FWD Insurance Sponsors 40 Digital Smartboards For Schools Under PPD Keramat
KUALA LUMPUR, July 25 (Bernama) -- FWD Insurance Berhad (FWD Insurance) has announced a RM400,000 sponsorship to deliver 40 digital smartboards to 35 schools under the Keramat District Education Office (PPD). In a statement, FWD Insurance said the initiative, which aligns with the Ministry of Education's (MOE) digitalisation agenda, aims to equip students with critical financial knowledge and digital learning tools from an early age. The official handover was led by FWD Insurance Chief Executive Officer Mak See Sen, together with Deputy District Education Officer (Curriculum Sector), Mohd Helmy Abdul Najib. 'The smartboard distribution aligns with Thrusts 4 and 6 of MOE Digital Education Policy, which aim to empower strategic partners to equip schools with appropriate infrastructure for the implementation of digital learning. 'The policy also supports Keramat PPD's Bring Your Own Device to School (BYODS) Programme, which has been in place since 2021,' the statement said. To date, the smartboards have already been installed across the participating schools, and students are actively using them in their learning, said FWD Insurance. 'These devices serve as key tools to promote the integration of digital technology and artificial intelligence (AI) into the classroom, further underscoring FWD Insurance's dedication to making financial education accessible to all,' it said. Meanwhile, Mak said it is FWD Insurance's vision to change the way people feel about insurance and to shape children's mindsets toward planning for their financial future. 'We are committed to equipping primary and secondary school students with essential financial literacy skills that will stay with them throughout their lives,' he said.
