KOTA KINABALU: While urbanites get all worked up over slow or limited Internet access, especially when they need to carry out urgent transactions online, a Sabahan girl took it upon herself to find a solution.
Instead of whining and throwing a tantrum, she looked for a tall tree and climbed it just to get better reception.
“Studying off campus as a result of Covid-19 and the movement control order, Internet access is not readily available, ” said the Pitas-born girl. “That’s why I chose to hike up a hill to study and later on, challenged myself to stay and sleep on a tree for 24 hours to prepare for my exams, ” she said.
