He travels 7km to school everyday on an old secondhand motorcycle. The journey takes him 30 minutes one way. Despite his long tenure, his income has remained extremely low due to the school\u2019s limited financial resources. Worse still, payments are not consistent and often delayed by months.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/144634072.fs1.hubspotusercontent-eu1.net\/hubfs\/144634072\/Indo%20teacher%201.webp?resize=640%2C429&#038;ssl=1\" width=\"640\" height=\"429\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"Indo teacher 1\" style=\"height: auto; max-width: 100%; width: 1000px;\"><\/p>\n<p>The school\u2019s operational funds reportedly rely on government aid under the Bantuan Operasional Sekolah (BOS) programme.
