Nilai ekonomi tinggi bantu atasi isu graduan ‘cukup makan’

Malaysia needs to boost its economy to provide graduates with better salaries, says Human Resources Minister V. Sivakumar. Currently, the job market lacks sufficient high-value jobs for the 400,000 graduates produced annually, with only 50,000 such positions available. This imbalance leads to a paradox where many graduates are underemployed, earning less than RM3,000 and struggling to make ends meet. The minister emphasizes the need to enhance the economy's value to create more high-value jobs.
