RAWANG, 9 July 2026 – In support of educational development, Berjaya Cares Foundation (“BCF”), the charitable arm of Berjaya Corporation Berhad (“BCorp”), has contributed RM100,000 to SJK(C) Bukit Tangga to support the construction of a new two-storey building.
This contribution will help the school meet the growing demand and provide a more conducive environment for teaching and learning, for both teachers and students.

Representatives from BCF presented the mock cheque to Dato’ Lee Kai Weng, Chairman of the Board of Management of SJK(C) Bukit Tangga, at the school. The handover was witnessed by Ms Wong Oli Lee, Principal of SJK(C) Bukit Tangga, and other school officials.

Commenting on the contribution, Tan Sri Dato’ Seri Vincent Tan Chee Yioun, Chairman of BCF, said, “I believe that education has the power to change lives and is the key to uplifting communities out of poverty. Through this contribution, we aim to make quality education more accessible and to ensure students have equal opportunities to realise their full potential.”

Since SJK(C) Bukit Tangga’s establishment in 2011, the school has experienced increasing student enrolment, resulting in a shortage of classrooms and educational facilities. The new building will house seven dedicated rooms for Counselling, Music, Health, Design and Technology, Prayer, Visual Arts, Education and Meeting, as well as additional restroom facilities for students and teachers.

“On behalf of the board, teachers and students, we are sincerely grateful for BCF’s generous contribution towards our new project. The funding will enable us to enhance our learning infrastructure, creating a more conducive environment for teaching and learning, benefiting both our students and teachers,” said Dato’ Lee Kai Weng.

In addition to this contribution, BCF has been actively supporting community development initiatives across Malaysia, particularly in education aid to underprivileged students and providing essential in-kind support to school students experiencing financial difficulties and humanitarian assistance efforts.

Under the JVA, ABSB and Trusmax , will jointly undertake the development of the High-Performance Green Rubber Tyre Production Base on a parcel of land measuring about 67.9 acres at Bukit Tagar Selangor which will comprise 16 purpose-built industrial and support facilities with a total construction area exceeding 62.5 acres.

Upon full commissioning, the plant is expected to achieve an annual production capacity of 1.2 million Truck and Bus Radial (TBR) tyres and 5 million Passenger Car Radial (PCR) tyres, positioning Malaysia as a strategic manufacturing and export hub within Wanli Tire’s global production network.

The project is expected to generate more than 1,000 employment opportunities for Malaysians while supporting talent development through workforce training and skills enhancement programmes. In addition, the investment is anticipated to contribute positively to technology transfer, industrial development, export growth and the strengthening of Malaysia’s manufacturing ecosystem.

Mr. Cao Xiandong, Chairman of Wanli Tire and Deputy General Manager of Guangzhou Industrial Investment Holding Group said, “Partnering with Berjaya Group fills us with confidence and expectation for our Malaysia manufacturing base. From initial talks to the signing, we have received strong support from parties in both China and Malaysia throughout the process, which encourages us and reinforces our long-term commitment to rooting in Malaysia and pursuing shared prosperity. Cross-border cooperation thrives on mutual growth; industrial synergy hinges on shared benefits. Looking ahead, we will continue to support Wanli Tire in deepening local operations and jointly build a future‑ready, industry-leading “flagship plant.” Let us stand side by side, seize the opportunities of the era, and make every tire that rolls out from here to the world a friendly messenger carrying the quality of China’s smart manufacturing and the bond of China-Malaysia friendship.”
