The legislator stressed the necessity of collaboration between the public and private sectors to bolster policies benefiting youth, including the implementation of the National Youth Empowerment Strategy (2023-2028), designed to support young national cadres and nurture their skills through various projects and programs.

She highlighted the legislative authority’s commitment to creating an enabling environment for youth to invest in their capabilities and creativity, providing them with opportunities to contribute to the nation’s construction, development, and ongoing achievements.
