Editor,Allow me to respond to a story appeared in The New Times, June, 23, under the headline "Johnny come lately on education”I totally agree with the writer that this is the age of the entrepreneur and there is no doubt about it. Those who doubt it need to read that piece.The onus is on those with the power to shape policy. Free thinking should be structurally encouraged and supported. It is the way forward in your aptly named "age of the entrepreneur”.Also, another piece which  appeared in The New Times, April 7, titled "critical thinking imperative for Rwandans” was equally great. It also talked about the need to restructure our education system, which is indeed a critical issue.Jean Karemera
