COVID-19 forced Malaysia into a massive experiment with online learning ("PdPR" – Pembelajaran dan Pengajaran di Rumah ). The results exposed a deep digital divide.

The alarm clock rings at 5:30 AM. For most urban students, the day begins before the sun rises. School typically runs in two sessions due to overcrowding: morning session (7:30 AM – 1:00 PM) for upper forms and afternoon session (12:45 PM – 6:30 PM) for lower forms.
