He said the programme was still under consideration but should suit the age of the participants.

“It probably won’t involve students who are still in school, maybe after they finish school and for those who want to go to university,” he said at a press conference at the Parliament building.

“We haven’t finalised (the age range) yet.”

Khaled said PLKN 3.0 is expected to start next year and will consist of statehood and military aspects.

“The curriculum for statehood will be discussed with the higher education ministry.

“The military aspect will be taken care of by the defence ministry,” he said.

The government previously decided to reimplement PLKN at 13 territorial army camps, as well as the police training centre (Pulapol), after a five-year suspension to cut costs.
