Female Teacher Inspires Netizens for Crossing River on Tramline to Reach School
DEDICATED EDUCATOR – A female teacher earns admiration and inspires netizens to cross a river on the tramline to reach school.
Recently, a TikTok account “Dragon Fruit Ladies” shared a video of a dedicated teacher crossing a raging river using a tramline just to get to her school. The post quickly spread like wildfire on social media and elicited reactions online.
In the video, the teacher and a companion can be seen riding the tramline over the powerful currents of the river in San Jose, Brgy. Manoot, Rizal, Occidental Mindoro.
Despite the dangers, the teacher, whose identity was not revealed, bravely crossed the river, knowing that the tramline could snap at any moment. The residents in the area rely on this tramline as their only means to travel across the river and reach different sitios, including Sitio Danlog, where the teacher works.
Many netizens admired the teacher’s determination and commitment to her profession. Others, however, expressed concern for the safety of the residents, calling on the local and national governments to provide a safer and more reliable way for people to cross the river.
Some netizens pointed out that the teacher likely had no other choice but to use the tramline, given the lack of infrastructure in the area. They urged authorities to take action and address the issue.
As of this writing, there has been no update from the video uploader on whether the call for help has reached the authorities. Many hope that the video will draw attention to the need for better access and safety in remote areas like this.
