7 ministries overseeing TVET? Of course programmes didn’t meet 11MP targets: Nurul Izzah

KUALA LUMPUR – The opposition has slammed the government’s approach to the Technical Education and Vocational Training (TVET) programmes, especially when it was found that they did not realise the targets set in the 11th Malaysia Plan.

Pakatan Harapan (PH) TVET committee member Nurul Izzah Anwar told The Vibes that having seven ministries involved in TVET only leads to the programmes’ fragmentation, and contributed to problems that are often associated with patronage and uneven power dynamics.

“It is important to note TVET’s accreditation body, the Department of Skills Development (JPK), is under the purview of the Human Resources Ministry, which is usually perceived as subservient to other ministries.”

Nurul Izzah, who was TVET empowerment committee chair in 2018, added that the TVET and industry commission mooted during the PH administration should have been established.

“It would have helped to coordinate the seven relevant ministries in fulfilling the country’s needs for a skilled workforce.”
