The Tawau Red Crescent Society donated 10 smartphones to the less fortunate students at SMK Wallace Bay in Tawau, Sabah, today.
TAWAU: Not wanting to miss the home-based teaching and learning online lessons, students in Wallace Bay, Pulau Sebatik near here, are travelling 30km or 40 minutes by motorcycle to Sungai Tongkang just to find better internet connection. In sharing this, Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan Wallace Bay senior assistant for student affairs Sibrin Daie said the poor internet coverage in Wallace Bay and surrounding areas had forced the students to go far from their homes to take part in PdPR lessons.
“These mobile phones will be given to 10 eligible students. We know that at SMK Wallace Bay, many students are sharing mobile phones with their parents.Meanwhile, Tawau Red Crescent Society chairman Pang Pak Chung said the aid programme targeted secondary school students who did not have a mobile phone.
He said 10 students at SMK Wallace Bay had met the requirements, based on the applications submitted by the school.
