According to one of the mayors of Copenhagen (the liberal Jens-Kristian Lütken) (N.B., Copenhagen has one lord mayor and six mayors), Denmark will experience an extreme shortage of social and healthcare assistants (SOSUs) in the following years. Therefore, he proposed for a SOSU school to be established in the Philippines, where students would follow the same level of training as in Denmark and be taught Danish.
The idea is not new, as it was previously proposed by Moderaterne. They also suggested India as an option. The education would be paid for by Denmark, following Danish standards, and include Danish as part of the education. The best graduates will get work placements in Denmark.
