Djakarta.

b. Preparatory training in special schools set up for the purpose.
(1) The students usually travel in a group of fifty or even a hundred

by him and his entourage en route to Canton. Little time is allowed

(2) The schools are known in Chinese as Hua-chfiao Sheng-hsueh yu-pei
pan (i.e., classes for advanced education for overseas Chinese) and
are located in Canton, Wuhan, Peking, Shanghai and possibly in other
large cities.

to medical schools.
3.
Practically no latitude is given the students in the selection of a school.
Even local party leaders have little voice in the matter.
The areas of concentration in the assignment of students after graduation
seem to be the Northwest and Central China., i.e., Honan and Hupeh provinces.
