Bernama - EPU receives award for smart school projects in four Asean countries

KUALA LUMPUR, TUES: The Economic Planning Unit in the Prime Minister’s Department has received the South-South Innovation Award for its smart schools project in rural areas in Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar and Vietnam.

The award was received by EPU director-general Tan Sri Sulaiman Mahbob at the United Nations headquarters in New York last Tuesday during the Global South-South Development Expo 2008 in conjunction with the Fifth United Nations Day for South-South Cooperation.

An EPU statement here says that the project was part of Malaysia’s contribution under the initiative for Asean integration to help bring those countries into the mainstream development.
