KOTA KINABALU, September 14, 2015 - As a boy in the hinterland of Baram, Sarawak, it was
usually on Saturdays at the end of the school holidays that Rendy Ziki, now 30,
would wake up at midnight, pack his meagre possessions and bid his parents
goodbye before making his way into the darkness for the long journey back to school.
For the graduate of PETRONAS’ VISTA programme, in
collaboration with Kolej Yayasan Sabah (KYS), the journey from being a nomad
boy to a welding instructor has been no walk in the park.
