfamiliar with the new construction method of piling up layers of different materials, they quickly learned the methods delicate technique and eventually administered and performed safety management by themselves.
Five trainees, who studied at the JGSDF Engineer School during last year's program, played active parts in this summer's long-term program by getting involved in the training. Japan plans to invite a small number of trainees to study at the GSDF Engineering School at the end of FY 2015. By combining our training programs in Mongolia and Japan, we continue to advance productive human resource development.
