Wisma Putra is having difficulties in finding the right candidates for the 300 or more vacancies in the ministry. This problem occurs almost everywhere nowadays. Employers are just not satisfied with the candidates to fill the positions in their companies. I share Syed Nadzri’s sentiment that our education system is the culprit in breeding mediocrity.
It’s sad to see how some graduates of Mass Communications having problems with connecting with people. How some of them feel easily intimidated in new environments, lacking the initiatives to advance in work situations, giving in to low self confidence. Some even purposely looking for jobs that don’t need them to run around meeting people, minimising contacts with the outside world.
Seeing this happening at work, really frustrate and angered me somehow. What happen to these poor souls in the varsities? Were they really learning or merely going with the flow until they get the certificates? Did they just buried themselves in books, burning the midnight oil, not making any effort to learn in social environments on or off campus?
Instead of embracing challenges, the things they learn at the varsities, turn them into a bunch of lazy cowards. I wonder if they learn anything at all. And by learning I don’t mean memorising from textbooks and lecture notes and then purging them verbatim on the examination sheets.
You tell me.
