Masari urged parents to encourage their female daughters to acquire vocational training to secure their future and be self reliant.

According to him, as future mothers, the girl-child should be trained to have skills that will reduce over dependence on their husbands.

“If you train a woman, she can maintain the family and thus reduce family conflicts in the society” he said
