SHENZHEN, Sept 28 — Selangor today marked another significant milestone in its mission to shore up the Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) ecosystem, by signing a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with global digital maintenance company ChinaFix.
The MOU was signed by the Selangor Technical Skills Development Centre (STDC), APR Electronic Sdn Bhd, dan ChinaFix (Shenzhen Xinxunwei Technology Co Ltd), and aims to open new doors to strategic cooperation including technology transfer, electronic repairs, technical training, and human capital development.
This deal also makes STDC the main technology and facility transfer centre in Malaysia, with the goal of empowering Selangor’s position as a regional TVET hub, especially for Southeast Asian markets like Thailand, Cambodia, Indonesia and Myanmar.
This cooperation is set to springboard investment potential and expand access to sophisticated technology in the electronic and digital repair field.
The MOU signing ceremony was the highlight of the Selangor delegation’s working visit to ChinaFix’s headquarters in Shenzhen.
The delegation toured the firm’s latest technology facilities, including for electric vehicle (EV) repair and printed circuit boards, which are widely used in modern industries.
