according to a clear action plan and a time-bound schedule.

opportunities within the state, eliminating the need for them to travel to
other states or remote locations. He emphasized that expanding higher education
opportunities within the state is essential, as well as strengthening the
quality education environment in universities and higher educational
institutions. He directed officials to advance ongoing work in the field of
higher education in a timely manner, while keeping the needs of the youth in
