The Need For Reskilling And Upskilling To Stay Relevant

The World Economic Forum (WEF) published ‘The Future of Jobs Report’ in 2020, warning that recession and the robot revolution may displace 85 million jobs by 2025. Machines are set to take over information and data processing, administrative tasks and routine manual jobs of white collar and blue collar workers.

Malaysian Red Cross Kuala Lumpur Flood Relief Through Bantuan Tabung Bencana

Recently, we have been shocked by severe flooding in several states of this country. An estimated of 68, 341 victims and 18, 080 families had been evacuated from their homes and were placed in 396 temporary evacuation centres. This unexpected tragedy caused victims to lose their homes, belongings, and household equipment, as well as loved ones, in the blink of an eye. Although the flood has begun to recede, the victim’s suffering continues.
