The speech was delivered by Sabah Education Department information management and ICT sector chief Ruvia Sylvester.
Maimunah said the Sabah Education Department was trying to be a catalyst of change for the betterment of the students.
She also expressed appreciation to 1BestariNet service provider YTL Communications Sdn Bhd for their professional and financial support to develop the use of ICT in schools, especially in Sabah.
At the event, data plans and smartphones were distributed to the district education offices of Kota Kinabalu, Papar, Tuaran, Penampang and Kota Belud.
