Nation Building School was the supporting partner of 2nd Kuala Lumpur International Youth Discourse (#KLIYD2017) for the second time!

We had a star-studded line-up with Prime Minister Dato' Seri Najib Razak, Defence Minister Dato' Seri Hishamuddin Hussein, Youth & Sports Minister Khairy Jamaluddin & Menteri Besar Perak Dato' Seri Zambry speaking at 
KLIYD!

It was held on Sunday 3rd December 2017 in Putra World Trade Centre (PWTC) in Kuala Lumpur.


The 2nd KLIYD was themed "Embracing Total Security: Why It Matters". As our global populations grows to 9 billion by 2050, we are straining our world's limited resources. Our activities are changing the climate and destroying our biodiversity. As obesity is on the rise in developed countries, 1 billion around the world are malnourished. With the advent of the digital revolution, more than half of the current jobs will be lost to automation. We are more likely to be threatened by cyberattacks on our digital devices than from being hit from a bullet. These issues are nonconventional threats. Total security goes beyond traditional threats (e.g. conflicts, terrorism) and include nontraditional ones such as food security, climate security and cybersecurity. KLIYD intends to explore security holistically to prepare youths for the future.

Our speakers included:
  1. YAB Dato’ Sri Mohd Najib Tun Abdul Razak (Prime Minister of Malaysia)
  2. YB Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Tun Hussein (Minister of Defence & Minister of Special Functions)
  3. YB Khairy Jamaluddin (Minister of Youth & Sports)
  4. YAB Dato' Seri DiRaja Dr Zambry Abd Kadir (Chief Minister of Perak)
  5. Ambassador Dr Dino Patti Djalal (former Indonesian ambassador to US, diplomat, author, academic)
  6. Dr Shashi Jayakumar (Senior Fellow, Head of Centre of Excellence for National Security, S. Rajaratnam School of International Studies (RSIS))
  7. Dr Hezri Adnan (Panel Member, United Nations International Resource Panel)
  8. Alex Ellison (Education Consultant, College Planner)
  9. Eddin Khoo (Founder & Director, Pusaka)

It was a wide-ranging forum on topics such as ASEAN security, fighting extremism, sustainability and climate change, job security and race relations. 

Our leadership team moderated two of the sessions. Principal Nafis Nazri moderated the session with Prof Dr Shashi Jayakumar and Dr Dino Patti Djalal on extremism amongst youth. Our Managing Principal Marques moderated the session with The Honourable YB Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Hussein, Minister of Defence.


As a Community Partner, our leadership team prepared a series of articles on 2nd KLIYD 2017:
  1. Pixie Cigar (Principal): Our youths today are facing unprecedented threats, says defence minister (2 December 2017)
  2. Pixie Cigar (Principal): It is not a matter of if, but when a terror attack happens, says Dr. Shashi Jayakumar at KLIYD 2017 (4 Dec 2017)
  3. Leyna Kareem (Guru): Dr. Dino Patti Djalal on Extremism amongst the Youth (4 December 2017)
