I do agree with this sentiment but an individual can only do so much on their own at some point the government also needs to provide a better system a lot of people in my country even after gaining a degree still do not have enough job opportunities in the country that is why they opt to leave the country resulting in brain drain and the rest that were left can not study because of their livelihoods
All the governments wanted to provide better facilities and create new opportunities for their people or at least that is what they claim publicly, but in many countries this doesn't happen. Anyone think about why people have such low moral values in some countries? A persons moral value needs to be created from his childhood and all these people who are always vocal about a country's corruption don't talk about why their youths are getting drug addicted and why the government failed miserably to solve this issue. If we can create a generation that has high moral values, half the job is already done. They are the ones that will create the foundation that will serve the nation for the next few generations.
Both the government and the governed should complement each other. While the masses are trying so hard to improve on themselves by acquiring the basic skills and knowledge needed for self development, the government should also create a conducive environment for the people so they can carryout out their businesses or plans effectively. We know that when the people are given the necessary incentives needed, the country as a whole will be advancing .
A person might have productive capabilities and still not be productive if the environment he is living in is not encouraging his efforts. A person who wants to set up an enterprise might have to deal with the issue of poor road network to the site which he intends to set up the enterprise, including other forms of barriers. This is why many will choose to relocate to other countries where their skills, talents and efforts will be appreciated.
