Paragraph text
It is incumbent upon States to "create an economic environment and incentives, to encourage enterprises to invest in education and training". In this respect, corporate social responsibility has a special significance. In addition, employers have a direct responsibility to provide training financing in a lifelong learning perspective. In the Blueprint on Enculturation of Lifelong Learning for Malaysia (2011-2020), under the Lifelong Learning Award of Excellence initiative, it is proposed that relevant acts and regulations be amended "to make it compulsory for employers to fund their employees' lifelong learning activities".
