Grads must continue learning: Jaujan

Kota Kinabalu: The new State Government under the leadership of Chief Minister Datuk Seri Mohd Shafie Apdal really cares and is committed on education for young people in Sabah in its effort to further develop the State. Deputy Chief Minister Datuk Dr Jaujan Sambakong said because of this the State Government appreciates the presence of colleges like Kinabalu Commercial College (KCC) and others which give opportunities for the young to further their studies in the fields they like.

"What is important is the students successfully complete their respective study and get a job so they can use all that they have learnt in their respective career for the betterment of their life," he said when officiating the KCC Graduation Nite 2018 held at Pacific Sutera Hotel, here.

Jaujan, who is also Local Government and Housing Minister, also urged students, especially those who have just graduated, not to be too complacent and stop learning new things, which is vital especially in this ever challenging era.

"For us to remain competitive during the ever challenging digital era, we must continue learning and be innovative and move along the advancement of technology," he said.
