U.S. to sponsor training for Nepali security forces
POSTED: 11:10 a.m. EDT, May 27,2007
The United States is all set to sponsor a series of workshops and training programs for all the three security wings -- the Nepali Army, the Armed Police Force and the Nepal Police -- this year, The Himalayan Times reported on Saturday.

A conference on security sector reform workshop, entitled "Democratic Control of the Security Forces", will be the first in the series being held in Kathmandu on May 28-June 1, according to the daily.

The conference is a "follow-up" of a workshop that had been held last August-September entitled "Democratic Transition and Security Sector Reform in Nepal." Five similar workshops are planned this year.

"These workshops are part of the ongoing U.S. security assistance to Nepal," Sharon Hudson-Dean, the Acting Public Affairs Officer of the American Embassy, was quoted by the daily as saying.

She said the additional U.S. security assistance programs planned for this year include medical training, military police training, and public affairs outreach training to the three security bodies.

The sponsors of the workshop beginning next week are The Asia Pacific Center for Security Studies based in Honolulu, Hawaii, the Center for Civil-Military Relations, based in Monterey, California, and the South Asia Center for Policy Studies in Kathmandu, the report said.
