  "account": "Malaysia has emphasized its role as the bridge-builder in developing green skills and workforce readiness at the WorldSkills Shanghai 2026 Conference and Expo held at the National Exhibition and Convention Centre in China. The Prime Minister, Anwar Ibrahim, highlighted Malaysia's responsibility in spearheading the Asia-Pacific Green Skills Agenda during the ASEAN Labor Ministers' Meeting and the three Dialogue Partners' meeting in Bangkok recently. \"Malaysia has been entrusted to steer the Green Skills Agenda for the period 2026-2030, which will help prepare our workforce for a greener economy,\" he stated during his opening speech at the plenary session and expo in the National Exhibition and Convention Centre today.\n\nIbrahim, also the Finance Minister, referred to Malaysia's National Semiconductor Strategy setting an investment target of over RM500 billion by 2030, while also targeting to train and upgrade 60,000 high-skilled engineers in Malaysia. \"Investment flowing into Malaysia is due to various reasons; however, we all know that investment will grow predominantly in areas with sufficient skilled workforce to support its growth,\" he added.\n\nAround 1,400 young skilled individuals from more than 65 countries and regions gathered in the metropolis of Shanghai to compete in 64 skill categories. Malaysia sent 22 young talents representing 21 skill categories. The Prime Minister arrived in Shanghai on Tuesday for a three-day work trip to Hangzhou. Later in the afternoon, he and the delegation will board a high-speed train to Hangzhou, the capital city of Zhejiang Province, to continue their visit. China has remained Malaysia's largest trading partner for the 17th consecutive year, with bilateral trade crossing USD113.82 billion (RM456.68 billion) for the period January to August of this year.",
