Fortunately, students can now access their school textbooks that are under KPM in a digital form via the Education Ministry’s application – KPM eTextbook Reader.
Based on an announcement under Kota Buku, an organisation under the Education Ministry, parents no longer have to worry about the delayed distribution of physical textbooks as students can easily access digital textbooks via this application using their laptops or handphones.
