KENINGAU: Deputy Minister of Science, Technology and Innovation Datuk Arthur Joseph Kurup urged early childhood education institutions such as Kemas Kindergarten to participate in helping to nurture young children’s interests in Science, Technology and Innovation (STI).

He said this effort is to support the will of the country which aims to be among the top 20 countries in the world in terms of economy, people’s well-being and creativity and innovation by 2050.

“To go in that direction, we need big changes, readiness and development of human capital, spending, culture and big spirit,” he said when officiating the Pensiangan Parliament’s Kemas Kindergarten Appreciation Ceremony here on Friday.
