University recruits volunteers for SEA Games

Teachers at the National University of Laos are recruiting students and other members of the public to work as volunteers and liaison staff during the SEA Games, to be held in Vientiane from December 9 to 18.

Teachers are looking for 3,000 people for these positions, and have received 3,259 applications so far.

Last week, teachers interviewed 435 people for work as liaison staff, and another 1,577 students applying to be volunteers.

Head of the Department of English and Head of the Unit for Selecting Volunteers, Mr Ketkeo Phanthanivong, said they did not have enough people yet to do the work.

He said there were many suitable students and officials around the country but they had not registered for an interview.

It's not easy to find enough qualified students to work as volunteers because they lack experience and knowledge of English.

Registration is still open for students and officials interested in working as liaison staff and volunteers. Applications were invited beginning February 10.

“We would like to request students and officials to come for an interview so they can help at the games,” Mr Ketkeo said.

Teachers are looking for students and officials who can speak English.

Some of the more than 5,000 students at the university have been helping teachers with the registration process.

When the selection process is over, teachers will hold training courses for those chosen to work at the games. Volunteers will learn about the history of the SEA Games and the sports that will be included in this year's games, as well as about travel in Laos , Lao culture and history, and sports in Laos .

The university will transfer the 3,000 volunteers to the Lao National Sports Committee (LNSC) in June, when the committee will outline the work they want them to do.

One woman studying at the university, Ms Palamy Akkhalath, who is in her second year at the Faculty of Science, said she wanted to be a volunteer because she wanted to help Laos, especially as this was the first time the SEA Games would be held here.

Ms Palamy, from Donkoi village in Sisattanak district, said she thought she had a 50 percent chance of success after the interview, even thought she's not studying English.

The project was very popular among students, she said.

Another woman, Miss Phoutthavone Akkhalath, 20, has also volunteered. She is in her fourth year at the Faculty of Science and in her third year of English at Thipvaly College .

She said was confident she would be chosen as a volunteer because she was able to answer the questions. She lives in Khamhoung village, Xaythany district.

LNSC officials will train students and officials about Lao sports teams until the start of the games, after which officials from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs will give them training in diplomacy.

By working at the SEA Games, the students will benefit from the experience of other countries and will enhance their friendship.

The university is asking the government to provide more than one billion kip to fund training courses ahead of the games.

Volunteers will look after guests. During the games themselves, liaison staff will accompany athletes as they travel from one venue to another and assist with public security.
