| Sharp Enhancements for TAR College |
| |
In the wake of globalization, the world has been transformed into a borderless village where humans and technology complement one another in the pursuit of knowledge. Likewise, in education, technological equipment and facilities have become essential tools to assist the academia in the dissemination of information.
As a premier institution of higher learning, Tunku Abdul Rahman College (TAR College) has been keeping abreast with the latest technological advancements and also constantly upgrades its resources with modern teaching and learning facilities.
As such, the news of the contribution of 6 high performance projectors and 3 LCD televisions with a total market value of RM 98,000 by SHARP Trust Fund generated quite a buzz within the College community.
On 22 April 2008, delegates from SHARP Electronics (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd, led by its Managing Director, Mr Takashi Mikami were in the College to present the audio-visual equipment to TAR College. This contribution is part of SHARP’s Corporate Social Responsibility to the community. |

In his speech, Mikami-san spoke highly of the capability of the graduates produced by TAR College. “Today, TAR College graduates hold various middle management positions and are directly entrusted in ensuring the high quality of SHARP brands all over the world” he said enthusiastically pointing out that there are 21 TAR College alumni attached to Sharp Electronics.
Andre Tong, an alumni who was present at the event echoed Mr. Mikami’s stance when he said, “TAR College education that I received was very comprehensive and was instrumental in helping me reach my career goals”.
TAR College has been working closely with many business organisations, professional bodies, universities and other institutions of higher learning worldwide. The College will continue to develop closer cooperation with more large multinationals such as SHARP in order to establish mutually beneficial collaborations in the form of form of joint research and development, industrial attachment and other initiatives. |
