According to statistics from 2016, there are up to 300,000 stateless children under the age of 18 in Malaysia.
Walking in the village of Saga in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, all that meets the eye are dilapidated, unauthorized wooden houses. These people are stateless individuals, and the children are unable to attend school, wandering aimlessly in the village every day. In July 2020, Tzu Chi Foundation conducted home visits in the village and planned to establish a learning center to provide basic education for these stateless children.
The days at the learning center are filled with happiness; education has opened up another world for these children, fueling their aspirations for the future. However, after four months of school, the learning center received a dropout application from a 16-year-old student because she was getting married.
