The MoU is also regarded as "outward-looking" and a "catalyst" in accelerating KSM's focus on strengthening the national skills framework and developing a skilled talent pool in Malaysia.
Following the MoU exchange, NSDC shared more on the Sectoral Skills Framework and the impact created from it. The session was joined by Secretary General of the Ministry of Skills Development and Entrepreneurship, Atul Kumar Tiwari, and CEO of NSDC, Ved Mani Tiwari. Also present were TalentCorp's Deputy Secretary General (Operation), YBhg. Datuk Muhd. Khair Razman Mohamed Annuar, and CEO, Thomas Mathew, as well as the Deputy High Commissioner of Malaysia in New Delhi, Amizal Fadzli Rajali.
