Education with no Future I Pakistan Education System I EconFest Debate

Unemployment among the educated youth is on a constant rise, while the quality of education is continuously declining. Data also show that few new jobs of quality are being created in Pakistan. All this means very little opportunity for youth in the country.
Technology is disrupting every sector of society including education.
Our panel will discuss how rapidly changing technology and globalisation should impact our education system and pave way for increasing
opportunities for the young population.
Panelist:
■ ASGHAR ZAIDI (Moderator)
Vice Chancellor, Government College University, Lahore
■ MONIS RAHMAN
Co-founder & CEO, Dukan
■ AQSA SHABBIR
Associate Professor, Lahore College for Women University
■ KASIM KASURI
Chief Executive Officer, Beaconhouse School System

[@DrSamiReviews]

Very impressive talk and thanks PIDE for sharing

[@imranaaa9273]

Financial situation of a student is an issue. At times teachers pass knowing that student doesn't deserve but they know he can't afford. Overall fault lies with all ....

[@navinbhatia9936]

FUTURE of WORK Technology trend from MEGAFICATION to SINGULARITY 1-Manufacturing & services sectors will be led by MEGAFICATION or Industry 4.0technologies like AI, VR, ML, robotics, Nano technology, Genome sequencing etc 2- Society should have institutional mechanism for Learning & re learning every THREE years due to technology changes 3- Mobility for jobs within cities, states& countries. Nations with Skilled manpower (industry 4.0 technology) will hold strategic advantage

In a conference about education, the moderator is wasting time quoting Iqbal. Bhai, we don't need sensationalism. We need solutions. Stop acting like revolutionary politicians in every walk of life and try to mimic boring software engineers.

[@ShiaNoorAhlBayt]

Well needed debate ❤

[@sharjeeljawaid]

Education doesn't need merely to be market oriented. It should also build character to to be better human beings

[@ahsan8714]

Bhai Kyu Iqbal ku bech mai la rahe hu. us k baghair theek chal raha hai. We really dont want to move on, Iqbal Iqbal Iqbal. Iqbal ku Ratta karu bas. jagah dekh kar quote kar leya karu. The Remaining seminar is really amazing, a must watch seminar. Thank you for uploading.

[@rupesharma]

Excellent subject but ruined by the arrogant host. Host took majority of the time and cut many questions. Guests got little time to say and put across point. Extremely sexist Host by cutting and disrespecting the lady guest. She was polite enough to not be harsh on him. Excellent subject ruined successfully.

[@user-ib2ic9wg9q]

The need of the hour is to bring reforms to education sector

[@yousufmuhammadiofficial9281]

Agreed with the panelist representing the private sector. Working for relevant skills for the unpredictable future workforce landscape is inevitable for us to sustain. Unfortunately, the host was talking so rude while taking questions from the audience. A host with better sociability could make it more pleasant #PIDE

[@rameshrajs8140]

It's high time that Pakistan has to resort to a rehashed educational system. Govt should increase the budgets for Education, start changing the curriculum from primary level so that they are ready for the college level. If this starts tomorrow, it will take 15-20 yrs to achieve the goal ... Just replicate IIT n IIM 😊

[@khittaykachoudhary2360]

Abey Oye, Tera Dimaag Theek Hai ?? Pakistan Only Needs Madrassas and Religious Education and Arabic Education Paksitan needs 1 Million More Maddrassas so That Pakistan Can Prosper. Delete Your Message Right Now, and Stop Giving Gyaan

[@goodvibes6715]

You are wrong Pakistan needs 1 Billion More Madrassas. Allah Will Gift Pakistan Oil If Pakistan Introduces Sharia Law Like Qatar

In my opinion, Pakistan has lost heavily on what they had for something that they do not have. Pakistan is badly bleeding due to excessive obsession in Kashmir and for the pursuit of Kashmir, they lost focus on other essential things of Governance. Moreover, the job of the military is to fight war. They should not interfere in the civil governance since they are not meant for that. Pakistani Military establishment has made a mess of everything by pocking unnecessarily. They should know the role of a professional military in a sovereign state.

[@aadilhingorjo2400]

The lady has comparatively been constructive and progressive as compared to the men crying out aloud!

[@aamirhussain5982]

I am a university student, I can say that university education is just time pass. Don't get admission in public university. I wish if I had not taken admission in public university

[@vivekc434]

Challenges of higher education remained un-answered 🙏🙏

[@gulruhama9450]

Well, it is not so deep and constructive discussion as I expected... Disappointed.

[@haleemahsaida9772]

Am I wrong but these so called analysts really do like to pontificate!!! This circuitous route of getting to a point is getting very tiresome...

[@edu.pk.]

sorry to say , the host of the debate does not meet the criteria which is the essence of such prestigious sessions. Being the MoC, disagreeing with the panelists and putting the finger straight to the audience to take their questions , is not only absurd but unethical . I think this is one of the major issues that we have imposed such individuals on the higher ranks of our institutions who even do not deserve to be the part of academic institutions.

[@aqvines2914]

I was about to comment on the tone and behaviour of the moderator. He is talking about human development and doesn’t even know how to answer in a formal manner

[@NaveedRao-zx4zh]

I totally disagree with you brother moderator NY hi is debit ko carry Kiya hy

[@vvk594]

First of all remove blasphemy laws, and teach people to tolerate other religions.

[@ambarishupadhyay921]

Simply put, Pakistan as a nation has NEVER been serious about education (and knowledge in general). Religion has seeped so deeply into the school curriculum, a corrupt and incorrect version of history being taught, poor higher education standards, shamefully low number of books being published, famous people doing PhDs in how to harness the power of Jinns to generate electricity. Pakistan’s educational situation is as grossly poor as it’s economy…

[@shahrukhdaud7989]

👍👍👍

[@user-ki6vb7ot7r]

The host immensely needs to learn soft skills that he himself reflects on as a challenge or problem. Overall, it was great to have opinions from the think tanks. But, it could be more interesting if the host is replaced!

[@vivekc434]

Education is to be imparted in a unfilled minds, but Pakistani minds are already fully filled with hard religious content.

[@asadabbasmirza9519]

Ask him to give a legitimate answer to the status of Beaconhouse. How come it is kind of a trust to avoid taxation. Throw him out.

[@PuneriBaburao]

sane days back have heard that around 20 million children are out of school . how many children go to school ?

[@shafiqshafiq1312]

Asghar Zaidi Sir with due respect, sirf stage pay aa ka batain karnay say kuch nhi ho aap nay apni authority main kon se practical implementations ki hai, bus batain karwa lo en say aur lakhon main salaries de do en ko baqi enhoun nay practical kuch nhi karna

[@syedobaydbukhari1421]

Speaker or host is rather with a rude attitude.

[@NaveedRao-zx4zh]

Panalist madam bhi blaming system ko permot Kar rahi hen bas.... Agar ek big post KY member ka ye Hal hoga to Pakistan ki education ka ye hall expected hy 😢

[@sairarubab6135]

The host exhibiting a eurocentric mentality that serves the capitalist interests.

[@wajihabatool9028]

In the video said that we should learn multi skills but clg also provide us that opportunity if not so clg is just waste of time

[@asadabbasmirza9519]

Pl treat with room accoutics

[@Noman-pkr]

the host of this program has no manners of hosting, he is even insulting the students and the senior participents, there was time constraints he shouldn't have questions from the audience. he is quoting iqbal but he is trampling his teachings in the same breath

[@wajihabatool9028]

Sir in video is very rude

[@quddusquddus136]

Should a four-year old college waste its precious time teaching soft skills? Shouldn’t the students had been prepared in advance? Where had been the “sad” black struggler masquerading as a teacher? Was he too busy passing each and every imbecile with A grades? Is it possible for a Muslim ghetto to remain indifferent? Take the risk of bringing in the best curriculum, but it’s doom to fail because the rotten system ensures the longevity of millions of demoralized teachers. For a bright future. Hire “the best” and “the qualified” teachers. With high salaries. It’s no rocket science.

[@noonaafternoon]

Didn't get your point

[@quddusquddus136]

@@noonaafternoon. Pakistan society is profoundly uneducated. Educated parents do not send their children to schools. Even a middle class student is an imbecile---a blank slate. Take a look at any scene, let alone a political scene. A father of an out-of-wedlock daughter---a confirmed pygmy---shows up with chant of Mecca and Medina and the entire ghetto rocks. In such an impoverished society, profession of teaching carries a special burden. Science. Art. Literature. It's not enough that a teacher is an expensively-credentialed barbarian. He must be more than man with the right qualifications. He must be well aware of the intellectual developments that have taken during the Renaissance and the 19th century England. He must be aware of the vicious history of the Indian subcontinent. He must not show up in school just to pick up a salary. He must more than a mass man.
