Over the past few years, RSSC has changed the lives through the different initiatives and of which some came the company’s innovative idea of teaching the less fortunate how to fish instead of providing them with the fish. The RSSC Youth Entreprenuership Support Programme (YES) is a good example of that, where the company’s entrepreneurship competition gives the winning contestant winning capital to kick start their businesses, thus opening more career opportunities especially for the youth.
