[QUOTE="sri_lion, post: 452396, member: 4103"] Hello chamithal, what you have analyzed is correct... Just to add to that, I would like to give you an insight about what I have experienced......... I think that it might help you, I have been living here in Malaysia for quite some time now and here almost every kid starting from age 14/15 does a part time when ever they can (especially in Kuala Lumpur). I see few reasons, developing and developed countries does have a very very competitive market and everything here is for money, and there's a saying goes that "There's no free lunch", and people also have succumbed into that lifestyle...... and as a result earning becomes a compulsory issue from the small age. And also due to the competition and heavy commercialization the opportunities also tends to be on the higher side, when I first came here it gave me a shock that school children using the latest mobiles that even a company director cant afford in SL, and that's because they got opportunities to make money-- mostly part time, you ask from a kid what he/she wants to do in school holidays most likely you'll get an answer "Hoping to do some part-time and buy my next phone... etc", another thing that I've seen here is that even if you are an IT graduate people are quite happy to take up a job in another field just for the time being...(which personally I don't like...) In Sri lanka, with contrast to other countries commercialization still in infancy although it is growing rapidly, so opportunities are less, and the other most important factor is our family bonding, our parents are quite happy to nourish us until even we finish our University, just imagine how many times your parents might have scolded you "You only need to study, other things I will take care!!"(I've heard it like million times he..he..). And also unlike other countries Sri Lanka youth tend to wait until the perfect job comes along I guess!! (Is this good or Bad??? I don't know, depends on the person's vision) So guess that helped at least a bit for your project!!! [/QUOTE]
