Yes, some Malaysians have to risk being robbed on their way to school too.
I did not risk my life to go to skool, this is why I am a happy illiterate!
Their courage is unsettling, thanks!
amazing!!
how the education is so important for them…
for once to take that risk maybe so weird and horrorable…
but for usual… maybe it’s so easy for them….
they are wild. they are like young volcanoes.
Wow. Heroes indeed!
Really it hard to go and live in this area…… any how great effort for going to shcool.
Amazing. Where did you get this information from? And who took the incredible photos?
Amazing! … and a reminder not to take both our children and education for granted
Wouldn’t it be easier to bring the education to the children? Or move?

If any children at home complains about school show them this and maybe they can understand and be thankful they do not have to risk life going to school the even the intercity schools are safer than what these children have to go though
Woopsies, I fell…
Jeez that’s crazy that they have to risk their lives just to to school, sometimes I have to drag myself out of bed.
Danger? I bet more kids get hit by cars on the way to school in developed countries than those kids do on the cliffs.
hey the zipline and the cliff roads are kinda cool, but i don’t think i’d like that every day…
Damn – nothing like these pictures to put some of my own ( perceived ) obstacles into perspective!
To everyone posting “poor kids, what’s being done about this?” Those kids are fine. They are clearly alive. YOU are the walking dead to be pitied, not them.
omg its terrible ….what the government doing ?
God shows Mercy upon the Children all over the world, I thank HIM that he loves the little children so much. All people should show more love and respect for OUR GOD in Heaven and be so thankful and always Praise HIS Name for his love compassion and favors he bestows upon this world. Thank GOD he gave us his son Jesus to give us a way to get to heaven someday. Hallelujah Amen!
You Idoit. What the hell does god have to do with it? Those kids are most likely not even Christian. And why would they thank god for forcing them to risk their lives everyday? If this is how god shows he loves them, doesn’t that make him kind of a douchbag?
Hats of kids! To ur dedication to studies
send all the school bullies there for boot camp.
They couldn’t make it Joyce……
Man. And I could barely get up and walk to school. Are these kids even kids??
I recall being upset if the ‘cool’ bus seats were already taken.
it is amazing that how they are going to school when danger is every where.
I am amazed at the courage those kids have. I mean, I could barely get up this morning.
Wow, that really gives you some perspective. Some amazing images.
Eye opening images. Thanks for sharing.

I´ve been to some of these countries, it´s terrible, but it seems as if they are not aware of the danger, or maybe they don´t want to think too much about (which I understand)
This certainly is unique.
I only hope those children can grow up safe. They are suppose to be children….
I’ll show it to anyone, who complains on traffic jams, while seating in air-conditioned car.
