Philippines: Base for videoconference
training
programs development by 2011 |
|
By Ike Suarez, Correspondent
By December 2011, the Philippines shall be the base for development
and transmission of training programs via videoconferencing of
policymakers in the Asia-Pacific involved in their countries’
technical and vocational educational training programs. This was
according to Dr. Shyamal Hajundar, director general of the Colombo
Plan Staff College (CPSC) for Technician Education, who spoke with
The Manila Times following the launch recently of their school’s
blended wireless learning center in its campus at the Department of
Education (DepEd) Complex along Meralco Avenue in Pasig City.
CPSC is a regional training center to improve
technical education and training in the member countries of the
Colombo Plan. Since 1986, its campus has been in this complex after
having transferred from Singapore where it was established in
December 1973.

The Benz of CPU
cooling
|
|
Yeah sure, if you're lucky you could actually get a fairly good CPU
fan and heatsink for less than P1,500.(US$30.), maybe, a better one
for P2,500. (US$50.). However, anything beyond P3,000. (US$60.) -
that thing should only provide you the best for your system. And
with that last statement, I believe, that's where Noctua falls.
