Just Fancy That!

Something is really wrong with Malaysian youth these days. They just do not know their geography outside of Malaysia.



In some of their interviews for jobs, job-seekers were asked a simple question. "If you were given a place to go, where would you choose?"

Most would answer" Bali" as it is a resort island in Indonesia familiar to most Malaysians.

However,one fine day, the interviewer got a earful.

One smart chap answered he would like to go to Paris. When asked further where is Paris; he replied it was in New Zealand. Then, there was this other guy who wanted to show that he was religious. He chose to go to Mecca. When asked where is Mecca, he said it was in Egypt.

Shocking!

How do we develop K-workers if the next generation of Malaysian leaders don't even know their geography!
