For higher education, it notes the recent approval of a new education law but that implementation will determine its practical effects. For TVET, it identifies insufficient quality of programs and unpopularity among youth as problems widening the skills gap, and recommends improving industry partnerships, public relations to increase prestige, and ensuring employment opportunities for graduates.

Vocational Education and Technical Skills Training for Indigenous in MalaysiaNorwaliza Abdul Wahab
This paper discusses the participation of Indigenous community in the field of Technical and Vocational
education (TVE) and in the specialized programs in Skills Training Institutions (STI) in Malaysia.
Marginalization of Indigenous youth in terms of education and employment in Malaysia is critical and needs to
be addressed. High unemployment among the Orang Asli youth may be attributed to their lack of proper skills
required by the employers. Thus, vocational training is needed to ensure the competitiveness of these people in
the era of globalization to live a more comfortable life and have a better socio-economic status (SES). This paper
also deliberates on the developmental history of TVE, the aims and the objectives of its implementation in the
education system. Apart from these, the training and skills programs for the Indigenous youth who are drop-outs
and have completed schooling were also discussed. This paper also presents the conclusion and
recommendations to improve the participation of Indigenous community in the TVE and STI. If the
recommendations are taken positively by the relevant authorities in-charge of the Indigenous people, the future
of Indigenous youth will be brighter because it will improve their employment prospects and enhance their social
mobility and status.
The document outlines the world's worst problems such as animal extinction, fuel and water shortages, war, hunger, and pollution. It states that society is declining due to a lack of thinking about these issues, and that water shortages will lead to increased starvation as there won't be enough water to support meat production. The goals of the cited cities are to reduce waste of non-renewable resources and unnecessary water, decrease accidents, prevent animal extinction, have fish farms as a protein source, and use hunting and gathering rather than wasting water on food processing. The town's cars run on solar and wind power without pollution or wasting non-renewable resources unlike the cited city of New York.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17Celine George
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.

This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.

2. Introduction
The MBA program originated in the United States in the late 19th
century as the country was undergoing rapid industrialization and
companies sought out scientific approaches to management.
Very good reception from the manufacturing and banking sectors
(strongholds of the US economy at that time). The program gained
immense popularity in US and grew rapidly.
MBA infiltrates Europe in the 1950s. India was bitten by the MBA
bug in 1957.
Post liberalization period (post 1992) in India saw a surge in the no
of B-schools. MBA became the most coveted professional degree. No
of MBAs grew from a mere 700 per year in 1961 to 100,000+ in 2011.
3. Birth and growth of MBA
MBA arrives in India. IISWBM
and Delhi University start MBA
programs. IIM C and IIM A start
functioning in 1961. Offer PGDM.
5. Global Statistics – Exponential rise in the
number of MBA graduates
Stating from the early 1950s, MBA
programs received tremendous
industry patronage and grew at an
exponential rate.
Rise in the last 35 years has been
significantly high. From a mere
20000 graduates worldwide, it has
reached an amazing figure of 6 lakh
MBA graduates.
The Global Trend shows that even
though no of MBAs have been
increasing exponentially over the
years, post recession, the trend has
slowed down.
MBA education is Reaching its
maturity stage.
6. Utility of MBA
MBA as a degree evolved due to the needs generated by the rapid
industrialization in US. Hence its utility lies in the basic need of the
industry – scientific approaches in management.
MBA empowers professional with an in depth knowledge and
prowess of specific areas such as Finance, Marketing, HR etc.
MBA’s with their knowledge and skills help industries develop better
processes, provide better services, bring in novel ideas and
inculcate innovation – thereby making the business more profitable.
With rapid advancement in Technology the requirement for more
adaptive and technologically well versed MBAs is becoming
imperative. As MBA is constantly evolving and aligning itself with
these needs, recruiters are getting the right fits from the MBA
graduates.
Over the years MBA graduates have grabbed the highest
compensation packages from the leading players in the industrywhich shows the continued confidence of the industry in their
abilities and their utility.
7. Future of MBA
The global recession in 2008-2009 was a bitter shock to the MBA
graduates, as many lost their jobs and businesses went bankrupt. But
in the post recession period, the demand for quality MBAs has
revived, with even better roles and salaries. This shows that MBA is
here to stay; and that MBA is not a dying program, rather it is still in
its growth phase in the S-Curve.
The recent compensation
trends in HBS and other Ivey
league B-schools in USA also
show that the recruiters have
not lost their confidence
in MBAs, post recession.
