SEREMBAN: The Negri Sembilan government is optimistic at becoming the first state to achieve the target of 60% of students pursuing higher education for a career in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM), says Datuk Seri Aminuddin Harun.

The Mentri Besar said it is important, especially as Negri Sembilan is now transitioning from an agricultural state to an industrial state, which will definitely need more expertise to develop the sector in the future.
