KUALA LUMPUR, May 29 (Bernama) -- The French and German international schools in Kuala Lumpur have jointly launched the Eurocampus KL, marking a milestone that further strengthens European educational collaboration and ties with Malaysia.
Located in Mont Kiara, Eurocampus KL - one of only six such campuses globally - brings together the Lycée Français de Kuala Lumpur (LFKL) and the Deutsche Schule Kuala Lumpur (DSKL), which operate side by side on the same grounds while maintaining their respective curricula and identities.
French Ambassador to Malaysia Axel Cruau, in his remarks at the launch ceremony, said the Eurocampus reflects the strength of the Franco-German partnership and its significance for Malaysia.

He said the campus meets the growing demand for quality international education and reflects a shared ambition to nurture talent across ASEAN.
He described the Eurocampus as the start of a renewed educational vision between France, Germany and Malaysia.
'The Eurocampus is a living example of what we can achieve through shared trust and vision. It serves our communities, contributes to the building of Europe, and adds value here in Malaysia,' he said.
Cruau said the campus is the outcome of a collective commitment, including both school boards and the embassies, and expressed his gratitude to the Malaysian government for its support.
German Ambassador to Malaysia Dr Peter Blomeyer called the launch 'a truly good morning,' noting it had taken four years of ideas, discussions and goodwill to bring the vision to life.
'Our German and French children can now attend school together here. And more than just learning, they are encountering one another - this is how understanding is built,' he said.
