    "content": "As I wind up, I saw a very interesting article yesterday. The youth were saying that instead of the Government creating employment for the old people; people who have worked for more than 10 years, and have the experience and the money to open up businesses, it should consider the young people. So, the story of telling the youth to start businesses when they have no money and experience to manage anything needs to be re-thought through. The proposal was that we need to relook at the retirement age of people who have worked for a long time in very specialised areas. We need to rethink about the retirement age so that we can get employment opportunities for the people who have finished school so that we can minimise the burden we have. People go to school and camp home. Parents are whining. They have spent their last coins to take their sons and daughters to school and yet, they have nowhere to take them for employment. Even when we tell them to start entrepreneurships or businesses, they have no hands-on experience to run those businesses. They do not have capital. But people who have worked for long time have the money and experience. Therefore, we should encourage them to start businesses instead of recycling them in employment when we have so many youths who are unemployed."
