Last year, we visited Kedah and had 15 students attended the program
which 10 of them have failed BM (min requirement is a Pass in BM)
which were subsequently referred for Kedah Industrial Skills and
Management Development Centre (KISMEC) programs. Out of the balance 5
which have passed BM, we have been updated 3 have been offered to
enroll in the ILP Program [ILP Arumugam Pillai (2) and ILP Kepala
Batas (1)].

Do assist us to disseminate this information,a poster is attached. The
target group for this program might need a different approach i.e
personal touch may be needed, to encourage them to attend and often
they would not be connected via emails. Thus, please personally assist
to spread this information with your family or friends whom you think
might benefit from this program. This year we hope to encourage at
