Malaysia crowned 2023 World Robot Olympiad champion in Panama

MoE team displays exceptional performance, taking home four gold, two silver medals in various categories

8:59 AM MYT

 

KUALA LUMPUR – Malaysia’s Education Ministry (MoE) team emerged as the overall champion in the 2023 World Robot Olympiad (WRO) International final, which was held in Panama City, Panama, from November 7 to 9.

The MoE said in a statement that Malaysia was victorious in its 11th attempt out of 19 participations in the WRO, and the championship was won when the national team bagged four gold and two silver medals out of a total of seven categories contested.

The statement also said the Malaysian team led by Deputy Director-General of Education (Professionalism Development Sector), Shafruddin Ali Hussin, was represented by 49 participants from primary and secondary schools, including students of the Teachers Education Institute.

“Malaysia also sent a MoE official, who was on duty as a tournament referee, to the competition, which was attended by 1,200 participants from 80 countries,” according to the statement.

Meanwhile, Shafruddin, in the same statement, said he was proud of the achievement, which he described as the best since Malaysia’s participation in the WRO.

“Good teamwork, commitment, and support from all parties, including Sasbadi Holdings Bhd, which is a strategic partner of the Education Ministry. It is an important ingredient for the national team to overcome fierce competition from other teams,” he said.

Meanwhile, Shafruddin said the MoE always strives to stimulate students’ interest in the fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics, including through interesting and entertaining robotic programmes. – November 11, 2023
