For the last discussion to our group work "Unemployment among undergraduates in Malaysia", here I want give the conclusion as my opinion..... :)


The issue of high unemployment rate among undergraduates, the Higher Education Ministry would step up its cooperation with Human Resources Minister to study market needs and apply necessary changes to the university curriculum. There are some 27,000 jobless graduates and we should to overcome this problem by placing them on attachment at ministries or ask them to take up ICT (information and communication technology) courses apart from boosting their English Language proficiency.

So, we must serious to overcome unemployment problems among undergraduates. It is important to avoid unemployment increase more and to decrease negative effects that had been because of unemployment.
