Tianjin college hosts training for African railway workers

Ethiopian Filmon Teklehaimanot Teklemariam experienced a homecoming of sorts when he returned to Tianjin Railway Technical and Vocational College recently to participate in a special training program to study high-speed rail technologies.

He couldn't help expressing his appreciation to his Chinese teachers for advancing his skills — for the second time.

As the director of the operation and control center of the Ethio-Djibouti Railway, Teklemariam was one of the 35 highly skilled staff members selected to participate in the second round of the training program in Tianjin. He studied railway technology at the college nine years ago.
