It’s time for soft skills


I REFER to Datuk Dr Sharom Ahmat’s letter pertaining to “soft skills” (StarEducation, July 2). I fully agree with him that soft skills among students should be nurtured through secondary schooling (indeed, right from primary schooling).  

Our content and examination-oriented education system does not focus adequately on developing students’ social skills.
