Rooted in Sarawak. Guided by global standards. Partnering to create lasting impact in Malaysian communities.
“That makes us the first state in the world to implement this programme in pre-school.”

Our Impact in Malaysia
Where our mission begins — and continues.
KIDS Bits & Bytes
Malaysia’s first structured computer science and AI curriculum for preschool-age children, developed by Scott J. Wong and Andrea Wong with PKRS. This initiative equips young learners with foundational coding and computational thinking skills through an interactive, age-appropriate curriculum — giving every child, regardless of background, access to the skills that define the digital economy.
PKRS is an International Partner of Code.org — a platform serving 107 million students across 180+ countries. The curriculum is aligned with the International CSTA Standards, the globally recognised benchmark for quality CS education. Children advance through verified competency levels — not activity completion alone — ensuring real, measurable progress.
This work is currently delivered in government preschools across Sarawak, Malaysia, with over 7,500 children reached to date.

Digital Technologies Seniors Programme (DTSP)
The Digital Technologies Seniors Programme (DTSP) provides free digital literacy training for senior citizens in Sarawak. Developed by Scott J. Wong and Andrea Wong with PKRS, in collaboration with Chai Ching Yi and Sueh Ing of Swinburne University Sarawak, the DTSP equips older Malaysians with practical digital skills: device use, online safety, communication tools, and confidence in navigating the digital environment.
Malaysia’s senior population faces a pronounced risk of digital exclusion. The DTSP addresses this directly — not through passive instruction, but through structured, peer-supported learning that respects the experience and dignity of its participants. Swinburne University Sarawak is acknowledged as a valued collaborator in initiative design and delivery.
Partner with us to expand digital access for Malaysian seniors.
ChildSafe Malaysia
ChildSafe Malaysia is a teacher and community training programme that raises awareness of child sexual abuse and equips educators with the knowledge and tools to protect the children in their care. This work is delivered in preschools and kindergartens across Sarawak, and aligns with priorities set by Malaysia’s Ministry of Education for early childhood safeguarding.
The need is urgent. Research from Childlight Global Child Safety Institute estimates that 1 in 10 children in East Asia and the Pacific have experienced sexual abuse. Globally, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) finds that 1 in 4 girls and 1 in 13 boys are affected. ChildSafe Malaysia trains educators to recognise risk, respond appropriately, and foster safer environments — before harm occurs.

Nourish Malaysia — Community Nutrition & Education Support
PKRS partnered with Nourish Malaysia, a Malaysian NGO whose mission is “more than just feeding” — breaking the cycle of poverty through sustained education support. Together, PKRS and Nourish Malaysia support SK Damansara Damai 2, a government primary school serving the PPR housing community of Damansara Damai, Kuala Lumpur.
The school enrols 1,041 students, including 98 pre-schoolers, 897 regular students, and 46 children with special needs. PKRS and Nourish Malaysia provide monthly dry food supplies, education materials, and sensory and developmental tools. Five low-income families receive monthly raw food support, linked to their children’s continued school attendance and academic progress. Special attention is given to children living with autism, blindness, cerebral palsy, and hydrocephaly.
During the Covid-19 pandemic (May 2021), this support was extended to the broader PPR housing community, providing groceries and essential items to residents facing acute hardship.
