From around the globe, it's theCUBE with coverage of KubeCon and CloudNativeCon Europe 2021 virtual. Brought to you by Red Hat, the CloudNative Computing Foundation and Ecosystem Partners. Well, welcome back to theCUBE's coverage of KubeCon and CloudNativeCon 2021 virtual. I'm John Furrier, host of theCUBE. We've got two great guests here. Always great to talk to the KubeCon co-chairs and we have Stephen Augustus, head of open source at Cisco and also the KubeCon co-chair. Great to have you back. And Jasmine James, manager and engineering effectiveness at Twitter at KubeCon co-chair. She's new on the job, so we're not going to grill her too hard, but she's excited to share her perspective. Jasmine and Stephen, great to see you. Thanks for coming on theCUBE. Thanks for having us. Thank you. So obviously the co-chairs, you guys see everything up front. Jasmine, you're going to learn that this is a really kind of key fun position because you got multiple hats you got to wear. You got to put a great program together. You got to entertain and surprise and delight the attendees and also get the right trends, pick everything right. And kind of keep that harmonious vibe going at CNCF and KubeCon as ad. So it's a hard job. So I got to ask you right out of the gate, what are the top trends that you guys have selected and are pushing forward this year that we're seeing evolve and unfold here at KubeCon? For sure, yeah. So I'm excited to see, and I would say that some of the top trends for cloud native right now are just changes in the ecosystem. How we think about different use cases for cloud native technology. So you'll see lots of talk about new architectures being introduced into cloud native technologies or things like WebAssembly, WebAssembly wasm use cases. And again, I think I mention this every time, but what are the customer use cases? Actually really thinking about how all of these building blocks connect and create a cohesive story. So I think a lot of it is enduring and will always be part, my favorite thing to see is pretty much always maintainer and user stories. But yeah, but architectures wasm and security, security is a huge focus. And it's nice to see it come to the forefront as we talk about having these like the security day as well as all of the talk around supply chain security. It's been a really, really, really big event, I will say. Yeah. Well, great job from last year, we're virtual again, but we're back in real world's coming back in the fall. So hopefully in North America will be in person. Jasmine, you're new to the job. Tell us a little bit about you, introduce yourself to the community and tell more about who you are and why you're so excited to be the co-chair with Steven. Yeah, absolutely. So I'm Jasmine James. I've been in the industry for the past five or six years, previously at Delta Airlines, now at Twitter. As a part of my job at Delta, we did a huge drive on adopting Kubernetes. So a lot of those experiences I was very, very blessed to be a part of in making the adoption and really the cultural shift easy for developers during my time there. I'm really excited to experience like cloud native from the co-chair perspective because historically I've been like on the consumer side going to talks, taking all of those best practices, stealing everything I could and to bring it back into my job so make everyone's lives easier. So it's really, really great to see all of the fantastic ideas that are being presented, all of the growth and maturity within the cloud native world. Similar to Steven, I'm super excited to hear about the security stuff, especially as it relates to making it easy for developers to shift left on security versus it being such an afterthought and making it something that you don't really have to think about. Developer experience is huge for me, which is why I took the job at Twitter six months ago. So I'm really excited to see what I can learn from the other co-chairs and to bring it back to my day to day. Yeah, Twitter has been very active and open source and everyone knows that and it's a great job to see you land there. You know, one of the interesting trends is this year also you besides security is get off. But the one that I think is relevant your background so fresh is the end user contributions and involvement has been really exploding on the scene. It's always been there. And we've covered, you know, Envoy with Lyft, but now enterprises now mainstream enterprises have been kind of going to the open source well and bringing those goodies back to their camps and building out and bringing it back. So you're starting to see that flywheel developing. You've been on that side now here. Talk about that dynamic and how real that is and important and share some perspective of what's really going on around this explosion around more end user contribution more end user involvement. Absolutely. So I really think that a lot of industry like players are starting to see the importance of contributing back to open source because historically we've done a lot of taking, you know, utilizing these different components to drive the business logic and not really making an investment in the product itself. So it's really, really great to see large companies invest in open source even have whole teams dedicated to open source and how it's consumed internally. So I really think it's going to be a big win for the companies and for the open source community because I really am a big believer in like giving back and making sure that you should give back as much as you're taking and by making it easy for companies to do the right thing and then even highlighting it, you know, as a part of CNCF projects, it'll be a really, really great, just a drive for a great environment for everyone. So really excited to see that. Shesman, awesome stuff, great insight. Stephen, I want to just have you piggyback off that and comment on companies, enterprises that want to get more involved with the cloud native community from their respective experiences. You know, what's the playbook? Is there new on-ramps? Is there new things? Is there a best practice? What's your view? I mean, obviously everyone's growing and changing. Look at IT has changed. I mean, IT is evolving completely to cloud ops, SRE, GitOps, day two operations. It's pretty much standard now, but they need to learn and change. What's your take on this? Yeah, so I mean, I think to Jasmine's point and I'm not sure how much we've discussed my background in the past, but I actually came from the corporate IT background, the desktop help desk support, all of that stuff up into operations, DevOps, SRE production engineering. I was an SRE at a startup who used CoreOS technologies and started using Kubernetes back when Kubernetes was at one two, I think. And that was my first journey into cloud native and I became CoreOS as like only, you know, only customer to employee convert, right? So I'm very much big on that end user story and figuring out how to get people involved because that was my story as well. So I think that, you know, some of the work that we do or a lot of the work that we do in contributor strategy, the CNCF, SIG contributor strategy is all around thinking through, thinking through how to bring on new contributors to these, the various cloud native projects, right? So we've had chats with container, you know, container D and linker D and a bunch of other folks across the ecosystem as well as the kind of the maintainer circle session that we hold, which are kind of like they're private, you know, not recorded so maintainers can kind of get raw and talk about what they're feeling, whether it be around bolstering contributions or whether it'd be like managing burnout, right? Or thinking about how you talk through the values and the principles for your projects. So I think that, you know, part of that story is building for multiple use cases, right? You take Kubernetes, for example, right? So a Meredith chair for SIGPM over in Kubernetes. One of the sub-project owners for the enhancements sub-project, which involves basically like figuring out how we intake new enhancements to the community but as well as like what the end user cases or all of the use cases for that, right? How we make it easy to use the technology and how we make it more effective for people to have conversations about how they use technology, right? So I think it's kind of a continuing story and it's delightful to see all of the people getting involved in SIG contributor strategy because it means that they care about all the folks that are coming into their projects and making it a more welcoming and easier to contribute place. Yeah, that's great stuff. And one of the things you mentioned about IT and your background and the scale change from IT and just the operational change over is interesting.  And it's kind of a hybrid, right? So you're seeing essentially this new operational model at scale that's CloudOps. So you got hybrid, you got on-premise, you got cloud native and now soon to be multi-cloud. So new things come into play, architecture, coding and programmability. All these things are like projects now in CNCF and there's a lot of vendors and contributors. But as a company, the IT functions changing fast. So that's going to require more training and more involvement and yet open source is filling the void. If you look at some of the successes out there, it's interesting. Can you comment on the companies that are out there saying, hey, I know my IT department's going to be turning into essentially SRE operations or, you know, CloudOps at scale. How do they get there? How could they work with KubeCon and what's the key playbook? How would you answer that? Yeah, so I would say, you know, first off, the place to go is the 101 track. We specifically craft that 101 track to make sure that people who are new to CloudNative get a very cohesive story around what they're trying to get into, right? At any one time. So head to the 101 track, please head to the 101 track, hang out, check out the, definitely check out all of the keynotes. Again, the keynotes, we put a lot of work into making sure that these keynotes tell a very nice story about all of the technology and the amount of work that our presenters put into it as well is phenomenal. It's just, it's soft-notch. It's soft-notch every time. So those will always be my suggestions. Actually go to the keynotes and definitely check out the 101 track. Awesome, Jasmine, I got to get your take on this.  You know, you were at Delta doing some great Kubernetes work, but now it's going beyond Kubernetes. I was just talking with another participant in the ecosystem, KubeCon ecosystem, saying it's not just Kubernetes anymore, there's other systems that we're going to deploy our real-time metrics on and whatnot. So what's the story? What's the update? What do you see in the inside now? Now that you're on board and you're at a hyperscale or Twitter, what's your advice? What's your commentary to your old friends in the end user world? Yeah, it's not an easy task. I think that was you had mentioned about starting with the one-on-one is like super key. Like that's where you should start. There's so many great stories out there in previous KubeCon that have been told. I was listening to those stories and the great thing about our community is that it's authentic, right? We're telling like all of the ways we tripped up so we can prevent you from doing the same thing and having a easier path, which is really awesome. Another thing I would say is do not underestimate the cultural shift, right? There's so many tools and technologies out there, but there's also a cultural transformation that has to happen. You're shifting from traditional IT roles to really holistic, like so many different things are changing about the way infrastructure was interacted with the way developers are developing. So don't underestimate the cultural shift and make sure you're bringing everyone to the party because there's a lot of perspectives from the operations side, from the development side that need to be considered before you make this shift initially, so that way you can make sure you're approaching the problem in the right way. So those would be my recommendations. So speaking of cultural shifts, Steven, I know this is a big passion of yours is diversity in the ecosystem. I think with COVID we've seen probably in the past two years, a major cultural shift on the personnel involved, the people participating, still a lot more work to get done. Where are we on diversity in the ecosystem? How would you rate the progress and the overall achievements? I would say doing better, but never stop. What has happened in COVID, I think, if you look across companies, if you look across the opportunities that have opened up for people in general, there have been plenty of doors that have shut, right? And doors that have really made the assumption that you need to be physical or in person to do good work. And I think that by cloud native ecosystem, the work that the LF and CNTF do, and really the way that we interact in projects has kind of pushed towards this async first, this remote first work culture, right? So you see it in these large corporations that have had to change the travel policies because of COVID and really for someone who's coming off of being like a field engineer and solutions architect, right? The bread and butter is hopping on and off of a plane, shaking hands, going to dinner, doing the song and dance with customers. And for that model to functionally shift, right? Having conversations in different ways, right? And yeah, sometimes it's a lot of Zoom calls, right? Zoom calls, webinars, all of these things, but I think some of what has happened is, you take the release team, for example, the Kubernetes release team, this was our first cycle with a Nobarun who's our 121 release team lead is based in India, right? And that's the first time that we've had an APAC region release team lead and what that forced us to do, we were already working on it, but what that forced us to do was really focus on asynchronous communication. How can we get things done without having to have people in the room? And we were like, with Nobarun here, it either works or it doesn't. Like we're either gonna prove that what we've put in place works for asynchronous communication or it doesn't. And given that a project of this scale can operate, just fine, right? Just fine delivering a release with people all across the globe. It proves that we have a lot of flexibility in the way that we offer opportunities, both on the open source side as well as on the company side. Yeah, and I gotta say a KubeCon has always been global from day one. I was in Shanghai and I was in Hangzhou visiting Alibaba and who do I see in the lobby, the CNCF crew and I'm like, what are you guys doing here? Oh, we're talking cloud with Alibaba. So global is huge. You guys have nailed that. So congratulations and keep that going. Jasmine, your perspective is women in tech. I mean, you're seeing more and more focus and some great doors opening up. Still not enough. We've been covering this for a long time. Still the numbers are down, but we had a great conference recently at Stanford Women in Data Science. Amazing conference. A lot of power players coming in. Women in tech is evolving. What's your take on this? Still a lot more work to done.  Share your story. Yeah, you know, we have a long way to go. There's no question about it. I do think that there's a lot of great organizations, CNCFB and one of them really doing a great job at sharing networking opportunities, encouraging other women to contribute to open source and letting that be sort of the gateway into a tech career. My journey is starting as a systems engineer at Delta, working my way into leadership somehow. I'm not sure I ended up there, but really sort of shifting and being able to lift other women up has been like such a, so fortunate to be able to do that. Women who code being a mentor, things of that nature has been a great opportunity, but I do feel like the open source community has a long way to go to be a more welcoming place for women contributors. Things like code of conducts, that being very prevalent, making sure that it's not daunting and scary, going into GitHub and starting to create a PR out of fear of what someone might say about your contributions, instead of it being sort of an educational experience. So I think there's a lot of opportunities, but there's a lot of programs, networking opportunities out there, especially everyone being remote now that have presented themselves. So I'm very hopeful and the CNCF, like I said, is doing a great job at highlighting these women contributors that are making changes to CNCF projects and really making it something that is celebrated, which is really great. You know what I love, Steven, and we talked to us last time and the Clubhouse app has come online since we were last talking and it says all audio. So there's a lot of ideas and it's all open. So with asynchronous first, you have more access, but still context matters. So the language, so there's still more opportunities potentially to offend and or get it right. So this is now becoming a new cultural shift. You brought this up last time we chatted around the language, language is important. So I think this is something that we're keeping an eye on and trying to keep open dialogue around, it matters what you say, asynchronously or text. We all know that text moment where someone said, I didn't really mean that, but it was offensive or... It's like, but you said it. But you said it's there, it's like, there it is. Sherry, you're passionate about this here. This is super important, how we work. Yeah, so I, you mentioned Clubhouse and it's something that I don't like. So, you know, no offense to anyone who is behind creating new technology is for sure. But I think that Clubhouse from, you know, if you take platforms like that, let's, you know, let's generalize, you take platforms like that and you think about the unintentional exclusion that those platforms involve, right? You, if you think about folks with disabilities who are not necessarily able to hear a conversation, right? Or you don't provide opportunities to like caption your conversations, right? That either intentionally or unintentionally excludes a group of folks, right? So I've seen, I've seen cloud native, you know, I've seen cloud native things happen on Clubhouse, on Twitter spaces, I won't personally be involved in them until I know that it's a platform that is not exclusive. So I think that it's great that we're having new opportunities to engage with folks that are not necessarily, you know, you've got people who prefer the Slack and Discord vibe, you know, you've got people who prefer the text over phone calls, so to speak thing, right? You've got people who prefer phone calls.  They call it stages, Discord has stages, which is essentially Clubhouse. Stages, they have stages, okay, all right. So insert, you know, Clubhouse clone here. And, yeah, and that's- Cubehouse, we've got a Cubehouse, come on in, yeah. Cubehouse, Cubehouse, trivia. So you've got a great, you know, great ways to engage there for people who, you know, prefer that type of engagement. And something that is explicitly different from the, I'm on a Zoom call all day, kind of vibe. Enjoy yourselves, enjoy yourselves, try to make it as engaging as possible. Just realize what you may unintentionally be doing by creating a community that not everyone can be a part of. Yeah, unintentional consequences. I mean, this is key. Language matters to how you get involved, how you support it. I mean, accessibility, because I never thought about that if you can't listen. I mean, you can't, there's no content there. Yeah, yeah. And that is, you know, that is a huge, you know, that's a huge part of the cloud native community, right? Thinking through accessibility, internationalization, localization to make sure that our contributions are actually accessible, right? To folks who want to get involved and not just prioritizing, let's say the US, you know, the US are English-speaking part of the world, so. Awesome, Jasmine, what's your take? What can we do better in the world to make the diversity and inclusion not a conversation? Because when it's not a conversation, then it's solved. I mean, ultimately it's got a lot more work to do but you can't be exclusive. You got to be diverse, more output happens. What's your take on this? Yeah, I feel like it'll always be work to do in this space because there's so many groups of people, right, that we have to take an account for. I think that thinking through inclusion in the onset of, you know, whatever you're doing is the best way to get ahead of it. There's so many different components of it and you want to make sure that you're making a space for everyone. I also think that making sure that, you know, you have a pipeline of, you know, a network of people that represent, you know, a good subset of the world is going to be very key for shaping any program or any sort of project that anyone does in the future. But I do think it's something that we have to consistently keep at the forefront of our mind, always consider. It's great that it's in so many conversations right now. It really makes me happy, especially being a mom of an eight-year-old girl who's into computer science as well, that there'll be better opportunities and hopefully, you know, more prevalent opportunities and representation for her by the time she grows up. So really, really great. Get her coding early, as I always say. Jasmine, great to have you on, Steven, as well. Good to see you. Final question, what do you hope people walk away with this year from KubeCon? What's the final kind of objective? Jasmine, we'll start with you. Wow, final objective. I think that I would want people to walk away with a sense of community. I feel like the KubeCon CNCF world is a great place to get knowledge, but also an established sense of community, not stopping at just the conference and taking part of the community, giving back, contributing would be a great thing for people to walk away with. Awesome, Steven. I'm all about community as well. So I think that, you know, one of the fun things that we've been doing is just engaging in different ways than we have normally across the kind of the KubeCon boundaries, right? So you take CNCF Twitch, you take some of the things that I can't mention yet, but are coming out, you should see around and post KubeCon week. The way that we're engaging with people is changing and it's needed to change because of how the world is right now. So I hope that to reinforce the community point, my favorite part of any conference is the hallway track. And I think I mentioned this last time. And we're trying our best. We're trying our best to create it. We've had lots of great feedback about, you know, whether it be people playing among us on CNCF Twitch or hanging out on Slack to the early hours, you know, just chatting it up and our kind of like crafted hallway track. So I think that engage, engage, don't be afraid to say hello. I know that it's new and scary sometimes. And trust me, we've all, we've literally all been here.  We're all pretty friendly. We're all pretty friendly. And we know and understand that the only way to make this community survive and thrive is to bring on new contributors, is to get new perspectives and continue building awesome technology. So, so don't be afraid. I love it. You guys have a global, diverse and knowledgeable and open community. Congratulations. Jasmine, James, Steven and Gus co-chairs for KubeCon. Here on theCUBE, breaking it down. I'm John Furrier, your host. Thanks for watching.


You see about it. No, bro. You're about to know who you're gonna.  I'm gonna. I'm gonna have any reason bro.   Just take a guess Who the f*** is on Glidey's account bro? Barney2k? Hey, just a question. Who is this on Glidey account though? It's Glidey, man. That's cap. That's so cap.  Oh, hang on.  That is tragic. All right, all right, all right.  All right, and leave me Hey, case now might be a good time to tell you Oh lord have mercy I had an opportunity to play on a legend account and I went all out Glidey first legend current gen hit me up Say agent. Do you want to play on my account? I said, of course I do Why would I not want to? I did my video I just dropped experimenting with his build seeing what it was like to be a legend on 2k21 Since I had some extra time I'm playing the troll and this video has so many Elaborate twists and turns I could have never possibly predicted, but people's guard was low It's been a while since I've done a troll video. So it goes like this All right, I'm waiting on Swante's word Swante's gonna let me know when I'm gonna pull up to his side of the park Nobody knows I'm on this side of the park So the park doesn't fill up because if the park fills up is ruined and he just got in a squad with the guy I'm watching his stream back there on my laptop. Okay. He's there. He's there.  I gotta make sure he can't hear me I'm gonna turn on my effects right now. So this is what I sound like I'm gonna come over to them and so I think say he's gonna have a little reaction and He's gonna invite the guy to discord. Oh, he's right here. Okay, cool.  Hey, hey This is the first legend. Glidey. Are you in the stream? Play with me. Play with me case. Just sent me invite Okay, cool now. I'm in I just messes want a I said tell him my message you that I'm grabbing my mic and to join The discord. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. I'm gonna send him a Discord invite bro. Hold on. So if Glidey is awake, which I don't know if he is right now Cuz it's probably the morning right now in Australia Glidey could just be in chat and play around and be like, yeah, this is me Which would make it even more hilarious, but I don't know if he's awake right now Just join discord left top left top left Don't take that top left cuz that's where word text is gonna be okay so far. It looks like everything is going Well, okay, so I'm gonna be quiet the first couple games. I don't think case is streaming So there's nothing to record on my laptop, which is fine. It just makes things a little bit more simple Okay, I'm gonna play a decent game because we have to win this to get word text involved And we're not gonna get him frustrated without getting more text involved. These 12 videos are very hard to pull off It's one mistake. They identify you they stop reacting in the videos over. So there's no room for error Wow case shoot. Okay case is getting quiet and I don't know why anyone hear me. Hello Yes, I hear you. I don't know about this case. You don't know about this code. I'm rare. I'm a son of Glidey This is just a filler game because we need we need word text on Swante what the Okay, so I told swante to win this right now It takes one good takes one. Let's go Game so I'm relying on swante right now big time to troll to a level. I never seen him do before I can't speak if I speak right now.  I need swante to get case involved That's what he's trying to do. All right, cool. This is how Glidey plays cool Someone in the chat just said he might be letting somebody use the caliper gameplay. So the second I play my voice Folks is gonna know I'm trolling.  This is word text, right? Yes, perfect. Perfect. Perfect. All right. This is the one we got to make it happen this one. Oh What? Damn, I need him to miss but they're not guarding him.  I got it Vortex shows the worst court to get a game and what's wrong with that guy was at this point I realized that this is gonna be harder than I thought because for him to get mad we have to lose It doesn't matter how bad I play if we continue to win games He's not going to get frustrated and right now. We're playing against absolute buckets And that's not nothing a saboteur can help solve. So we need to up the competition. You know this. No Okay, just say you don't know me. That's good. That means he doesn't know I'm Australian He's from Australia Oh, why are you yelling at a little kid bro relax?  Okay I'm gonna severely throw now. I'm not even gonna try and make it look like you know what I'm saying And then I'm gonna turn my mic on after like two to three games court so alone It's so yeah that stage so the good thing about what we just did is that the people already in the stage Usually just play stage so they're gonna be better if we waited and then played a game a whole bunch of scrubs We just filter in hey gladi. I'm sorry for your hotspots. My bad, man Now that we're on the stage I fully expect to see better competition I fully expect to be losing these games and I fully expect some better reactions. We can't keep letting case Oh this trip Oh this is a good trip.  So I'll tell you get up there. Okay game time fellas. Let's break shots What I do best on god if you want to lose the system. The name is h. Don't miss I got excellent I swear I was not trying to make that this build is just Getting automatic. I swear. I'm trying to tell you automatic, right? I'm gonna just leave him. I apologize all the time I'm sagging.  There's just missing open. It is so sad, bro Oh gladi's like trash, bro.  Oh, this thing is going for that is their best player by far I got a I can just do the micro We need to lose we need to lose we might lose It seemed like everything that could go wrong was actively going wrong because no matter how hard I was trying We were still winning these games.    Let me get it bro. Why'd you mic in now? Hey, what's the game? I don't care, bro. This nigga my guard is daddy bugging game guys. It's good playing with you.   All right and leave me All right. Oh, he's back. Okay. Perfect. All right. Hopefully he doesn't realize vortex is back again Yo people in the chat might know who vortex is, huh? So that was an additional obstacle that I really didn't anticipate was chat both swante and case We're streaming and at any point if they couldn't come to the conclusion I was trolling their chat would let them know so throughout the games I actively looked at chat to see what chat was saying and swante stream I hadn't seen a couple people say it was agent, but just a couple people on cases stream So far so good. The niggas are all 99s. Perfect. They're good. That's perp. We're gonna lose this All right, that's gonna be a break very late. This is the game where I have to get him pissed off This is it if I choke this then I'm not a top tier troller anymore, man I just need to find a corner to go to bro. I'm like You don't get out of my That is crazy. Damn. All right. Yo case is good, bro He could get pissed if he lose back to back.  Then we can link. They're missing open. What the other team? You're supposed to be good try to give This is a suck, bro I don't care if he delayed or not Glide of your guarding nobody case just guard that bro I know but like Still first of all, bro, we should not be losing like this, bro Come here. No And I got a food I'ma give up the dog My god, it's one for five. Anyway, bro. Every possession we had it got done, bro.  What are you talking about what happened? I want to play good defense's possession because I need him to play another game with me I think that's the one where he's gonna lose his mind. Let's go all good All good, baby. All right, bro All Andy hits that okay I want us to get close one more good defense possession. I want to lose close. He gotta be strong. He gotta be strong Let's get a good defense Okay, bro, this I can't win with this chewing one person.  I just wrote in the chat. I said do relax. I'm delayed. Are you trolling? Am I trolling? What the hell he keep giving him the ball, bro You would think it would make a decent pass, right? Do you think I want to lose? All right, we in with vortex If he lose the third game, he's gonna lose his mind. It is my Responsibility to make sure he's miserable this game. You're glad he just wants a congratulation, bro Oh, thanks, man. I watched cloudy sell the game last game over there. Don't don't congratulate He's pretty tight. All right, agent. That's green. Oh, what the Oh Yo, what's wrong with this guy? Bro, no I literally stopped what I was doing to text vortex. Tell me you'll calm down You're talking a lot right now, bro Because if he couldn't pick up this multiple times, we played you already He's gonna know and on top of that when you're trolling you have to give him enough time To rage, but he can't if people is always on the mics if he's listening Oh, come on.

The 49th annual Sea Air Space Exposition was held April 7th through April 9th in National Harbor, Maryland. One Navy leader explained how he is helping to keep the Navy innovative and how the supply network gets based on benefit sailors. The picture we show here is what I would call the Naval Support Network. It's a network of system of systems throughout the Department of Defense showing the connectors between all kinds of logistics providers. A key focus area for NAVSEF that makes us different is we do really focus on quality of service. It underscores the importance of what the CNO calls the quality of work and quality of life and ensures that our war fighters have the materials, the tools, the training they need to be successful. The annual exposition brings military leaders and private sector defense companies together to network and build ideas. From the Defense Media Activity, I'm Petty Officer Ian Cotter.

The state at the east are the swearing and oath of allegiance of one three one one corps members but a stream to 2023 at the orientation camp in Cardinal plus TV news correspondent Habila Durfey filed in this report. The aim of establishing the one-year national mandatory youth service is to promote peace unity nationalism integration and spirit of patriotism across all regions of the country. The three-week orientation camp will expose corps members to various vigorous military training entrepreneurship programs to sustain them to be self-reliant after their service year. The governor who was represented by the state commissioner for human services and social development Harjah Hafsat Baba said government at all levels is ready to provide security measures to ensure safety of corps members. The NYS state coordinator Hassan Taurah also reaffirmed commitment toward security of corps members in the state while urging them to be security conscious and shun drug abuse.  Try to avoid all those negative tendencies like corruption, tribalism, religious extremism, violence and other immoral acts that have so much bedeviled our society that the government at all levels has put in place various security measures that will ensure your security and safety throughout the service year. I wish to also encourage you to take the orientation course very seriously, take advantage of all the camp activities that have been carefully planned to prepare you for the one rose task of nation building that will commence soon. Prepare to face the challenges ahead and be resolute to tackle the multifaceted problems confronting our dear country. Some of the youth corps members express joy come into the North for the first time and made the promise to put in their best in uplifting the state. I feel very happy. I'm grateful to God for the opportunity to serve in Karnasti. I actually got the letter from my youth service. I was a bit scared of like coming down to the North to come and serve but when I got here I got a very warm accommodation, very warm, the people here are very accommodating and I look forward to having a very great service year. It's actually my first time here so I think I want to enjoy the opportunity to associate with the people here and by grace I have a good time and also serve my country well. The NYSE deployed 1,311 corps members made up of 733 failures and 578 mills inducted to camp for the three-week training in Kanduna state.


Presenting Marcia Hunt and Marjorie Reynolds in Plightness on the Cavalcade of America sponsored by the DuPont Company, maker of better things for better living through chemistry. Better things that include DuPont nylon, DuPont cellophane, DuPont plastic. Later in this program, we will bring you the DuPont story of the week about the 101 interesting jobs that coated fabrics, products of chemical research are doing in the war. There is a sisterhood of flight nurses. But there is more danger, more hard work, more heart pain in what they do than glamour. Our play tonight has caught the danger and the heartache, the tension. The occasional smile or laugh that sparkles in a flight nurse's memory. Our stars are two of Hollywood's most charming young actresses, Marcia Hunt, who is one of the stars of the Metro Golden Mayor picture Music for Minions, and Marjorie Reynolds, who will soon be seen in the Paramount picture Bring on the Girl. DuPont presents Plightness with Marcia Hunter's hat and Marjorie Reynolds as seen on the DuPont Cavalcade. On a marriage trip near Lingayan Gulf, one of our most costly beach heads in the Philippines, a C-54 transport plane was heavily. It form other idling but ready for the flight crew knows how real is the danger that may bring jet fighters on a sudden raid over the field. Now at this moment, a flight surgeon stands with two flight nurses and a medic by a row of 20 sectors, each laden with its important burden. In each, a wounded American bounding the base hospital. The surgeon is a very tired major. What's your view, Thompson? I am, sir. And yours, Kedavsky? That's right, sir. Well, I'm sorry if I don't make too much sense, I'm tired. Tired? Who isn't? You'll both have your hand fall on this grip near for Guam. Guam, yes, sir. At least you won't have to do too much high altitude stuff, and that's good. There are at least a half a dozen tests, head and eyes, basically, Mr. Lott. I've seen this head. It'll require special care. We know our jobs by now, sir. Well, what's the matter with you? You don't put the edgy, too, aren't you? Well, she's all right, Major. It's just never mind. The justice is her last trip. Well? She got her application in to go back to regular army nursing. Skip it, skip it. We've got work to do. Where's our medic? Right here, Lieutenant. Stuck in hospital. Okay, Sergeant. Get the litter barers working. Okay, Lieutenant. Now, that man there, Sliceman, needs a combat fatigue case. Combat fatigue? Yeah. Our instructions were no nervous cases. We'll have our troubles enough. Those instructions were no... At base hospital in Guam, sir. Oh? Well, that was Guam. This is Lin Guy and Sliceman Gold. But, Major, you don't understand. He goes past. Right. Hey, Sergeant. Yes, sir. That's an abdominal, you've got there. Put him somewhere in the middle where we can get at him. Yes, ma'am. There comes a new flight crew. Hope they're good. Hey, I know that face. Oh, no, not again. What do you know, the fun-loving rover? Maybe. You're up there, Johnny. All the way. Pat, this is Johnny Johansson. Hello, Captain. What? Hey, Captain Johansson. That's right. I waited to lose, and I'm gonna get it. Pat, I haven't seen this guy since I was assured it's your safe. Oh, look at you. From hairlines to aircores. I think I like your bettering, Pat. When old home week is over, maybe your health will get our patients better. If you'll come with me, maybe you can check how we're loaded for the flight. Huh. You put the bug in hurry. For me, I guess. She wants to quit flight nurse service, not in riding her fort. I'll tell you about it later. I've got to get to work. You'll need to. See you when we get upstairs. We need soon, I hope. As soon as we can. Oh, that's my cue now. See you in here. Look here, this is Naby. Taking control, settle? Yup, get aboard. Well, I'll take it. Bye, Thompson. Good luck. Thank you, ma'am. Good luck. Good luck, ma'am. Stick with him, Major. Okay, Sergeant. I got up. Here we go, Pat. Here we go again. Right. Right. Yes, right here, sir. Are we flying yet? Not yet, Captain. You see, this is my first time in a plane. You can't tell me anything else. They can fly. A little fly, sir. Just take my word for it. Is it a military secret where we're going? Not to you. We're going to Glom. A hospital. Glom? Is that all I was there just last November? Well, it's log and going there twice. Yeah, but Glom. For my money, it's a fan smile. Quickly, a fan smile. Yes, Sergeant? How's my pal? Pleasant. Oh, the red-haired boy? Yeah. He ain't got a word for hours. Well, we'll take good care of him. Don't worry. How's it with you? I feel better just watching you. What's that? Your knitting needle? This will make you sleep. There. Thank you. Wake me up when we get home. That's right off of that mountain. Ah, yeah. Everything under control? Why not? I'm going forward for a second. I want to say hello to Johnny. Hello. I thought you said that one. Yes, but you don't know how glad I am to see Johnny. I'll be right back. I hope. There's a lot of work to be done. Hello, Johnny. Oh, hello, Dilligan. There you are. Take off these earphones. I can't stay up here long, Johnny.  Give them my compliments and tell them I think we're going to have a nice, tough ride. Are you kidding? No. Navigator reports there's picky weather up about four hours. Maybe it'll blow over. It's a dream, baby, but this won't blow over. Does that mean we'll have to get out of here? May? Just remember, Johnny, we've got some soldiers back there with head eye and chest room. It's close to say around 8,000. I hope. Hmm, looks like Pat and I'll be busy. See, what's the matter with your sidekick anyway? You gave me another one of those off-the-shoulder cracks a few minutes ago. You got a letter from a boyfriend. Oh. You know, one of those gear pads. I guess it was all a mistake, letter. Oh. Captain. Yeah? What is it, 11 o'clock?  Those are beddies. Beddies? Yeah. You got a captain back there telling me to start praying. I'll be praying myself. Come on, Johnny. Wow. Over here. What is it? I've got something for you. Jack Plain. Three of them. Oh, fine. How do I look at the corporell up there? We had a head wound. He was calling. Right. Hey, nurse. Right here, sir. You couldn't help hearing what she said about Jack Plain.  But I'll read cross markings. Not us. This was a war plane going in. We don't raid hospital markings going out. I don't think that would make any difference, anyway. Uh-oh. Here they come. Cross the thing. What do we do? I wouldn't know, sir. Let's take a picture. I'm up front. But take it easy. Are you ready? Yes. Can I help you? Yeah. About that sand pile? Yes. I take it all back. Sand pile or no sand pile. Right now I'd settle for anything. I see it to me. Whoa. I am missing. Wait a minute. See? See? What happened? I don't know. All of a sudden, they're gone. I'll go ask Johnny. I couldn't see. Here he comes now. Hey, Johnny. The gaff. What about them? Where'd they go? Oh, didn't you see? No. They ran into some friends and decided to stop and talk. They ran into some friends. Yeah, some hell-capped friends are there. About five of them. Oh, boy. Oh, I love those Navy pilots. Any hot coffee back in the tail? Hot coffee and phonetic, if it's true. Okay, thanks. Um, see that storm I told you about? Yes. It's an hour away. Long nights and pretty. The navigator tells me. How do you like that? He takes off those jabs and he's a cool of Christmas. Oh, no fooling past. Isn't Johnny some guy? Sure, I guess so. I guess he'll do. All right, so did. Huh? I said hi. All right, hi. Oh, you want to talk? What are you going to do with that needle? Just thought you'd like a little cocktail before the cabby, huh? Don't bother. I'm not hungry. How's it? How do you feel? Go ahead. Why don't you say it? How's your leg? What are you going to say? How's your leg? What are you going to say? How's your stump? Don't worry about your leg, soldier.  Well, you'd never know. You're sure. I ain't buying any of that. Oh, tough guy. Come on now. This can make you feel better. I feel fine. Me and my stump leave us alone. After this high school. Is that an order, Lieutenant? But it don't bother. I ain't taking any. You're out of your desk, Paul. Yeah, that pillow doesn't look safe. It'll do. Oh, I'm sorry. I dropped your letter. Oh, what? Would you like me to read it to you? Let me read it to you. It'll kill me. Don't even need to read it. I know it by heart. Would you like to? Dear days, you're welcome. Dear days. This is the hardest letter I've ever had to write.  Don't. But the truth is, our engagement's impossible. That's enough. See, you'd better let me... And yet, to the extent of that piece from the knee down, they cut off it. Remember me. Fine. You're talking too much. You're all in with a nice bit of writing. We usually wait weeks for a letter. You'll be able to fix things up. You'll be seeing this soon. Got a letter from a pal of mine in the same mail. He's married already. I guess he's got a right to be so good. He's getting a good ear pie for now. He'll be good for your pain. Not what I needed for. Hold still now. Think I'll get a declaration? The order with a busted heart, please? There. He'll be all right now for a while. Hey. Hey, know something? Hmm? It's a pleasure to be in the same plane with him. We're not only in the same plane, so are we. We're in the same boat. Now, Johnny wants to see you. Captain Hanson. Aren't you company enough for him? Oh, don't be that way. Pat, it's important. Well, what do you want? It's about the weather. If you had his job and the navigators, I'd got my hands full back here. You know he would ask you to come up for nothing. Has he been off the touch lately? Not that I don't understand. Let's get that to your mind. But you still have a job to do until we land in Guam. Well, I'll go talk to you, Hanson. Keep an eye open. I'll be right back. Do you want to see me, Captain? Yeah. You know it's getting heavier every second. Yes, you've got all the patience, Captain. We need to be more than that. The real weather we're flying in. If we weren't already four hours out, I'd say we should go back. Well, we can't do that. Don't get excited, Lieutenant. We're not going. Well, we are going to have to climb upstairs. Try and get above this stuff. Upstairs? How far? We're at 7,800 now. I don't know where the top of this is, but I'd like to try as high as 10 pounds. You can. We've got cases back there. Test and plan. I know. I know that's why I'm talking to you. So? So you've got plenty of oxygen in containers back there, haven't you? Yes. And you better get ready to give a lot of plasma to any guys who go into shock when we start going up. Captain, it's too dangerous. Listen, Lieutenant, if we go up, a couple of your patients may have a very tough time. I know that. But if we stay at this level, all of us will come down. Now, take your choice. And while you're thinking, take a look at that meter, the storm is driving us up right now every minute. Captain, hold it. In a wind like this, Lieutenant, you're lucky if you can hold onto your hat. All right. Get it, Lieutenant. Oh, good. Listen, Sergeant, get out all the oxygen bottles and have them ready for use. Are we going up above 8,000? With these test cases, we're over 8,000 now. When, Sergeant, you better keep those bottles last fast when they're not in use. It's going to get even bumpier. Okay, Lieutenant. Something's going around now. Here. Find out what it is and pass me down. Okay, Lieutenant. Half. Half, yes. The test case here, the Captain Burnham. Yes. I'm afraid he's going into shock. All right. We'll give him plasma. I'll get it. Don't hurry to ask. Oh, I hope he's the only one. True. But there's a point of doubt. Good lord, what was that? That was our medicine set. It's not right out of its place. For just a minute, I'll help you. No, we'll leave it after we leave it now. You've got to get to that truck here. Where's Huston? Right here, Lieutenant. Everything's fastened down. I want you to help me with plasma. Listen, you'll never be able to give plasma when she's bumping like this. Gosh, look at him. But you can't do it. Go for it and find out how long we're going to fly this high. That's just on some strikes. And now, Sergeant, let's start with that plasma. Hey, Johnny. Oh, hello. Do you have nothing to do in your department? He wants to know how long we're going to be this high. Oh, he wants to know. We've got one case of shock now. Well, you can tell her I don't know whether we're going to be able to stay at 100 feet, let alone 10,000. Strike is higher on number two than you can get. Do you hear that? Yes, I hear it. That means on top of everything else, one of our engines may come. So get back to your boys and keep busy when I get time to play for a TV show like you know. We're listening to Marcia Hunt and Marjorie Reynolds in FlightNet on the DuPont Cavalcade, sponsored by the DuPont Company of Wilmington, Delaware, maker of better things for better living through chemistry. Here is Act Two of FlightNet, starring Marcia Hunt as Pat and Marjorie Reynolds as Steve. Four hours away from the bitterly contested ground around Lingaian Gulf on Luzon in the Philippines, the C-54 transport plane is fighting its way to a suddenly whiplash Pacific storm laden with a fragile and cherished cargo. Twenty wounded American soldiers and Marines. But the four motors of the transport at the moment are laboring in vain to keep the plane on an even cost of $1.5 a week. I'm half that plasma getting more ready. I gotta say it, Luda, I wouldn't have believed it. You gotta stop. There's somebody calling back there. Here I go. Stop the plane. Hey, can you see the plasma? I can't. I gotta stop the plane. It's coming. Sit back. Sit back. What's the fight? The plasma. The nervous case. Is this in my hypo? Sure, he's gonna sleep. Put that fly out. Somebody please put that fly out. Tell me, sir. The job's gonna do the fly out. Coming through again. Get another shot ready. Shall I send the medic over? In case he's got it and this one is trying to throw himself around. I'll be okay. Go get the predator. Put that. Put that. What do you want? It's all right. Can't it do okay to poke? Boy, tell me. What happened to tell me? He'll be okay, too. Tell me. Look out, tell me. They're coming down. Look out. Steve, hurry up, will you? I am nice. What's the matter? What happened? Nothing. They're back to sleep. Don't he want to go to Guam, neither? They got me. They got Terry. Back in bed, flysman. Back in bed. Sergeant Hopkins. I knew it. Tell me, tell me. Tell me. I'll tell you. I'll tell you. Let's take it easy. That'll be ready soon. Here you are. What are you doing? Get that needle away. Let me go.  Okay, Sergeant. Let him go. I'll be able to do that. But, Luke, this guy's got to drive all this stuff. Tell me. Believe me. Let him down. Put that. Let go of my arm, will you? Listen, flysman. Terry needs your help. Terry? Sure. For anything for Terry. Yes, sir. Lookin' red. You've got to help him. You've got to help yourself. You know you've got malaria? Malaria? Ken? Yes.  Yeah. That's your funny. Well, that's malaria. If you'll be okay only for you to want Terry to catch your malaria, do you? Terry's my pal. So let me give you some of this medicine, huh?  Then Terry won't catch anything from you. Good. Okay. Hold it down, Hudson. Got him. There. No. Malaria, please. Are you optimistic? No, you're right, Pat. I think it's coming down. Well, I can use some of that. What a time we've had. How long it's been? Oh, less than an hour. There. I think I'll go up front and see how things are with John. Oh, not again. I'll be right back. No. Lieutenant. You want something? No. A mouthful dry. Oh, all right. I'll give you some water. Cheers. Next slowly.  I guess we're being scared at the moment, isn't it? Oh, well, the worst is over now. We'll get to Guam in just a little while, and then we'll have to do as best. But don't you get scared, do you? Me? Sure, I do. Pretty. All the time when the damps were coming at us and the weather was so rugged. I kept watching you. And you were fine.  And what I mean is, well, ever since I got in the army, even back home in training, I've been scared. I sure wish I could get over it, but I guess there's something wrong with me. Well, I know I'm nervous. You want to know a secret? We're all scared. But how are you in the fighting? Well, I feel some damps all right. Well, that's all that matters, so to say. As long as being afraid doesn't keep you from doing your job. I know. Uh-oh. My problems, Kyle's waking up. Right here, soldier. Oh, like, no kidding. I know. I know you don't want to go to Guam. Well, um, I was thinking. It might not be so bad if you're going to be there for a while. Well, don't worry, soldier. You won't be in Guam long enough to think about that. You mean we won't be staying there? Uh-uh, not long. You'll be sent to the states in the week after this. Well, now that's more like it. That's Johnny. I rode 100,000 miles with him on an airline back in the states. He's all right. See, you got an extra bobby pin, always talking around. Look at my hair. What? Hair? Why are you doing this? Stand this way a little, huh? Well, I'm doing. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.  It's been longer than I like to think. What are you doing away, too? You're supposed to be sleeping, soldier. Oh, I've been awake a long time. I, um, I was trying to get a chance to tell you. I'm sorry about cracking the door there with you a couple hours ago. You mean about that letter you got? Yeah. Oh, that's okay. I know how you felt. I got one of those letters, myself, a week ago. Yeah, I think you did. So much is said. You know, you're lucky. Lucky? Sure. You got a way to forget. With me, it was okay. So long as I was busy, you know, with the push of one guy in on the first day's fighting. But the edge of my own trouble. And I got it in the leg. You all right? But it feels funny. Like it's on my leg. I get to think of something about her again. I had it all to get out. I was going to go back home and sit in the front yard and spend the rest of my life feeling sorry for myself. Well, not now. Not now. What made you change your mind? You. Me? I've been lying here for a lifetime and those other guys. You say that guy's what? Well, he has practiced. You could do the same thing yourself. That's why you're lucky. You've had the practice. Now you can do it. You can keep busy all the time. Right here in these planes. And the thing is, you might have let your letter get to down. You've gone right back to your soft civilian life and done something crazy. Like I would do it. What makes you think I wouldn't? Of course, I got to say with me, it's a little tough and still. My leg. Excellent. But even then, I don't figure you for the kind of girl would have left that part. What makes you think it wouldn't? You? The way you've been working? Listen, Lieutenant.  Right out of the start. I'm going to have to change the dressing. Seems you can find a new leg too while you're at it. That'll be a little tough these days. Yeah, I know. There's a war on it. Look over there. These are the clouds. Warm. Yeah. Oh, that soldier's sand pile chair looks good to me right now. You better tell your Lieutenant Thompson to see that all our guys have sat down. I can come for you. We're going down. Okay, Johnny. And I'll send you tonight. Yeah. We're landing padded. Everybody's sat down. Austin's just checking it now. How about it, Sergeant? Oh, that's Lieutenant. And nearly down. Oh, boy, feel that. Johnny cuts it down like a feather. Austin. It moves. These two firsts. Him and him. Right at the hospital and fast. Okay, Luke. You can open up now. Right. Well, soldier, this is it. What do you say? A sand pile. Strictly a sand pile. Hello there. Anybody home? All present. Accounted for us, sir. How was the trip? Well, we flew through the air, but I wouldn't say it was the greatest of these. Now, it was a little weather at sea. Well, that's why we killed the sergeant to get those two cases out to hospital first. The test room. Right. By the way, what you two nurses is Thompson? Yes, sir. Oh, well, I've got your orders here to send you along through to Hawaii. You should be able to get a plane within a couple of hours if you want to leave that soon. A couple of hours? It might be a year of this stuff. I guess you can use them later. I've only been on seven months. You see, sir, this is Lieutenant Thompson's last flight with us. To resign. Resign? Oh, I must have things mixed up. I maybe knew you girls did resign. You've got things confused all right, sir. Oh, now, wait, Pat. I know you're tired. We all are, but that's no reason for you to fear. I'm tired. Why not? But we've got work to do. What are we waiting for? Hey, what about that resignation? I was never any good at writing. The whole thing was a typographical error. So I'll be ready to make the next tickling giant fail whenever you want me to go. Glad to hear everything. Sorry, guys. Just remember that I forgot something in Linda. Forgot something? Yeah. I forgot there's a war on.  When the pilot of the B-29 over Tokyo gives her the gun, he does it with a carburetor a lot bigger and more complex than the carburetor in your car. In the carburetor of the B-29 is a diaphragm that automatically corrects the flow of high octane gas, with air in the right amount. That diaphragm has to flex and change position, just the right amount in just the right way, every time the pilot touches his throttle. What's it made of? Metal? No. Claw. A fabric woven of DuPont nylon coated with DuPont chemical rubber, neoprene. That's typical of the jobs being done by coated fabric. Hidden away where you never see them and never think of them, and still accomplishing things no other materials can do as well. Mankind has been using fabric for centuries. Coating them, however, is a development of modern industrial chemistry. Coating a fabric gives it entirely new quality. Coated fabrics are made which reproduce the appearance of the finest leather for women's handbags and shoes. Or, with, for another example, offer you a better window shade material, like DuPont's Tanteen washable window shade cloth. Coated fabrics are used in 101 ways in war. DuPont nylon ponchos, sheltered tents, are coated white on one side and green on the other. So they'll be hard to see against snow or against the evergreens of the mountains. There are rain proof, mildew proof, termite proof, jungle hammock, and the Army and Navy raincoats and all-weather jackets that stand the cold weather of Greenland without cracking and the hot, damp climate of the tropics without getting sticky or gummy. When soldiers thawed rivers, they button inflated ladders of coated fabric like small air cushions inside their shirts to keep them afloat. Life belts are made of coated fabric, so are life rafts and the chemical containers that change seawater into fresh drinking water. Scientific research has two aims, to create new things and to improve old things, adding new and valuable quality to old materials. Here in the development of wartime coated fabric is a double example of what research does. Fabrics are an old friend. Several coatings developed by DuPont were unheard of, simply didn't exist only a few years ago. Add them together, fabric and coating, and you have an illustration of the value of research. DuPont research that brings you year after year, an ever-growing list of better things for better living through chemistry. During the month of March throughout America, the Red Cross will conduct its 1945 war fund campaign and is a salute to the great work of the Red Cross. We will present on the DuPont Cavalcade a very warm and sincere tribute, a play called Bernadine I Love You, a story of one's little known but tender and human services of the Red Cross. William Bendix will star in this home-away-from-home tale of a paratrooper's inarticulate love for his bride of only two weeks. Listen next week when we will present William Bendix in Bernadine I Love You on the DuPont Cavalcade. The music on tonight's DuPont Cavalcade was composed and conducted by Robert Ambruster. This evening's play was written by Charles Rabiner and Peter Lyon. This is Gain Whitman inviting you soon in next Monday to Bernadine I Love You starring William Bendix on the DuPont Cavalcade. Brought to you by E.I. DuPont Dinemores & Company of Wilmington, Delaware. This is the National Broadcasting Company.


The first lies that I'm perfect just the way I am. People that believe this aren't gonna grow in their faith because, look, I don't need to grow. I'm perfect just the way I am. I'm doing fine. But we need to acknowledge our flaws and our sins. Then we can actually begin to change. Line number two is that God could never use me. Sometimes we get caught up in listening to the lies of the enemy as opposed to God's voice.  But God says that he has given us his power and his presence so that we can make an impact for his kingdom. And the third lie is that I can do this on our own. I get caught up in this way too often thinking that I can live this life on my own. I can do it all on my own. But sometimes you need to humble yourself and ask for help. And that's where real growth begins in that humbling of ourself. Follow for more Christ-centered content and help support my ministry on Patreon.


From VOA Learning English, this is the Education Report. China will have a record number of graduates moving into the job market this summer. Seven million people will finish their studies and begin building a career. But China's economy is slowing down. Chances for jobs for many new graduates are not good. To make things harder for current job seekers, more than 200,000 who graduated last year are still looking for jobs. Huzheng Dou, an economist at the Beijing Institute of Technology, said only 30% of graduates can be employed immediately. The economist said the majority of students remain unemployed and looking for work. And it is not just the number of graduates that is making the job search difficult. After years of strong growth, China's economy is slowing. Chinese leaders say they are struggling to keep growth about 7%. But Huzheng Dou says a big problem is the structure of Chinese industry. He says there are many places in China where graduate students are needed but are not willing to go. Recently, Chinese Premier Li Keqiang called on companies to give more opportunities to new graduates. In response, some privately run enterprises have announced increases in their hiring of new graduates. Observers say the government could go even further by giving private companies tax incentives and funding to help make them more equal to state-owned enterprises. They also say the government could encourage new graduates to work in smaller cities away from China's coastal area by giving them payments or other benefits.
