Making waves to school in an army boat

Military manoeuvres: Army personnel ferrying schoolchildren from Kampung Bemban across the river.

JELEBU: Twenty-three students from Kampung Bemban near here had an experience of a lifetime when they were given an army boat ride to school because the bridge in their village had been swept away by a recent flood.

The students had no other option but to take the boat ride across Sungai Teriang as there was no other route to their schools.
