He said this came about after 90 days of rigorous engagement sessions with various groups of society through dialogues, workshops, phone interviews and online surveys, The Star reported today.

Khairy said the response towards the TN50 movement in its first phase was quite encouraging with about half a million youths taking part in various sessions.

“We have received all sorts of feedback, but we managed to categorise it into five main aspirations,” he said at a special media briefing in Putrajaya.

Khairy said Malaysians wanted a Malaysia that was united, fair, sustainable, competitive and economically strong.

“A lot of young Malaysians want a Malaysia that is able to generate high-income jobs in the future,” he was quoted as saying by the daily.

He added that feedback from the youths also showed that many of them wanted more flexible working conditions where they are able to have a permanent day job which allows them to work from home.

“This flexible working condition would enable them to have a second career, perhaps in a freelance manner.”

According to The Star, Khairy said under the second phase on TN50, the aspirations gathered would be analysed and summarised before being collated to the TN50 document.

Five groups called “Circles of the Future” will be formed, and each “circle” will consist of 10 youths and three experts.

The five circles will analyse five topics – economy and jobs, environment and well-being, governance, lifestyle and community.

Khairy said the public could propose individuals whom they felt had the calibre to join the “Circles of the Future”.

He called for the public to propose names of their preferred candidates at the TN50 website.
