FBS, a prominent global broker, has taken a significant step towards breaking educational barriers for indigenous children in Peninsular Malaysia.
The company is sponsoring the 2024 academic year syllabus for six preschools in remote areas, collaborating with SUKA Society and supporting the Empowered2Teach program.
This initiative aims to provide teaching resources and improve access to quality education for indigenous children who currently lack school opportunities.
FBS Cares: Helping communities in need
In a collaborative effort to address the educational challenges faced by indigenous children, FBS has teamed up with SUKA Society for the Empowered2Teach program.
The sponsorship focuses on providing teaching resources for six preschools in Slim River, Gopeng, Tapah, Gua Musang, and Kuala Rompin.
These materials target holistic development, enhancing language skills, numeracy, motor skills, and the emotional well-being of young learners.
According to a report by Jabatan Kemajuan Orang Asli (JAKOA), at least 7,000 indigenous children in Peninsular Malaysia lack access to school education.
FBS’s initiative aligns with its commitment to improving access to quality education, addressing a critical need in remote villages.
Aizzat Arfa, FBS Representative in Malaysia, expressed the company’s commitment to the collaboration, stating, “We at FBS are delighted to continue our collaboration with SUKA Society and contribute to the Empowered2Teach program.
Not only does this project align with our brand’s mission to improve access to quality education, but it also positively impacts local communities in need.”

The Empowered2Teach program, led by SUKA Society, focuses on dismantling barriers to education for indigenous children in remote villages.
The collaborative effort between FBS and SUKA Society signifies a shared commitment to making a lasting impact on the lives of Orang Asli children.
The sponsorship of the preschool syllabus for six schools is expected to create a more solid foundation for these young learners, preparing them for formal primary education.
Anderson Selvasegaram, Executive Director of SUKA Society, highlighted the significance of this collaboration, stating, “We are thrilled to join forces with FBS in our mission to empower Orang Asli children through education.
Their sponsorship of the preschool syllabus for six schools in Peninsular Malaysia is a testament to their commitment to making a lasting difference in the lives of these young learners.”
The partnership between FBS and SUKA Society signifies a joint effort towards community empowerment through education.
By combining resources and expertise, both organisations aim to pave the way for a brighter future for Orang Asli children in Malaysia.
