Extraordinary Teachers of Anugerah Guru Inspirasi McDonald’s: Passion for Quality Education in Rural Communities

Teachers play a pivotal role in a child’s education journey. They are the ones who lay the building blocks of our nation and shape the future leaders of our country. Teachers have the opportunity to be role models who help students make sense of the world by exposing them to constructive discussions and help them discover their highest potential by exploring their talent and limitless creativity. However, many still do not have the privilege to have access to quality education.

‘Buka Puasa’ with Alpro Pharmacy’s Vegetable-Rich Murtabak Recipe
