Launching and Closing Celebration of the Paitan District Level Kaamatan Festival 2026

YBhg. Datuk Hassan Mahali, Permanent Secretary of the Sabah Ministry of Education, Science, Technology and Innovation (KPSTI) attended the Closing Ceremony of the 2026 Paitan District Level Kaamatan Festival which was officiated by the Sabah Minister of Education, Science, Technology and Innovation, YB Datuk James Ratib, at the Datuk James Ratib Hall, Paitan.

Organizing this celebration not only serves as a platform to preserve and elevate the cultural heritage of the local community, but also strengthens friendships and the spirit of unity among the multi-racial community in this district.

In conjunction with the program, KPSTI Sabah opened an exhibition booth themed on STEM and TVET to provide exposure to the community on technological developments, innovation, and educational and technical training opportunities that are increasingly relevant in today's digital era.

Visitors also had the opportunity to witness technology and robotics demonstrations and receive live explanations from officers and instructors involved. This initiative aims to increase awareness and interest among the community, especially students and youth, in the fields of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) and Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET).

Apart from that, this program was also graced with the participation of departments, agencies and strategic partners as well as the collaboration of KPSTI Sabah, including the Sabah State Library (PNS), the Human Resources Development Department (JPSM), the Sabah Creative Economy and Innovation Centre (SCENIC), the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) and several other agencies who also showcased various initiatives, services and development opportunities for the local community.

KPSTI Sabah is committed to continuing to expand education and awareness programs related to STEM and TVET throughout the state to produce knowledgeable, skilled and competitive human capital in line with the aspirations of Sabah Maju Jaya.
