Sasbadi Annual Report 2017

OUR CORE COMPETENCIES SASBADI HOLDINGS BERHAD (1022660-T) 20 NURTURING SKILLS Education isn’t just about academic performance; it’s also very much about life skills. Our children today need to acquire 21st century skills to ensure their future success. They need to be creative, to think critically, to communicate well and to collaborate with others. Sasbadi firmly believes one thing that is pivotal to the development of these crucial skills is experiential learning. As such, we set up a division as early as 2005 to focus on developing educational tools and learning platforms that would promote hands-on learning. The educational tools we carry, like those of LEGO Education, and the platforms we have established together with the Government, like the National Robotics Competition (“NRC”) and FIRST LEGO League (“FLL”) Malaysia, are part of our mission to facilitate 21st century skills-learning for students. In 2016, we expanded into providing education services through Little Botz, our learning centre where children can take practical lessons in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (“STEM”) in an experiential classroom. We are determined to become the leading provider of learning solutions that nurture 21st century and STEM skills for all Malaysian students so that they will be equipped to be globally competitive.
