RM70mil goes to Helena Handbasket

I don’t know that two or three years worth of re-training is going to be able to undo decades’ worth of exposure to a misguided school system. Just do it right the first time already!!

SHAH ALAM: The Government has approved a RM70mil grant to retrain 10,000 unemployed graduates, said Human Resources Minister Datuk Dr S. Subramaniam.

He said the grant would be used to train them in skills like communication, language and creative thinking.

“Some have good qualifications but their hurdle is language. So, we want to train them in English,” he said.

    Retrain? Then they weren’t trained properly in the first place! Shouldn’t they spend money on solving the real problem?
