A new push to recruit more youths into middle-level colleges and prepare them to get jobs within six months of graduation has been hatched by the Ministry of Education.

The master-plan aims to raise training opportunities in Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) institutions to 3.1 million, up from the current 180,000.
