KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 4 - Greatech Technology Berhad has launched its 2026 Digital Library Transformative Program, aiming to modernize 10 new schools, while also celebrating the grand opening of the 2025 Greatech Digital Library at SJKC Li Hwa, marking the completion of 10 schools under the 2025 program.
The initiative is part of the company's efforts to empower students and educators with essential digital literacy skills, with a total commitment of RM2 million this year, bringing the cumulative contribution to RM4.5 million.
The program is expected to have a positive impact on the Malaysian education sector, particularly in Penang, where the Chief Minister, YAB Tuan Chow Kon Yeow, has expressed support for the initiative. The modernization of schools is likely to enhance the digital literacy of over 14,000 students and educators by the end of 2026, contributing to the development of a more tech-savvy workforce in the country.
This, in turn, may attract more investments in the technology sector, boosting Malaysia's economy.
Details of the program reveal that it focuses on accelerating tech-readiness and cultivating a mindset of innovation among students. By transforming traditional spaces into digital hubs, Greatech aims to ensure that students are not just consumers of technology, but also the future creators, engineers, and leaders of tomorrow's digital economy. The company has committed to completing the modernization of a total of 23 schools by the end of 2026, with the support of public-private partnerships.
The outlook for the program appears positive, with the support of the Penang state government and the involvement of 10 outstanding schools. As the program progresses, it is likely to have a significant impact on the education sector in Malaysia, particularly in terms of enhancing digital literacy and promoting innovation among students.
Details on the specific outcomes and achievements of the program are expected to be released in the coming months, as the initiative continues to roll out across the state.
