| Data Info |
The Tuan Mong School at Tank Road was the first to have a ‘master clock system’ in 1960, which controlled clocks in 48 classrooms, canteens and halls, setting off chimes according to the school timetable. Initiated by public-spirited Teochew clan leaders with an aim to provide free education, the school building was the first school in West Malaysia to include a built-in two-way public address system with an inter-communication unit, which enabled communication between the headmaster and his students. The school was closed in 1994 due to falling enrolment. |
