Cut red tape to encourage TVET growth, MEF tells govt - superadmin - 12-26-2022 PETALING JAYA: The Malaysian Employers Federation (MEF) has urged the government to remove the red tape on tax incentives to encourage internships for technical and vocational education training (TVET) students. MEF president Syed Hussain Syed Husman said the current TVET system is bogged down by the multiple overlapping mandates and jurisdictions of ministries and agencies. “Do away with the prevailing bureaucratic red tape for employers to avail themselves to the tax incentives for providing internship places,” he said in a statement today. Doing so would encourage more micro and small and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) to provide internship places to students requiring industrial training. Syed Hussain said there was a need for industries to be actively engaged in the development of the TVET curriculum, delivery methods and evaluation. - More -
