In today’s society, a bicycle has become an exercise equipment
rather than a mode of transportation.
There are many children and family living in poverty in the outskirts,
and estate plantations who can hardly make ends meet at the end of
the week, or month.
Some of these children have to walk up to 10km everyday
to school with their heavy bags and I think giving them a bicycle
will certainly take them a long way.
As for the bigger picture, I believe education is an important vehicle
to help these students acquire knowledge to gain a brighter future,
which is critical to bring about change in their family and the next generation.
So in a way, giving bicycles to these children is a way to assist them to achieve
their dreams.
