Founder
Madam Lau established the first Apple King
kindergarten in the year 2000. Today, the
Apple King network has grown to 6
kindergartens, 3 tuition centres, and 2
special education centres across Kajang,
Bangi, and Semenyih.
Her journey into special education is deeply
personal, inspired by her own daughter on
the autism spectrum. This experience
shaped her mission to provide structured,
compassionate, and effective intervention
for children who need it most.
“We are here to structure intervention
thoughtfully so that children with special
needs can receive the opportunities they
deserve to live happier and more confident
lives — and to give families hope when
many other treatments have failed.”
