Education that we need

It is hardly a new thing that education and industry are among the most fundamental factors for a country to develop itself. As we consider education to be the backbone of a nation, it may not be an overstatement to say that industries are at the heart of national development. Unfortunately, however, we are not even concerned about our sheer inability to design our educational system as per the needs of our industries. 

It explains why our universities are producing depressed and unskilled graduates who remain unemployed or underemployed for long, while local industries have to depend on expensive foreign expertise.
