PETALING JAYA (Jan 28): Radium Development Bhd has contributed RM30,000 to enhance facilities at SMK St Mary in Kuala Lumpur, reinforcing the company’s commitment to supporting education and community wellbeing.

Datuk Gary Gan Kah Siong, group managing director of Radium, highlighted the importance of creating a supportive and conducive learning environment for students. “SMK St Mary, KL was selected for this initiative in line with Radium’s philosophy of giving back to communities surrounding its developments and supporting the wellbeing of local residents,” he said in a statement.

The funding will be directed towards upgrading school facilities, aiming to provide a safer and more productive environment for both students and staff. The cheque presentation was held at SMK St Mary, KL, and attended by representatives from Radium, the school’s Board of Governors, and the Parents-Teachers Association.

The improvements are expected to benefit approximately 1,075 students and 96 academic and non-academic staff. Radium noted that the initiative also aligns with United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, including SDG 4 (Quality Education), SDG 9 (Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure), and SDG 11 (Sustainable Cities and Communities), by supporting enhanced infrastructure in the school.

“This initiative underscores Radium’s role as a responsible developer committed to generating long-term value for communities around our projects,” added Gan. “By investing in essential school infrastructure and creating a healthier, more conducive learning environment, we continue to bring our ‘Building Good’ philosophy to life in meaningful ways.”

From a property and investment perspective, initiatives such as these also strengthen Radium’s presence and reputation in key markets, complementing ongoing activity in commercial property in KL, high-demand office space in Bukit Jalil, and the surrounding industrial property in Selangor, including factory developments in Puchong and well-established industrial property in the Subang area.
