𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗵 𝗘𝗻𝗴𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝗖𝗿𝘂𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗠𝗮𝗹𝗮𝘆𝘀𝗶𝗮❜𝘀 𝗙𝘂𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 Engaging youth in Malaysia is more important than ever. With 45% of our population under 25 years old, the potential for dynamic change and progress is immense. However, this demographic needs our support to harness their full potential. Here’s why: * Demographic Dividend: By 2030, Malaysia's youth population is projected to reach over 11 million. This "demographic dividend" can drive economic growth if harnessed effectively. * Unemployment Rate: Youth unemployment stands at 10.8%, highlighting the need for targeted initiatives to provide job opportunities and skills training. * Education Disparity: Despite high enrollment rates, 20% of Malaysian youth are not in employment, education, or training (NEET). Integrating education with job market needs is essential. * Mental Health: A 2019 survey revealed that 1 in 5 Malaysian youths face mental health issues, emphasizing the need for support systems and engagement activities. Recommended Actions: * Enhance Stakeholder Engagement: Foster collaboration among ministries, NGOs, and student groups to create unified strategies for youth development. * Increase Budget Allocation: Advocate for more funding for impactful youth initiatives that provide real benefits, such as job training and mental health support. * Integrate Programs: Establish frameworks to reduce redundancies in youth programs, ensuring resources are used efficiently and effectively. * Develop a Communication Strategy: Rebuild public trust through transparent and consistent communication about youth policies and initiatives. * Support Local Initiatives: Provide funding and training for grassroots organizations that directly engage and empower young people in their communities. "By investing in our youth, we invest in Malaysia's future. Empowered youth are the key to a resilient and progressive nation." – MRC CEO Azmi Mat Nayan. MRC is preparing to assist various relevant stakeholders by offering strategic guidance, facilitating stakeholder engagement, and developing effective communication strategies. #YouthEngagement #MalaysiaFuture #YouthEmpowerment #EconomicGrowth #PublicTrust #MRC #CommunitySupport

Critical Review of Fuel Subsidy Cuts and Political Ramifications in Malaysia The recent article in The Edge Malaysia highlights the significant political impact of fuel subsidy cuts. MRC supports the rationale behind subsidy cuts but stresses the importance of careful implementation. MRC CEO, Azmi Mat Nayan: "Fuel subsidy reforms are necessary for economic stability. However, it is crucial to implement these changes strategically to minimize impact on vulnerable groups." Key Issues: 1. Public Discontent: Unpopular cuts leading to electoral losses. 2. Economic Rationale: Necessary for reducing fiscal deficits. 3. Political Fallout: Underestimated public reaction. 4. Household Impact: Increased financial pressure. 5. Broader Implications: Need for sustainable fiscal policies.

🌐 Managing Market Competition and Protecting Consumers: MRC's Vision ___________________________________ Amid Malaysia's economic recovery, MRC highlights the pivotal roles of market competition and consumer protection. "Promoting fair competition and safeguarding consumer rights are essential for economic resilience," says MRC CEO Azmi Mat Nayan. Our recommendations advocate for regulatory reforms to dismantle monopolies, strengthen oversight to prevent anti-competitive practices, and support SMEs through targeted initiatives. By implementing stringent consumer protection measures, inspired by global models like India's Consumer Protection Act, Malaysia can ensure transparency and trust in business dealings. These efforts aim to position Malaysia as a competitive player in high-value industries and foster sustainable economic growth. #MarketCompetition #ConsumerProtection #EconomicResilience https://lnkd.in/ghexvWvE
