Organic Urban Farm on Mall Rooftop

Organic Urban Farm on Mall Rooftop

Location: One Utama A new 'farm' called the Fresh Growcer has opened up and it's located on the rooftop of a shopping mall! How amazing is that? What is more amazing is that the vegetable produce is grown organically, without pesticides. The idea about Fresh Growcer was generated by Mr. Emil Jihad who found that many of today's fresh produce sold at supermarkets are grown with pesticides, and consumers are not really benefitting health-wise as the use of pesticides reduces the nutrient content of produce. Therefore, with his partner, he took the initiative to open up an alternative grocer that sells organic vegetables. A great perk of shopping here is that shoppers get to pick the vegetables fresh! Using a sustainable and green approach to farming, the vegetables are grown using the system of aquaponics , whereby water that is rich with aquaculture content (from fish) feeds into hydrophonically grown vegetables. With growing food needs of Malaysia's population and the increasing need to address food insecurity, it's refreshing to see new initiatives that are out-of-the-box like this. Hope to see more urban farms on rooftops in the near future! Maybe one near where you live?

Kita Jaga Kita Banjir App

App link: https://kitajagakita.co/banjir The kitajaga.co app that we highlighted back in July has activated 'Banjir mode'. The app is a decentralised peer-to-peer (P2P) charity platform that allows two users to interact directly with each other to offer or seek help. The Banjir mode app provides the exact location of flood victims seeking help (indicated by a 'wave' icon) and samaritans offering help ('lifebuoy' icon). A 'thumbs up' icon indicates that help has been received. For transparency, other important information is also provided by the app including how much aid had been received and if persons in need are under Covid-19 quarantine.

Affordable Computers for Children in Need

Affordable Computers for Children in Need

A group of Taylor's University students through the Taylor's ME.REKA Space have developed the DuckiePi , a compact and portable e-learning computer that costs Rm400 to build. In 2020, the Malaysia Education Ministry found that 36.9% of students do not have any electronic devices, which impedes their learning process as classes are pivoted online (PdPr). With the introduction of DuckiePi, students will have access to a computer that is substantially cheaper than the average computer in the market. This is a welcoming solution to the digital divide existing in B40 communities. The computer is composed of: Gigabit ethernet Raspberry Pi motherboard Audio output 4GB RAM 4 USB ports 2 HDMI ports 1 SD card slot To get it running, the DuckiePi simply needs to be connected to a monitor, keyboard and mouse. Its operating system is Google Chromium OS and students can use Google tools, Zoom and others for their e-Learning. The DuckiePi is now available for purchase at RM500. With every DuckiePi sold, Taylor's University will donate an equivalent to a child in need.
