We will select the winning teams from this competition to participate in the international challenges. We held the Myanmar Cyber Security Challenge once time each in 2015, 2016 and 2018 and we held twice in 2019, altogether 5 times. We could not hold the competitions in 2020 and 2021 because of COVID-19. But, we launched a website for the youths to test their abilities and qualifications.”
