There is a lot of ways of governments could encourage people to do lifelong learning initiatives. Maybe it could start from school. In Indonesia, especially, we already have 12 years mandatory of going to school, which is great. But the problems when it comes to this problem that you mentioned in the questions are what they are doing after the school was over. for some of the people maybe going to university to extend their study to learn something that they want to learn at university but some of them probably going to work or even there is some people that aren’t finished the 12 years of mandatory going to school. So I think government needs to provide the schools and need to provide also the people, The people, the society with the great education levels and they also need to pay teachers in a good way because the conditions of Indonesian teachers are very set and I think the teacher need to have a raise in their salary so every people that participated in education level would happy and would continue to learning even after the school was over. So it’s not only stop when they finish the school but it keep continue until he dies and we die.

There are a lot of ways governments could encourage people to participate in lifelong learning initiatives. Maybe it could start from school. In Indonesia, especially, we already have 12 years of mandatory schooling, which is great. But the problem when it comes to this issue is what people do after school is over. For some, it may involve going to university to further their studies and learn what they want to learn, but some may go to work, and there are also people who haven't completed the 12 years of mandatory schooling. So I think the government needs to provide schools and also support the people and society with high-quality education. They also need to pay teachers adequately because the conditions of Indonesian teachers are very poor, and I think teachers need a raise in their salary. This way, everyone involved in education will be happy and will continue learning even after school is over. It should not stop when they finish school; it should continue throughout their lives.
