I am launching a project aimed at providing Malaysian youths, especially those from underprivileged communities, better access to training in soft skills and youth programs (like conferences and competitions). There has always been a discrepancy in Malaysia where scholarships meant to benefit those in the lower-income bracket end up being awarded to those in the higher income bracket. A major reason why this occurs is due to the fact that higher-income students are given more opportunities that ultimately work in their favour in securing these scholarships which is widely seen as a status symbol nowadays. I am developing this initiative with the hope of reducing this inequality and allowing these youth to have a better chance of obtaining financial aid from corporations.
