DILI, 13 january 2023 ( TATOLI)– Minister of Education, Youth, and Sports (MoYES) Armindo Maia, granted the subsidies ‘Bolso Merito” to 3,500 students within this month.

Meanwhile, the Director of Education Service for the Municipality of Dili, Carlito Soares, said that 194 students were classified as outstanding students in the Municipality of Dili.
