THE Hong Leong Foundation awarded scholarships worth RM1.39mil to 32 students to further their studies at institutions of higher learning in the country.

Hong Leong Foundation executive director Quek Sue Yian said: “The workplace will undergo tremendous upheaval in the next decades with the coming of robotics and Artificial Intelligence.”“Students need to understand that the future is constantly evolving and while we are still giving out a lot of scholarships for traditional degrees such as accountancy, law, economics and medicine, I want them to remember that regardless of the type of degree chosen, being nimble and adaptable to change are the most valuable things one can take away,” she said.
