Deputy Prime Minister Dr Horace Chang returned to his roots last Friday and opened a new state-of-the-art computer laboratory at the New Roads Primary School in Westmoreland, the institution he attended as a child.

The facility, which was funded through Chang's personal resources, is equipped with desktop computers and Internet connectivity, including Starlink service installed with assistance from the Universal Service Fund (USF).

In his address to students, teachers, and community members at the official opening, Chang said the lab is intended to provide lasting opportunities for children in the rural community.
