Education officials green-lighted a massive cash injection of RM1.15 million to fix up the crumbling Kubang Pasu MARA Junior Science College in Jitra. Chairman Datuk Dr Asyraf Wajdi Dusuki announced the hefty funding package will tackle everything from broken dormitories to outdated science labs. The bulk of the money goes toward buying brand new STEM learning gear worth RM800,000 while fixing up academic buildings and sports facilities. Workers will also waterproof leaky roofs and upgrade walkways plus recreational zones around campus. The repair blitz comes after angry parents flooded social media demanding action.

Dormitory upgrades will eat up another RM180,000 as maintenance crews fix ceilings, toilets, water systems and pest problems plaguing student housing. Officials earmarked RM50,000 for a new computer server system while electrical repairs get RM70,000 from the budget pot. Teachers will benefit from RM50,000 worth of improvements to their living quarters on campus grounds. Dusuki personally toured the troubled school after parents bombarded him with complaints about power outages and busted facilities.

The education boss ordered school administrators to speed up all repair work for the sake of students and staff comfort. Senior MARA officials plan to keep a close eye on contractors to make sure every ringgit gets spent properly. The funding represents one of the biggest single investments in the struggling institution's recent history.
