KUALA TERENGGANU: Sabah chief minister Hajiji Noor has urged Sabahan students to seize every opportunity provided by the state government through various initiatives to empower human capital development.
Hajiji said human capital development was one of the aspects emphasised in the Sabah Maju Jaya roadmap.
As such, he said, the Yayasan Sabah Group offered various types of scholarships, such as the Sabah state excellent scholarship, excellence rural students scholarship, public/private higher educational institution scholarship, and study loans.
“I hope all of you will seize the initiatives the government provides. Have the determination to give back to the community because your service is needed to develop our beloved state,” he said at a breaking of fast event with about 500 students at the Islamic Civilisation Park here last night.
His speech was read by state science, technology and innovation minister Arifin Arif.
Hajiji, who is also the Yayasan Sabah board of trustees chairman, said the state government also provided various platforms for students to voice their views, including through the Sabah Student Consultation Council (MPPS) conference that was first held in May 2022.
He said the state government also allocated RM16.2 million in the state budget this year to implement youth programmes to produce quality leaders.
“Our hope is to be able to produce students who are not only successful in the academic field but who also have good character,” he said. - FMT
