    "content": "Sometime back we had the 8-4-4 system and this is being changed again. That system was meant to help people learn how to get skills and put them into implementation. That has not worked and now we have a change of the educational system. Madam Temporary Speaker, I hope that in the long-run, we will be able to instill in the youth these job creation opportunities by enabling them not only to have the skills, but also get the appropriate funding to move into employment and self-creation of jobs; move to blue collar jobs.

The TVET programmes in 182 colleges with 430,598 students in these technical colleges is helpful to a large extent, but the whole mind shift from academic education driven to being employed to a blue collar education that enables people to create employment for themselves is very critical.

A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
