When it comes to youth empowerment, Youth and Sports Minister Hannah Yeoh believes that it does not matter what careers youths want as long as they have a decent job, are financially independent and happy.

“That’s why I’m shaping policies to equip them with life skills,” said Yeoh at a dialogue session hosted by Standard Chartered Malaysia at EQ Kuala Lumpur.
