1
Now new jobs are being created but many young people are still being left out of both work and education.
2
Right, economists track this through the neat raid.
3
Young people not in employment, educate or training.
4
And so let's break down some of the key figures we have here.
5
Now according to ILL estimates around one in five young people in Asia and the Pacific are neat.
6
The risk is even higher for young women who are more likely to be outside both work and learning.
7
and for the economy this is a major pool of untapped potential
8
when young people are not earning learning
9
or gaining experience countries lose future workers innovators and consumers
10
so reducing need rates it's not only a social priority it is also part of building a stronger more productive
11
and more resilient economy right and while the media has highlighted the diversity
12
and why availability of courses nowadays so it's clear
13
that young people rarely become needs overnight now many factors are involved
14
and it's a whole process
15
and for many it starts with a difficult transition from school to work repeated setbacks financial pressure
16
or a growing loss of direction
17
and our next report looks at how young people can gradually slip out of both employment
18
and education and why early support matters.
19
Trust for work, leaving early and returning late,
20
this young man appears employed,
21
but in reality he has been unemployed for nearly six months,
22
drifting through uncertain days.
23
Not because opportunities are lacking,
24
but because he seems to have lost the meaning of striving.
25
During that break, I didn't tell anyone.
26
I told my parents I was still working.
27
Every day, I would take my motorbike and bring my laptop,
28
go out to a cafe and stay there until late before going home home.
29
The longer I stayed unemployed,
30
the more I lost direction,
31
the more discouraged I became.
32
And it became even harder to find a job." Finding a job is difficult,
33
yet more young people are leaving education or training early.
34
This young man entered the workforce to gain independence,
35
but after months of unsuccessful job hunting,
36
he returned to his hometown.
37
For personal and family reasons,
38
I had to stop my studies.
39
I had to take on short-term jobs like ride hailing,
40
helping at eateries or manual work.
41
They only last a week or two before I return home
42
and think about whether to study again or choose a career path.
43
Many young people, despite having education,
44
health and youth on their side,
45
are losing the drive to move forward.
46
Without continuously updating themselves with skills for the digital age,
47
many may face burnout.
48
Equally important is the ability to take care of mental well-being,
49
build resilience and recover from stress and fatigue.
50
Right, you've heard from these individual stories,
51
but behind these is a wider regional challenge.
52
Across Asia, many young people remain outside employment, education
53
or training even as economies continue to grow and new forms of work emerge.
54
The question is why this gap persists and how governments and businesses can help young people move into stable, decent jobs.
55
Our reporter, Đức Đoàn, discussed this with Park Sinh Huan,
56
director of the ILO country office for Vietnam.
57
First of all, thank you very much for joining our interview today.
58
In many countries, the number of needs remain high despite economic development.
59
So from ILO's perspective, what are the key structural factors driving this mismatch between education and employment?
60
While our economies show resilience and growth,
61
many young people are still being left behind.
62
This paradox has four root causes.
63
First, limited access to career guidance,
64
Internships and practical experience makes it harder for young people to prepare for work.
65
Second, while educational attainment is rising,
66
many economists are not transforming past enough to create the high-skilled jobs that graduates expect.
67
Third, it is not just a lack of jobs,
68
but a lack of decent jobs.
69
Finally, we cannot talk about needs without addressing the gender barriers.
70
In the Asia Pacific region in 2025,
71
more than two out of three youth needs are women.
72
How is the rise of informal work and the gig economy in Asia affecting young people's transition into stable employment?
73
And does it risk expanding the need population?
74
We are seeing a trend toward the culturalization of labor,
75
where young people shifting from traditional wage employment into temporary paid jobs.
76
In Southeast Asia, insecure contracts of under 12 months now affect more than half of young adult workers.
77
Platform-based work such as food delivery,
78
riding, hiring often means no employment contract, no social security contributions.
79
When young people start out in informal or unstable jobs,
80
they have fewer chances to build skills,
81
earn well or access to social protection.
82
That's why the ILO strongly supports moving from informal to formal work.
83
So what concrete steps should governments
84
and businesses take to better integrate needs use into the labor market and ensure more inclusive economic growth?
85
Obama should strengthen school-to-work transitions by aligning education and training with market needs and by expanding career guidance and internships, work-based learning.
86
At the same time, the private sector plays a critical role.
87
Business can expand quality internships and work-based learning to help young people transition into jobs.
88
Close collaboration between governments, employers and training institutions is essential to design responsive skills programs and anticipate labor market needs,
89
particularly through sector-based partnerships such as establishing sector skills bodies that are aligning training with industry demand.
90
Once again, thank you very much for joining our interview.
91
You're welcome.
92
Thank you for having me.

Engaging with the video titled "A hidden youth employment crisis | Vietnam Today" presents valuable opportunities for learners seeking to enhance their speaking skills. As the speaker discusses the pressing issue of young people facing unemployment and disengagement from education, learners can immerse themselves in real-world contexts. This exposure not only develops vocabulary but also fosters awareness of significant social issues. By practicing with this video, you can:

  • Reflect on the narrative and emotions conveyed, which helps in expressing complex ideas.

  • Use the speaking context as a springboard for discussions, enhancing conversational skills.

Utilizing a shadowing app or a shadowing site can augment your learning experience, allowing you to mimic pronunciation and speech patterns effectively.

Grammar & Expressions in Context

As you listen to the speaker, pay attention to the following grammatical structures and expressions that are indicative of effective communication:

  • “Many young people are still being left out”: This passive construction emphasizes the ongoing nature of the issue.
  • “It is a major pool of untapped potential”: The usage of “pool of potential” illustrates a metaphor that underscores the importance of this demographic group.
  • “Transition from school to work”: This phrase highlights the process and challenges young people face. It is valuable for discussing similar transitions in various contexts.

Common Pronunciation Traps

English learners may struggle with certain words and pronunciations found in the transcript. Focus on the following tricky areas:

  • “Unemployment”: This word can be hard to pronounce clearly due to its length and syllable stress. Practice breaking it down into smaller parts: un-em-ploy-ment.
  • “Resilience”: The subtle sounds in this word require practice. Ensure you emphasize the 'zil' part correctly.
  • “Education”: A common error is the pronunciation of the middle syllable. It should sound like ‘do’ not ‘duh’ – pay attention to its rhythm.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
