KOTA KINABALU (June 30): Kota Kinabalu Member of Parliament cum Deputy Minister of Plantation and Commodities, Datuk Chan Foong Hin, has allocated over RM100,000 this year to reward 367 high-achieving students who excelled in the 2024 Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) examination. This marks the second consecutive year the Kota Kinabalu Parliamentary Office has hosted the 'Anugerah Kecemerlangan SPM MADANI' awards ceremony, which celebrates academic excellence and encourages students to continue striving for success. The ceremony took place on Saturday at SJKC Chung Hwa Likas. Students who achieved between 6As and 11As received cash awards of RM250 to RM300 each. Among the recipients, 113 students scored 9As or above. Special awards were also presented for Best Male Student, Best Female Student, and Best Performing School. Notably, both the top male and female students were from Tshung Tsin Secondary School: Soh Yim Qin scored 10A+, while Mohammad Arif Mohammad Adam achieved 9A+ and 1A. He reaffirmed that quality education is a right for every student, regardless of race, religion, or socioeconomic status. He also underscored the MADANI Government's commitment to ensuring equal access to education that can truly change lives and uplift communities. 'As Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has emphasized, quality education is the foundation of a MADANI society. We must cultivate a generation that is not only knowledgeable but also morally grounded, in order to build an inclusive and competitive nation,' he said. 'As a member of the MADANI administration, I fully support the Prime Minister's vision. We are committed to ensuring that no student is left behind — whether they come from B40 families, rural areas, or face physical and mental challenges.' Chan also welcomed the MADANI government's policy guaranteeing placement in the matriculation programme for all students who scored 10As and above in the 2024 SPM examination and applied for admission — regardless of race or background. He noted that this policy, introduced last year, reflects the government's commitment to fairness and equal opportunity in education. He added that the Kota Kinabalu Parliamentary Office will continue to work closely with the Sabah Education Department (PPD) and local schools to improve education infrastructure, provide support for at-risk students, and encourage greater involvement from the community and private sector in shaping the future of education. Last year, Chan allocated RM55,000 to reward 205 students in Kota Kinabalu who achieved excellent results in the 2023 SPM examination.
