10. MALAYSIAN TECHNICAL COOPERATION PROGRAMME
(MTCP)

The Malaysian Technical Cooperation Programme (MTCP) was first initiated at the First
Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting (CHOGM) in Sydney in February 1978.
It was officially launched on 7 September 1980 at the Commonwealth Heads of State
Meeting in New Delhi, India, to signify Malaysia’s commitment to South-South
Cooperation, in particular Technical Cooperation among Developing Countries (TCDC).

In line with the spirit of South-South Cooperation, Malaysia through MTCP shares its
development experiences and expertise with other developing countries. The MTCP
was first formulated based on the belief that the development of a country depends on
the quality of its human resources. The programme forms part of the commitment of the
Malaysian Government towards the promotion of technical cooperation among
developing countries, strengthening of regional and sub-regional cooperation, as well
as nurturing collective self-reliance among developing countries.

The MTCP emphasizes the development of human resources through the provision of
training in various areas which are essential for a country’s development such as public
administration, good governance, health services, education, sustainable development,
agriculture, poverty alleviation, investment promotion, ICT and banking. More than 60
short-term specialized programmes are offered by more than 60 MTCP training
institutions, many of which are centres of excellence for training. Since its launching,
more than 26,000 participants from 139 countries and 2 British overseas territories have
benefited from the various programmes offered under the MTCP.

The MTCP has been managed by the Economic Planning Unit, Prime Minister’s
Department since its inception. In a move to further enable MTCP to spread its wings
wider and stronger, the Malaysian Government has decided to transfer the MTCP to the
Ministry of Foreign Affairs from 1 January 2010. It is envisaged that emplacing it under

15

the Ministry of Foreign Affairs could provide the synergy and support it requires in line
with Malaysia’s foreign policy. As the focal point for the MTCP, the Ministry of Foreign
Affairs of Malaysia (Wisma Putra) is responsible to formulate policies, fund, coordinate,
monitor and evaluate the MTCP programmes.
