In a heartwarming effort to uplift the living standards of the local community, the Communications Ministry has brought forth a significant initiative in Kampung Orang Asli Kelinsing, Sepang, Selangor. The establishment of a National Information Dissemination Centre (NADI) in this adopted village is poised to revolutionize the lives of its residents.
Undersecretary Maizatusima Judi from the Communications Ministry’s Development Division expressed enthusiasm about how the introduction of the NADI facility would not only enhance the potential and well-being of the villagers but also bridge them closer to technology. This move aims to empower them with access to various digital resources that can ultimately lead to an improvement in their overall quality of life.
Kampung Kelingsing stands as a beacon for progress as it becomes the sole MADANI Adopted Village equipped with NADI, setting it apart as a pioneering example for other villages across Malaysia. This transformative initiative reflects the unwavering commitment of Communication Minister Fahmi Fadzil and ministry officials like Datuk Mohamad Fauzi Md Isa towards providing essential infrastructure that fosters learning, particularly in gig and digital economies.
The NADI center, managed by the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC), is on track for its grand launch this Saturday. A series of engaging activities have been meticulously planned for this auspicious occasion, including communal work sessions (‘gotong-royong’), an exhibition highlighting Orang Asli handicrafts and culture, and an online safety awareness program conducted by MCMC experts.
Beyond just establishing NADI, efforts have been made by the ministry to revitalize cultural spaces within Kampung Kelingsing. This includes reconstruction work on a cultural hall and canteen at designated sites earmarked for cultural activities. The enhancement of infrastructure extends further with road paving projects and drainage system upgrades aimed at mitigating previous issues related to flooding in the area.
These infrastructural enhancements are not just about immediate benefits but also hold promise for future tourism prospects in Kampung Kelingsing. By attracting more visitors to experience local culture firsthand, there’s optimism that this village will flourish economically through promoting indigenous handicrafts, aligning perfectly with preparations for Visit Malaysia Year 2026.
The MADANI Adopted Village initiative spearheaded by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim under Budget 2024 embodies a holistic approach towards enhancing access to fundamental facilities through coordinated governmental efforts. It symbolizes collective progress towards creating sustainable livelihoods and fostering inclusive growth across communities nationwide.
In conclusion, initiatives like NADI serve as powerful catalysts for positive change within marginalized communities, showcasing how dedicated government interventions can pave the way for brighter futures. The story unfolding in Kampung Kelingsing stands as a testament to what can be achieved when collaboration meets compassion in driving societal development forward.
