Yayasan Undang Johol Launches Education Fund To Boost Educational Development

SEREMBAN, Dec 6 (Bernama) -- The Yayasan Undang Johol Education Fund has become a key driver of educational development in Luak Johol, Negeri Sembilan, particularly in assisting students from low-income families.

Undang Luak Johol Datuk Johan Pahlawan Lela Perkasa Setiawan Datuk Muhammad Abdullah said the establishment of the fund would strengthen the foundation’s capacity to provide more structured and effective support for students at all levels, including primary, secondary and those pursuing higher education.

He said the fund was created to assist students from eligible B40 and M40 families, as well as individuals with special needs, in various areas of education, including those enrolled in tahfiz studies and religious school streams.

“We hope that efforts to enhance and improve the quality of education among the people of Luak Johol can be implemented effectively and bring real benefits to the target groups,” he told reporters after officiating the launch of the fund here last night.

He said a Strategic Education Committee for the 2024–2040 period had also been established as part of efforts to shape a more holistic Yayasan Undang Johol Education Policy.

Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Aminuddin Harun, who was also present at the event, said that the state government fully supports the foundation’s efforts in addressing education-related issues in the state.

He said with cooperation from various parties and strategic partners, the state government is confident that such initiatives will help students develop their potential and pursue higher education, whether locally or abroad.
