Kota Kinabalu: Kian Kok Middle School’s RM18 million eight-storey multi-purpose building is finally open, a decade after construction was completed.

Designed as a modern multi-purpose centre, the building includes classrooms, a library, student entrepreneurship spaces, and income-generating facilities to support the school’s operations.

Praised as an innovative and forward-thinking initiative, the school-generated income concept is seen as a model for 21st-century education.

Despite setbacks during its development – including the global pandemic, rising construction costs, material shortages, and fundraising hurdles – the long-awaited project has come to fruition.

The official opening ceremony was held at the Huang Qin Nan Grand Hall and officiated by the Board of Governors' permanent honorary chairman Datuk Dr Tan Siu Lin
