Editorial

Dear Readers,

Assalamu Alaikum. We hope you are well, by the mercy of Allah. The issue of the youth wave will reach you when the world sees an increase in the number of people addicted to screens. The number of poor people is also rising. Teaching jobs are becoming less and less attractive to fresh graduates. The low-paid teachers, who are logically least motivated and passionate about their profession, make less effort to enliven their classes. Low pay in teaching jobs fails to attract high-calibre graduates to the profession. Poor performance in the classrooms on the part of educators for years prompts pupils with poor financial backgrounds to stay glued to their unattractive schooling. Thus, disenchanted schoolchildren logically stop going to school. Due to the failure to create humane and moral graduates, apathy about schooling also grows. So some students go to seminaries or faith-based schools like madrassahs, hoping for a combination of general education and Islamic education. Diametrically, some students leave faith-based madrassahs, fearing that their madrassahs may not groom them properly to compete with their school peers. So we have picked up the dropout issue and made it into the cover story of Youth Wave for the month.

Dear Subscribers,

Eid Mubarak to you all at the end of month-long fasting, which is being popular among some people who are suffering from one of the non-communicable diseases like obesity. To lose extra kilos, intermittent fasting is becoming popular among health-conscious people across the country, irrespective of their cultural identity.
We hope to return to you next month with another issue.
