Zahid wants more Sabah youths exposed to TVET


KOTA KINABALU: More young people in Sabah must be exposed to technical and vocational education and training (TVET) to meet the demand for skilled manpower from foreign or domestic investors in the country, says Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi.

Ahmad Zahid, who is also Rural and Regional Development Minister, said China had recently offered to invite 2,000 Malaysian students to follow TVET programmes with full scholarships in the country and he wanted to ensure that 500 of these places are filled by Sabah youth.
