District Council Smartboard at Majlis Daerah Setiu, Terengganu

On 20 October 2026, Israk Solutions installed a district council smartboard at Majlis Daerah Setiu (MDS), giving the council a modern tool for internal meetings, briefings and presentations at its office in Setiu, Terengganu.

Moving Beyond Projectors and Printed Handouts

Like many local government offices, Majlis Daerah Setiu’s meetings and briefings used to rely on a projector and printed handouts. Sharing a laptop screen meant finding the right cable, and anything officers wanted to highlight or mark up on a document had to be done on paper afterwards rather than in the room, in front of everyone.

A district council smartboard like this one addresses both of these gaps directly, giving officers a single large display that handles presentations, screen sharing and touchscreen markup without extra equipment.

It also removes a recurring source of friction at the start of every meeting. Instead of the usual few minutes spent checking if the projector bulb is working or if the right cable was brought along, officers can simply walk in, connect wirelessly and start the discussion, which matters when a council’s meeting schedule is often packed back to back.

Wireless Screen Sharing Without the Cable Hunt

As part of the handover, Israk Solutions’ team walked Majlis Daerah Setiu’s officers through wireless screen sharing directly from a laptop to the smartboard, so a presenter can mirror their screen in moments instead of searching for an adapter or waiting for a projector to warm up.

For a council office where different officers present at different meetings throughout the week, that removes a small but recurring source of delay at the start of every session, and keeps discussions focused on the content rather than the setup.

Touchscreen Annotation for Council Discussions

Beyond screen sharing, the 75-inch touchscreen lets officers annotate directly on whatever is displayed, whether that is a shared document, a map or a presentation slide. Points can be marked, circled or noted on screen in real time during a discussion, instead of being written down separately and matched up with the document later.

Key Features at a Glance

This district council smartboard brings together several features Majlis Daerah Setiu now relies on:

• Wireless screen sharing directly from a laptop, no cables or adapters needed
• Touchscreen annotation on documents, maps and slides during meetings
• A single large 75-inch display replacing both projector and printed handouts
• Straightforward operation that officers can use without ongoing technical support

What This Means for Majlis Daerah Setiu

For a district council, meetings often involve covering several agenda items in a limited time, from infrastructure updates to community programmes. Having a display that handles presentations, screen sharing and annotation in one place means less time spent on logistics and more time on the actual discussion.

It also means notes and markups made during a meeting are visible to everyone in the room immediately, rather than being written separately and shared afterwards, which helps keep follow-up actions clear from the moment a meeting ends.

Over time, that kind of consistency also makes it easier for new officers joining the council to follow how meetings are run, since the same screen, the same workflow and the same way of capturing notes carries over from one session to the next, rather than depending on whoever happened to take notes that day.

Bringing This Technology to More Councils in Terengganu

This project reflects Israk Solutions’ growing presence in Terengganu, supporting local government offices and councils that are looking to modernise how meetings and briefings are run. A district council smartboard installation like this one is often the first step in a wider move towards more organised, paperless ways of working across a council office.

As more district councils and government agencies in Terengganu look at similar upgrades, Majlis Daerah Setiu’s experience is a practical example of what that shift can look like in a real council office, without disrupting how officers already prefer to run their meetings.

Why Local Government Offices Are Looking at Smartboards

Government offices across Malaysia are gradually moving away from paper-heavy, projector-dependent meeting setups, and a district council smartboard fits naturally into that shift. It does not require officers to learn an entirely new way of working, it simply replaces the slower parts of a familiar process, the cable search, the printed handout, the separate notes taken after a meeting, with a single screen that keeps everything in one place.

For a district council like Majlis Daerah Setiu, that kind of change also sends a small but visible signal to the community and to visiting officers from other agencies, that the office is keeping pace with how modern meetings are run, without needing a large-scale digital overhaul to get there.

Installed and Explained by Israk Solutions

Israk Solutions’ team installed the 75-inch smartboard on site at Majlis Daerah Setiu’s office in Setiu, Terengganu, and walked officers through wireless screen sharing and touchscreen annotation so the council could start using the board confidently from its very next meeting.

That hands-on handover reflects how Israk Solutions approaches every government deployment: the technology should be ready to use immediately, with officers able to run their first meeting on the new display without waiting on extra training sessions down the line.
