Urgent need for creativity

Everyone agrees the post-pandemic world is going to be changed. So, we know many things we do and we need would be obsolete. Many people may lose jobs and some businesses may not survive the new challenges.

We only feel frustrated at this kind of future staring us in the face. But, we don't carefully think that society will need new technology and ideas to meet the new needs of life. That means, we may see a lot of opportunities. As we have learned, necessity is the mother of invention.

Therefore, we need to do research at any level to develop newer ideas and explore opportunities. Our schools, universities, research organisations and the government agencies may arrange contests or undertake a project for talent hunt and receive varieties of ideas from the youth.
