Pandelela Rinong: Not your average student


The start of her journey: Pandelela Rinong receiving the Universiti Malaya Olympian Fund scholarship from Prof Awang Bulgiba in 2012.

Training is a full-time job but that hasn’t stopped Olympian medallist Pandelela Rinong from earning a degree at the peak of her career. The elite athlete gets candid about the challenges of juggling training and her studies.

ON Tuesday, national diving queen Pandelela Rinong Pamg, the second of four siblings, will be the first in her family to graduate with a degree. The fearless Sarawakian took her first plunge at the tender age of eight, and she’s been making waves since.
