"content": "The main problem has been the education system that we have had. It has been inappropriate. What has happened over the years from the time I was a small child is that if you go to school and pass your exams, you are assured that you will get a job. What we have done over the years is to create job seekers without creating job producers. Our education, to a large extent, does not involve even vocational skills and that is why even up to university level people cannot get jobs. They cannot create jobs. You have heard, for example, that engineers from local universities are not able to fit in the market. The problem is mis-training because we train engineers but we do not train technologies. So, what the industries are looking for are technologists but they are taking up engineers to do technology jobs. So, they have to re-train them. That means that there is something that we have to look at. I am happy looking at the Authority being created because it is looking at the appropriateness of training and the membership is appropriate for that."
