#unemployment #factors #unemployement #steps
It is evident that unemployment has become a growing problem in the recent past.
According to
 my ,experience the
education
system
 and
sri
lankan
culture
 contribute to the problem. I will be discussing my point of view in the following essay. The
Sri
Lankan
education
system
 has not identified the requirements in the current
job
 market. For ,example our universities produce a vast number of art graduates when there are only limited opportunities available in the industry. If we consider secondary
education
, it does not provide key skills to its pupils to survive in society. The secondary
education
system
 should include subjects like personal accounting, income tax, career path identification and building, which would help the student to be more successful in their life.
Due to
 these deficiencies in the
education
system
, the
education
system
 provides people who are unfit for the current vacancies, which has resulted in a high unemployment rate.
Sri
Lankan
culture
 nurtures the thought that a person should study hard and find a high-paying
job
. The
culture
 suppresses the idea of being self-employed, which would be a starting point

 a large organization. For ,example Microsoft was born in a garage, but now it is a dominating player in the information technology field. If Bill Gates was born in
Sri
 Lanka he would have been working as a software engineer for some company and Microsoft would not have been born.
This
 thinking pattern suppresses the formation of the business and increases the number of
job
 seekers, that have resulted in problems. To sum ,up what we discussed,
Sri
Lankan
culture
 motivates people to become
job
 seekers rather than  opportunity creators and the
education
system
 has failed to satisfy the need for modern industries which has resulted in high unemployment rates. The
Sri
Lankan
 government should consider
this
 situation and it should take rapid action to remedy the situation since the actions take time to bear fruit.
