World Children’s Day 2020: How Are Our Teenagers Coping?

It is World’s Children’s Day today (20th November), and in conjunction with it, we’ll be focussing on how teenagers have been doing throughout this pandemic. In Malaysia and across the world, teenagers have had to deal with school closures, delays or changes in examinations, as well as losing physical connections with their friends. We speak to a teenager to get a personal take on the situation.
