In the 80's, Hong Kong has the apprentice system for secondary school leavers. As the number of university increased, and the economy changed to real estates and finance, the apprentice system was suspended. Vocational training organisations in Hong Kong visited Germany a few years ago to learn their education system. Now the MTR and CLP has it's training institute to train their engineering staff.

Hong Kong became what some scholars today call a "FIRE" economy - Finance, Insurance and Real Estate sectors came to dominate the economy. I'm afraid it has led to a host of issues (not least of which one of the most unaffordable housing market on earth). I was very surprised (through revisting the TVB drama "Seasons") to find that a 700 sqft apartment in Ho Mun Tin could still be going for much less than 1mil HKD back in the mid 80s - how much things have changed since!

That is why China's development model is to be industrial based. That is why China is now leading in all kinds of manufacturing, including ship building, gigapress, 5G telecom equipment, car batteries, electric cars etc.

I really liked this video, would like to see more like this. Interesting to know how German society runs. Maybe something like "A Day in the life of a ..." bus driver, waitress, teacher, etc.
Germany is so ahead of the game when it comes to vocational training.

This whole setup makes so much sense, I wish U.S. can learn and adopt something similar and maybe this will bring down the extreme cost of college education here. You learn a lot more this way than what U.S. college can offer, it’s pretty much a total waste of time from most of the colleges in U.S.
Thank you. Fantastic video. There are so much we can learn from each side. In work and in life style. Germany has a strong industries. I hope it can ride out the current energy crisis and continue to be great.
The employees have 15-year stay on average in the company. Such a nice employer. The longest architectural firm I ever worked for was 3 and several months in Atlanta, GA, USA. The German employer's responsibility to employees shall be learned in U.S.
