00:23 to work together and expand learning and development opportunities for the people.
00:29 Distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen,
00:32 After two challenging years, we are finally enjoying a period of economic stability,
00:39 backed by a growing labour participation rate, which stands at 70.1% as of July this year.
00:49 To continue our growth and recovery momentum, we all must continue to invest into our talents and workforce.
00:57 This is why efforts by the Ministry of Human Resources and HRD Corporation are crucial
01:05 in helping us to achieve this aim by creating the right policies
01:11 and ensuring the delivery of a structured mechanism for training and training funds.
01:18 I will also make to understand that the Ministry of Human Resources have also introduced various initiatives
01:26 to provide upskilling, placement, employment and income generation opportunities for communities in need,
01:35 such as single mothers, former prisoners, senior citizens and persons with disabilities.
01:44 These are good efforts to ensure that no one is left behind, and we can grow together as a nation.
01:52 With the initiatives put forward by the Ministry of Human Resources and the collective efforts of industry players,
02:00 I am confident that we can achieve our goal of having a 35% skilled workforce by 2030.
02:09 After the launch ceremony, the King was taken on a tour of the exhibition centre,
02:15 which has over 400 exhibitors from various industries.
02:19 You said no, no, no, I said no, no, no, no. You say take me home, I say no, no, no.
