EVERY dream begins with an opportunity. Through the Malaysian Indian Skills Initiative (MISI), the Indian community in Malaysia is being given a chance to acquire vocational training and employment opportunities for a new start in life.
MISI is not merely a programme but a bridge between potential and achievement, between dreams and reality.
Implemented through agencies such as HRD Corp and TalentCorp – two agencies under the Human Resources Ministry (KESUMA) – the initiative focuses on skills training, job opportunities and career development.
The true strength of MISI lay not in figures or performance reports but in the human success stories behind them. The programme helps develop technical skills as well as build confidence, dignity and a future for its participants.
From village girl to multinational company engineer
In the past, Yuemystra Veswalinggam has only heard of big names like Jabil on television.
A native of Kulim from a B40 family earning about RM2,500 a month, she struggled to find a job after graduation, especially with no experience and living far from the city.
Everything changed when she joined the MISI programme, which was established to help the Malaysian Indian community access training and employment opportunities.
