A NEW portal known as SJK(T) CONNECT will officially launch this weekend to serve as a comprehensive database for Tamil primary schools nationwide, Makkal Osai reported.

As the country’s first centralised directory for Tamil education, the platform consolidates key data from all 528 schools spanning 11 states and 122 parliamentary constituencies.

Developed and maintained by Tamil Foundation Malaysia in partnership with key educational bodies, the platform provides a single source of truth for community stakeholders.

The platform’s official launch will take place at SJK(T) Thamboosamy Pillai in Sentul.

> The daily also reported that a casual meet-up between former Indian police officers blossomed into an annual tradition now entering its ninth year.

Former policeman Nanthagopal Singaravelu, who served in the force 41 years ago, said the annual reunion was an event everyone eagerly anticipated.

“Honouring fallen colleagues, sharing old memories and staying connected give these gatherings deep personal meaning,” he said.
