Abstract
Sustainable development is a development strategy that manages the finances, physical assets, natural environment and human resources to improve the wealth and qulity of life for a long term period. In economic context, sustainable development has been appreciated to be crucial and applicable for many countries, and Malaysia is no exception. One of the National Green Technology Policy Strategic thrusts is to intensify human capital development in sustainable development. The motivation should be the ability to supply green technology initiatives for the demand of the local and global markets, creation of opportunities and contributing to the growth of the national economy. Today, the knowledge of TVET is a precious key indicator of the effort for sustainable growth to be maintained in the present and future situations. The expanding knowledge and new technologies at the workplace demanded for the new types of skills in green technologies and TVET has to be responsive to take up its share of the challenge. Hence, as a TVET implementer, Malaysian polytechnics should take the initiative to be responsible in giving public awareness towards sustainable development through short and long term sustainable integration development programs in order to produce competitive and excellent human resources.
