Advanced Training Course on
Motor Vehicle Technical Regulation and Certification for 2004
|
As part of the 2004 Motor Vehicle Technical Regulation and Certification
Cooperation Project, consigned by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure
and Transport, the "Advanced Training Course on Motor Vehicle
Technical Regulation and Certification" was held from July 20
to July 30. The objective was to acquire knowledge and technology
necessary for international activities aimed at achieving international
harmonization of vehicle safety and environmental standards, and mutual
recognition of approvals, in the countries of Asia. The course covered
the significance of vehicle regulation harmonization and of mutual
recognition of approvals and presented an outline of related international
activities to a total of 13 attendants, 3 trainees each from 3 countries
(Indonesia, Thailand, Philippines), 1 trainee each from China, Malaysia,
and Vietnam (for a total of 12 trainees) and 1 observer from Saudi
Arabia. What is more, in an "Inspection/Maintenance Course",
established two years ago, individualized training specializing in
the inspections and maintenance was offered this year, too. Over a
period of about two weeks, trainees attended lectures, presented country
reports, practiced conducting automobile type-approval tests and tests
for compliance with general safety regulations, all in an effort to
gain knowledge toward the establishment of motor vehicle technical
regulation and certification systems in their respective countries.
