How a National Squash Champion Is Walking Again | Keeogo Malaysia
Kenneth Low Ewe Loong, once a household name in Malaysian squash and a six-time national champion, faced one of the greatest challenges of his life when multiple sclerosis (MS) began to claim his mobility. A hero on the courts, known for his agility and unmatched skill, Kenneth was confronted with a reality that seemed worlds apart from the roaring cheers and victories of his sporting days. Yet, as those who know him will tell you, Kenneth's strength lies not just in his physical prowess but in the resilience and determination rooted deep within him.
As his journey shifted from championship trophies to personal battles with MS, Kenneth refused to let his condition define him. Enter Keeogo, a groundbreaking lower limb exoskeleton technology that became his new ally in reclaiming movement and independence. With each step supported by Keeogo, Kenneth began to rewrite his story. It wasn't just about regaining mobility—it was about rediscovering hope, purpose, and the will to keep pushing forward.
Kenneth's recovery journey with Keeogo is nothing short of remarkable. Imagine the first time he managed to take strides he never thought possible, the joy lighting up his face, and the tears of gratitude that followed. Picture the moments of frustration he endured as he struggled to rebuild his motor skills and coordination, only to triumph time and again. Through Keeogo, Kenneth not only walked but also found a way to actively engage in life, coaching others and inspiring those around him.
His story is one of perseverance, aided by innovation and bolstered by the unwavering support of his community. Keeogo was more than just a technological marvel; it was a symbol of Kenneth's resilience and proof that no obstacle is insurmountable with the right tools and spirit.
Today, Kenneth Low Ewe Loong stands as a beacon of hope—not just for athletes but for anyone facing life's unforeseen challenges. His journey with Keeogo reminds us that courage, determination, and innovation can create miracles, even when the odds seem stacked against us. Kenneth's unwavering spirit continues to inspire those who cross his path, proving that true champions aren't just made in sports; they are forged in life.

Sure Boh? It¡¯s Real! Amazing Seniors Meet Keeogo: The Future of Mobility
“I thought I was on the set of Terminator,” Penny Low exclaimed as she kicked off the very first episode of Sure Boh? on the Amazing Seniors YouTube channel. But what she was really seeing was not science fiction — it was Keeogo, a revolutionary exoskeleton that’s changing lives for seniors and individuals with mobility challenges.
In a heartwarming and informative sit-down with Iris Chin from Keeogo Malaysia, Penny explored the cutting-edge technology behind the device that stands for “Keep on Going.” Hailing from Canada and now available in Malaysia, Keeogo is the lightest powered exoskeleton in the market — just 6.8kg — designed to assist people who face mobility limitations due to stroke, Parkinson’s disease, brain injuries, or aging-related conditions.
What makes Keeogo different? It’s not just the futuristic look. Keeogo uses smart sensors at the hips and knees, detecting the user's movement in real-time and providing adaptive support. Whether standing, sitting, walking, or even doing lunges, Keeogo helps retrain the body through repetition — a critical element in neurological recovery.
The story took a powerful turn when Iris shared how Keeogo is not only used but made accessible right here in Malaysia through the Keeogo Robotic Training Centre in Petaling Jaya. The center offers personalized, robotic-assisted physiotherapy and occupational therapy, supporting patients on their journey to regain mobility and independence.
But the innovation doesn't stop at the legs. Iris introduced the concept of “Rehabiotics”, combining rehabilitation with robotics — including Mirror Hand, an exoskeleton glove designed for stroke survivors that uses mirror therapy to help the affected hand mirror the movements of the healthy one.
Throughout the conversation, Penny’s excitement mirrored that of many viewers: “This really gives hope.” From wheelchair-bound individuals walking again to seniors returning to sports like golf and bowling, Keeogo isn’t just a device — it’s a bridge back to life.
And for those wondering about affordability? A more personal-use-friendly model is already in the pipeline, making it easier for families to access advanced rehabilitation without the hefty cost.
This inspiring episode reminds us that mobility isn't just about movement — it’s about freedom, dignity, and staying connected to the people and activities we love.

Because aging doesn’t mean slowing down — not when Keeogo is here to help you Keep on Going.
