TANAH MERAH (Bernama): A father has set up a tent at the top of a 20m hill for his daughter to participate in online learning sessions due to the poor internet and telecommunications coverage in their village.

Nurlieda Khaleeda Mohd Azmi, 20, a second-year medical laboratory technology student from the University of Malaya said before the "classroom" was set up by her father Mohd Azmi Ahmad, 48, she used to go to the town some 3km away just to get a decent internet connection for her studies.
