Skills Training Receiving a Clear Endorsement in Ninth Malaysia Plan
One major breakthrough in the 9th Malaysia Plan is the provision of skills training opportunities to Indian youths. This matter was highlighted in the Eighth Malaysia Plan and by the Mid Term Review document it was clearly stated that Giat MARA will open up to incorporate Indian youths who are underachievers, drop outs and those who did not have the grades to qualify into residential skill training institutions either run by the Human Resource Ministry or the Youth and Sports Ministry.
The provisions in the Ninth Plan is indicative of Government's full cognisance of the problems faced by Indian youths especially those from low income families and whose performance through the schools system is weak.
The Government delivery system has in the past few years started making places available in existing institutions. The new provision of Pusat Putra, which was proposed by YSS during the Mid Term Review of the Eighth Malaysia Plan is indeed timely. Currently there is no training institution catering for these types of boys who might have a criminal background or who is from a gang. This centre will cater for this target group. While there will be lots of opportunities for Indian youths, it will be also open to other youths with similar behavior problems.
In the coming months, YSS will approach the Economic Planning Unit over the implementation details of this new institution. I am personally confident that if an Indian youth wants to get out of crime or from a gang background, this Pusat Putra will be an excellent way of transformation.
It is imperative that we must monitor the situation and ensure the full realization of this project over the next five years. Our prayer is that many youths will grab this opportunity and make a better life for themselves.

Focus on skills training
SHAH ALAM: Skills certificate courses will be introduced at secondary schools with integrated programmes while two special education vocational secondary schools will be built in Kedah and Pahang.
The two measures are aimed at benefiting special needs students who are not academicaly oriented.
In announcing this yesterday, Education Ministry parliamentary secretary P. Komala Devi said the skills certificate courses would be introduced as a pilot project scheduled to take off by the year-end involving six schools.
Each school will offer one of six vocational subjects for students to take up in Forms Four and Five.
“At the end of Form Five, these students will leave school with a skills certificate issued by the Vocational and Skills Training Council, which comes under the purview of the Human Resources Ministry,” said Komala at the launch of the Heart to Heart campaign at Sekolah Menengah Pendidikan Khas Vokasional (SMPKV) in Section 17, Shah Alam.
If the project is successful, it will benefit a larger number of vocationally inclined special needs students.
The campaign is the first of several initiatives to be introduced in conjunction with the launch of October as Special Education Month in line with the National Education Blueprint 2006-2010.
Komala said of the country’s five million primary and secondary students, 27,000 comprised special needs students. Of this number, 23,000 are students with learning disabilities who attend the special education integrated programme offered at normal schools.
