Previously, six-year-old Jacquelin, who is in pre-school, astounded us all by attempting to become the “youngest Malaysian to scale the World Highest Base Camp,” which is the Everest Base Camp in Nepal at a height of 5364 meters. Notably, Jacquelin is attempting this Malaysian Book of Records endeavor just to raise RM10,000 for disadvantaged, orphaned, and mistreated children in our country. That demonstrates the child’s generosity and genuine desire to help the community, particularly children her age.

Little Jacquelin has now set a new national record by conquering Everest Base Camp, which took her five days to arrive and another two days to complete the 130-kilometer trek. Nowadays, youthful prodigies are notably finding their path to success. The nicest thing is that we as a society get to witness a proud Malaysian moment.
