Make the right choice, says MEF president


Malaysian Employers Federation president Datuk Dr Syed Hussain Syed Husman.

PETALING JAYA: Malaysia’s job mismatch situation will persist if students do not make the right pick of courses or are not given their preferred choice, thus ending up with jobs unrelated to their interests, says Malaysian Employers Federation (MEF) president Datuk Dr Syed Hussain Syed Husman.

“This leads to long-term losses for both individuals and the economy as they end up in careers unrelated to their expertise and qualifications,” he said, describing the situation as “unfortunate”.
