Dimapur, October 27 : Rajya Sabha MP KG Kenye opined that the Naga people are yet to catch up with the quality educational system because of the Naga political struggle.
Kenye observed that in this fast paced world, there are many influences both from the modern technology and traditional system of life while calling upon all to strive hard for what is right and good thereby strengthening the foundation for excellence.
He was addressing the silver jubilee celebration of Veyieta Memorial Government High School (VMGHS) Porba under Chizami sub-division of Phek district as the chief guest on Thursday.
Noting that virtue of truthfulness, honesty and hardworking of Naga forefathers is fast diminishing, he stressed that the good virtues of the forefathers should be imbibed on the youngsters through the educational institutes.
“Honesty and hardworking are the most precious gems, which even the world has been looking for but Nagas have it since generation and they only need to cultivate it,” he said.
The MP also honoured the pioneers of the school for their dedication and hard work in bringing laurels and in producing many prominent personalities in various fields.
Deputy Commissioner Phek Muruho Chotso, who was the guest of honour, said no one can be judged from his degree as many of them do not have any skills and do not want to take up any other job, except for white colour job.
Technical courses should be taken up in order to be self-reliant instead of being a simple graduate without any skills, he said.
In this competitive world, simply completing higher education won't be enough but one has to take up industrial and technical courses to enhance one's own skills, he said while appealing VMGHS Porba to set an example for the rest of government schools in the district.
