Greetings from Malaysia.
‘Malaysia Truly Asia’

The youth of Malaysia have a critical role to play in the country’s effort to achieve the status of a fully developed country by the year 2020.Malaysia’s development plan, known as Vision 2020, aims to develop all aspects of the country including national unity, social cohesion, economy, social justice, political stability, system of government, quality of life, social and spiritual values and national pride and confidence.

Malaysia has total population of 28 million people and the youth covered 12.8 million of them.

Ladies and gentlemen,

Youth development in Malaysia is managed primarily by three major organizations: the National Youth Consultative Council; the Ministry of Youth and Sports; and the Malaysian Youth Council.

I) The National Youth Consultative Council (NYCC), formed in 1972, is the principal body responsible for youth policy formulation in Malaysia. Chaired by the Ministry of Youth and Sports. The objectives of the NYCC are:
-To monitor the implementation of the National Youth Policy
-To advise the Minister of Youth and Sports in formulating policies on issues related to youth development
-To act as a consultative and advisory body for youth organizations and the State Youth Consultative Councils;and
-To coordinate the planning and activities of all youth organizations and the State Youth Consultative Councils.

The NYCC convenes twice a year to discuss reports submitted from the participating members as well as other topics of interest.

II) The Malaysian Youth Council is a Non-governmental Organization, established in 1948 and one of the earliest countries in the world to own national youth council. MYC is the coordinating body of youth organizations in Malaysia which main concern is to express the nation’s youth voices to the government and relevant agencies,locally and internationally.It plays an active role in monitoring the implementation of the National Youth Policy as well as in the policy formulation process through the NYCC.

MYC work hand in hand with all actors to empower Malaysian youth to a higher level through
i) advocacy system
