1 The Tamil Language Learning and Promotion Committee (TLLPC) has launched the Cultural Performance Exposure Fund (CPEF) to encourage students to experience and enjoy cultural performances in Tamil.
2 Chairman of TLLPC, Mr Vikram Nair, announced the launch today. The fund will be available to students from all primary and secondary schools, junior colleges, Millennia Institute, post-secondary education institutions (PSEIs), and Institutes of Higher Learning (IHLs) offering Tamil Language (TL) programmes1. Schools can start tapping on the fund from 17 January 2020.
