    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me an opportunity to contribute to this Bill. From the outset, I support the Bill as it is presented. Of course, we are going to have amendments. In this nation of ours, we have had NYS from Independence and over those many years, we had it transform into various forms. I want to say that over that period of time, we have had very huge investments in the NYS. Even though what happened last year was a very bad thing, it is only reasonable to think about how to prevent such things from occurring and make use of the many facilities and infrastructure which has already been set up. I was in the NYS cohort of the mid 1980s before I joined university. Everybody has spoken how, initially, we were worried, but when we went through the course, we came out very happy people. The training was wonderful and great. In this country, one of the biggest problems that we have is what we are going to do with our youth, even though the NYS is taken as the last option. As has been stated, even if you are in the NYS, there is no guarantee that you will be taken into the disciplined forces. Of course, that has created it into some kind of last resort measure. If you miss anything else, that is the only time you go to the NYS. In this Bill, we need to think innovatively how to make the NYS a better institution and to encourage as many youths as possible, even those with high qualification, to join. Over the years, we have been creating universities and converting mid-level colleges into universities and the result is that we have ended up generating many graduates who cannot get jobs. Even the trainings that we provide at the NYS after their initial recruitment should be as diverse and as complete as possible. We should not train them for formal jobs only. Rather, they should do many things on their own. Currently, the way it is, when people join the NYS, they look forward The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
