KUWIM Programme Director, Nazir Hussin Akhtar Husin said through this programme, participants would be given exposure to grab the opportunities made available by the government via various schemes, grants and business assistance by related agencies.

The participants would also be given guidance to change their mindset to become more positive, hence, this can improve their standard of living, he said during an interview on 'Dalam Radar' programme on Bernama Radio24 last night.

Nazir Hussin, who is also Umno Youth Young Workers Secretariat Chairman, said KUWIM can become the best platform especially amongst the more than three million blue collar workers in the country to create young entrepreneurs who are competitive for the sake of their future.

KUW1M, which will travel to 10 locations nationwide from March 23, represents a new government initiative managed by Pertubuhan Kebajikan dan Rekreasi Richworks Group Sdn Bhd, in cooperation with motivational expert, Dr Azizan Osman.

According to Nazir Hussin, Prime Minster Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak is expected to launch the programme at the first location, that is, Wisma PGRM in Kuala Lumpur.

The programme will be continued at other locations later including in Melaka, Kota Baharu, Pahang and Johor.
