TAIPING, 26 July 2025 – The National Audit Department (JAN) continues to strengthen community relations through the organisation of the Santuni MADANI Programme 2025 at Sekolah Menengah Sains Raja Tun Azlan Shah (SERATAS), Taman Tasik Taiping.

The programme featured various contents, including education, community well-being and environmental sustainability.

As a knowledge-sharing platform, one of the main contents was an Executive Talk titled ‘Amanah Untuk Negara: Peranan Saya, Peranan Anda’ by Auditor General Dato’ Seri Wan Suraya Wan Mohd Radzi.

The session emphasised the importance of integrity as the core of administration. Also, a talk on Artificial Intelligence (AI) was held to open up new perspectives on the importance of technology in the present and future, particularly in the education sector.

Besides the knowledge-sharing session, Dato’ Seri Wan Suraya Wan Mohd Radzi also presented contributions for physical projects, including upgrading the volleyball court, replacing the school hall’s air conditioning system, and providing stone benches to enhance the comfort of the learning environment.

She also officiated the presentation of the Auditor General Cup volleyball tournament at the school. The programme was further extended via community gotong-royong activities in Taman Ulu Tupai, focussing on cleanliness and pollution issues of Sungai Tupai, thereby stressing on the importance of environmental conservation.

According to her, the organisation of this programme not only provides physical development benefits, but also fosters the value of shared responsibility between the government and the community.

"The government can provide assistance, but the environmental sustainability depends on the community’s awareness to jointly care for and maintain it," she elaborated.

In line with the initiative to ensure that the benefits of the programme are more comprehensive, JAN also collaborated with Yayasan Perak via the implementation of the Sayangi Rumahku Programme.

This effort focuses on home repair assistance for those in need, involving four houses in Kampung Pokok Assam and Kampung Tupai with an allocation of RM20,000 for each unit.

This measure aims to improve the quality of life and safety of the selected families' homes.

The organisation of this programme is realised through strategic cooperation between various parties, including the Ministry of Education Malaysia (KPM), Ministry of Energy Transition and Water Transformation (PETRA), Ministry of Rural and Regional Development (KKDW), Perak State Secretariat, Taiping Municipal Council, and Larut, Matang and Selama District Office.

For the closing, the programme concluded with a dinner reception at the Dewan Bunga Raya, Changkat Jering, bringing together representatives of implementing agencies, strategic partners, and local leaders.

Also present were State Secretary Dato’ Ahmad Suaidi Abdul Rahim, Larut, Matang and Selama District Officer Mohd Nasrul Menhat, Taiping Municipal Council President Khairul Amir Mohamad Zubir, Yayasan Perak General Manager Dr. Nasreen Khanum Nawab Zadah Khan, and SERATAS Principal Rabiatul Adawiah Pathil.
