It is once again the results season for STPM students and after almost two years, the students finally got their tickets to higher education yesterday (25th February).
Out of the 44,823 candidates, one individual stands out with her results, her attitude and her background. She is Nuraini Jalaluddin, 20, from SMK Tun Saban, Pengkalan Hulu, Perak and also the daughter of a garbage truck driver! Nuraini sat for her STPM exams back in 2019 and yesterday, she got her finalised results.
According to Malaysiakini, she got a CGPA of 4.0 and a result of 5As. She was awarded the Best Student for STPM 2019 in the B40 category during the STPM results announcement ceremony at the Malaysian Examinations Council (MEC). Feeling overwhelmed, Nuraini said that she was thankful for the acknowledgement of her achievements. She added,
“I never thought my efforts in burning the midnight oil till the very end would yield such results. I will take this as a catalyst for me to excel even more while furthering my studies in the future.”
Wow, what a humble person she is!
She also said that her father, a garbage truck driver at the Pengkalan Hulu District Council and her mother, a housewife were really proud of her for achieving those results. Her father had been driving the garbage truck for over 33 years already and will be retiring next month. Nuraini hopes that he can rest now and enjoy his retirement life after working for so long.
Finally, she said:
“Just by gaining an education, I can change the fate of my family towards a better future.”
We’ll definitely be waiting for more great things from you Nuraini! We wish you all the best in your future endeavours and may you be able to give your family the life they deserve!
