BusinessWeek is reporting that Microsoft will provide computer training to more than 2,000 disadvantaged youths in rural Bangladesh over the next year.
The U.S.-based software giant will give a grant of $90,000 (74,820 euros) for software and training curriculum to the Bangladesh-based Learn Foundation to implement the program in northeastern Bangladesh, Saw Ken Wye, Microsoft's president in Southeast Asia, was quoted as saying by the Ittefaq newspaper.

    Cool stuff. Those Bangladeshis better watch out, though. Soon enough, their jobs will be outsourced to Somalia :D
