Young Jementah talents claim national robotics title
SEGAMAT: Four primary school pupils from Jementah emerged as national champions in a robotics programming contest, showcasing their promising talents. Jementah assemblyman Ng Kor Sim said the win was made possible with the strategic support given for the Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematic (STEM) education. The students, competing in two pairs, secured first and second place at the National Robotics League (NRL) 2025, held at Paradigm Mall, Johor Baru, from May 31 to June 1. First prize went to Tan Hong Jun of SJKC Jementah 1 and Vince Lee Voo Hee of SJKC Jabi, while Yew Chen Xu (SJKC Jementah 1) and Kayden Yeo Vv Jay (SJKC Jabi) came in second. All four, aged between 10 and 12, were first-time competitors and products of Ng's grassroots coding programme, launched in 2023 to introduce digital literacy and robotics to young students in her rural constituency. "These kids are proof that talent is not confined to the big cities," said Ng. Ng's office subsidised RM50 per student monthly for lessons, with additional RM30 support from education tech firm Zeniustech, which also co-organised the competition. Each team was required to programme autonomous robots capable of tracing lines, navigating obstacles, and executing complex turns, - a task designed to test coding fluency, logical reasoning, and problem-solving skills. The winning team walked away with RM1,000 in prize money, while the runners-up earned RM500. The event drew over 500 teams and 460 participants nationwide across 14 categories, with RM35,000 in prizes up for grabs. International backers included South Korean robotics company Alux.
