Welcome to the 1BestariNet Portal!

The 1BestariNet project, an initiative by the Malaysian Ministry of Education in partnership with YTL Communications, is bringing the future of education to every school in Malaysia. For the first time in the world, high-speed 4G internet connectivity, a cloud-based learning platform, and access to 'best-in-class' resources will converge under an integrated solution designed specifically for teaching and learning.

Over 10,000,000 Yes IDs have been provisioned to every school, giving teachers, students, and parents access to the Frog VLE, the Yes 4G network, and global learning resources via the FrogStore, anytime anywhere. All of this is available through the 1Bestrinet Portal – a single point of access for Teachers, Students and Parents.
