Military vets can help in national service, says Ahmad


PONTIAN: Former armed forces veterans could serve as instructors or in other roles in the National Service Training Programme (PLKN), says Deputy Finance Minister I Datuk Seri Ahmad Maslan.

Ahmad, who is also a member of the National Veterans Council, said veterans not only had experience in the military field but also specific skills that they could pass on at the programme, which will be held at selected military camps across the country.
