What is Rakan Muda All About?

OUR YOUNG, OUR HOPE.

Malaysia is a young country with a young population.
In fact, out of a total population of 19 million, over 7 million are between the ages of 15-34 years and this trend is anticipated to continue until the turn of the century.
With a keen eye on its economic future and to sustain its social stability, the country is galvanising and moulding young people with the principles and character to carry on the momentum of success.
More so as independent surveys and media reports have brought to light the disturbing news that many young people appear to lack the motivation and drive to be a part of Malaysia's success story. Instead, many were falling victim to the many social ills.
In response to this national concern, a strategic mission for young people was formulated to:
Instill a sense of pride, belonging and confidence
Promote a sense of unity, loyalty and patriotism
Cultivate a thirst for knowledge and the motivation for self-improvement
Inculcate an appreciation for high moral values and positive attitudes
In short, the inculcation of these principles were to instil in our young people a lasting, driving sense of pride, ambition and community spirit. To make them a national resource, the future hope of the nation.

From this, Rakan Muda (or Young Partners) was born.
