(Bernama pic)SHAH ALAM: Two children can finally get into the shade after having had to study under the blazing sun just to access the internet for online classes.
The two siblings, Muhammad Hazmi Mirza Umi Azilani, 12, and Dhiya Hannah Mirza Umi Azilani, 10, are pupils of Sekolah Kebangsaan Bukit Rimau in Section 31 here.
They were all smiles after Telekom Malaysia finished installing an internet line at their house, allowing them back indoors to follow the home-based lessons.
Their mother, Haniza Abdul Majid, 38, said her children had been forced to follow PdPR in the sun outside the house since the school year began on Jan 20 because of poor internet access at their home in Kampung Jalan Kebun.
“Hazmi and Dhiya spent between three and four hours daily from 9 m on school days to follow the PdPR lessons from outside the house. ’The internet reception in the house is very poor. I can only send messages through WhatsApp.
‘’Any interaction via video or accessing large (data) contents including PdPR sessions using applications such as Google Meet or Zoom is only possible when outside the house,’’ she said when met by Bernama at her house today.
Haniza is grateful to TM for agreeing to install an internet cable at her home after a picture of her accompanying Dhiya studying outside the house went viral on social media on Wednesday.
‘’TM’s representatives came to my house to ask about our problem and agreed to help. They came to install a cable at 9am today, and I am expected to get good internet access in the house tomorrow or on Sunday.
‘’I was a TM internet customer prior to this but due to the awful and often unstable internet connection, I decided to terminate my subscription. I was told by the TM contractor back then that the area of my house has internet access problems,’’ she said.
She said she would now be able to fully focus on looking after her 74-year-old mother Limidah Haton, who has been bedridden for a year after suffering a stroke. - FMT
