KUALA LUMPUR: The National Service Training Programme will not be confined to school students but those who are in university as well as youths who are not pursuing tertiary education, says Adly Zahari.
On the mid-term review of the Defence White Paper, Adly said the ministry is looking into certain strategies related to the policy document.“There were a few factors that were beyond our expectation such as Covid-19. We also saw some important aspects related to our cybersecurity especially on Artificial Intelligence as well as other factors related to climate change and so on,” he added.
Adly said the government is committed to enhance the capacity of the military based on the targets outlined in the document. He said in line with the second strategy which is comprehensive defence, Adly said the ministry will increase awareness of the people on the second pillar of the white paper through Civil-Military Cooperation.
