Through the use of CoreChart, under-privileged people in Kyrgyzstan and Malawi have been able to develop low cost control solutions to aid their communities. In Kyrgyzstan, CoreChart has been used by local villagers to develop a low-cost temperature control system for the production of candles. In Malawi, CoreChart has been used by local technicians to create low-cost touchscreens for use in hospitals and HIV clinics.

These pilot projects are now being expanded as CoreChart Sponsorship For Poverty Relief (CCFPR) in some of the least developed countries of the world. It is promoted through NGOs and major global ICT events to provide a sustainable platform to relieve poverty. eLabtronics believe it will have a profound impact on global poverty eradication.

eLabtronics are keen to share their experience at the World Congress on IT (WCIT2008) in Malaysia on how under-privilege village people acquire engineering skills and form their own micro-businesses to realize their dream of empowering their own people to become more self sufficient through training and start up of ICT enterprises.

CoreChart for Poverty Relief is the brainchild of Peng Choo, CEO of eLabtronics, who grew up in Brunei.
