Government funding critical for TVET programmes


REFERRING to the report “Budget 2025: Youth leaders want more funds for skills training, digital startups” (The Star, Oct 9), I would like to highlight the critical importance of government funding for Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) programmes.

As our society increasingly shifts toward a knowledge-based economy, the demand for skilled workers in various trades and technologies will continue to rise. However, without adequate support and resources for TVET institutions, we risk leaving a significant gap in our workforce.
