Last weekend, I was attending an event called "Youth defined: Shape your future" held at Palace of golden horses. It's an event where youths are invited to attend and they would contribute ideas and proposing projects to assist the government in improving or helping out with the government's ETP & GTP programme.
So, during the event, the CEO of PEMANDU (the driving committee of the ETP/GTP programme) was invited to share his views and updates on the programme with the participants. The CEO is Idris Jala, the former CEO of Malaysian Airlines and what makes me more interested is, him being a Sarawakian like me!
I like what they are doing over there in PEMANDU. They provide professionalism and corporate-like management in the government.
But the talks by Idris Jala - I believe a very good thing. It provided the youths are very critical and outspoken what's actually happening in the government and with the programme. And that ETP and GTP are not simply a waste of money but something worth doing.
and all the ideas, suggestions and recommendations were compiled and presented to the Prime Minister on Monday.
Although I might not like the government that much - well, a lot of issues are not solved and the way things are being implemented just don' bode well with myself, but to see efforts coming from both side - government and opposition - really show a good sign and positive development for our youths in contributing directly to the nation's growth now and the future.
Well, on the other hand, I've pitched my project "Ordinary to Awesome" during the event. The project will start in January, so I'll be updating regularly what's going to happen then!
Merry Christmas!
