This study investigates the awareness and perception of students in the vast rural and interior areas of Sarawak to establish the socio-economic implication of problems, such as difficulty in accessibility, interior and inadequate school facilities or lack of trained teachers. These differences were compared with those in the urban/sub-urban areas to provide a cross-sectional view of the Forms 3, 4, 5 and 6 students of different ethnicity over nine divisions of Sarawak.
