Tamil schools in Kuala Lumpur, Selangor, and Penang bagged two gold, four silver, and six bronze awards at an international innovation festival. Another impressive achievement by our young minds!

The Indonesian Young Scientists Association (IYSA) in collaboration with Universitas Negeri Yogyakarta hosted the World Youth Invention and Innovation Award (WYIIA) from 16 July to 21 August.

This event aims to give them the opportunity to show off their work and projects, as well as to improve the quality and types of innovative projects that have contributed to the world’s development.

Based on a Makkal Osai report, the students were trained for about three months, according to trainers R. Shanmuganathan and Surendran Gobalakrishnan.
