Abstract
For investment in infrastructure to succeed, it should involve the State, employers and civil society working in co-operation to reach their common goals in HRD. This is referred to as "joining-up" of social institutions interacting and working together to reach their common goals. Complex social problems require multi-faceted policy solutions across government departments and private sectors, along with a sophisticated and up-to-date management system. Only in the joined-up way will the country's broad HRD problems be effectively eliminated.-
