Commenting on the establishment of the scholarships, Dr. Tonsana Gurumayum said, “As a former student of this government school and a trustee of the MaolKeki Foundation, I am very pleased to be able to give back to my alma mater. I trust these scholarships will support academically bright students to achieve their dreams.”

Principal Mr. Ph. Mantri Singh also commented, “Such a gesture from one of our alumni members is much appreciated and should encourage students to join Johnstone School. We look forward to working together with the MaolKeki Foundation in supporting our student community and hope this kind act will also encourage other alumni members to contribute to the school.”
