You tackle unemployment problems with a Job fair & Career guidance [1] 
event, which in my opinion, the Ministry of Education chips in the 
organisation every year along with other major sponsors.

There is only ONE tech event in Mauritius of this "grandeur" as no other 
organization spends massively to run a 4-days tech event on a yearly 
basis. However, all these resources are wasted due to mis-management and 
improper planning.

I've offered my help on several occasions to the National Computer Board 
but their bureaucracy allows negotiation with only a Secretary or 
President of an organisation. That's a very diplomatic way to say "we do 
not want you in" :)

Well, anyway, I won't take leaves from work to help in. I'll just be 
around on Saturday to buy some "promotional" stuffs from the market and 
take pictures for my blog.
