5,000 Johor B40 students to receive Yes 5G SIM packs

In a recent initiative led by Raja Permaisuri Agong Raja Zarith Sofiah, 5,000 B40 students in Johor will receive Yes 5G prepaid SIM packs featuring 50GB of complimentary internet data. This contribution of RM100,000 was made by YTL Communications Sdn Bhd, in partnership with the Raja Zarith Sofiah Foundation of Johor and the Johor education department.

The initiative aims to bridge the digital divide and ensure that home-based teaching and learning can continue smoothly, particularly in light of recent haze affecting the country.

Each SIM pack will provide high-speed internet access to assist students in accessing digital educational materials and participating in lessons from home. YTL Communications CEO Wing K Lee presented the SIM packs to YRZSNJ CEO Hishammuddin Abdul Rahim. Hishammuddin emphasized that the contribution will help B40 families with limited internet access and facilitate smoother home-based learning.

Wing K Lee expressed hope that the distribution of free SIM packs would enable students in Johor to keep up with their studies. The ceremony was attended by YTL Communications deputy CEO Jacob Yeoh, the head of marketing Chay Wan Nee, and YRZSNJ corporate communications manager Dawson Yeang.
