Food for all


Salha Bevi Leyakat Ali

Attracting youths to join the agriculture and farming sector by equipping them with technical and vocational education and training (TVET) can help address food security issues and rising produce prices.

Calling on the government to do more to promote the sector, Bumiputra Private Skills Training Institution action committee chairman Nordin Abdul Malek said through TVET, youths will learn how to produce crops and breed animals that can become a crucial source in our food supply.
