Malala won the Nobel Peace Prize in
2014 at the youngest age. In 2013, she spoke from the podium of the UN
Headquarters, “I’m here to speak up
for the right of the education of every child!” She lives in life-threatening danger from
the Taliban, but has claimed the right of the education for all children and
women.
Malala was born in 1997 in Mingora,
Pakistan. In 2009, the
Taliban banned
girls’ education service by destroying girls' school. They continued to threaten the girls to pursue education. Malala suffered
a gunshot wound on her shoulder and forehead from
the Taliban in the bus after school in 2012. She lost her consciousness and was transferred to Birmingham,
England with her family. After
her wound was treated in England, she
was safe.
After this incident was reported, the whole
world outraged. As soon as Malala was recovered, she
worked as an activist advocating
women's education around the world.
My Opinion...
Malala is 17 years old like me and my friends. I compared Malala to
myself and my friends
around. We think of education as a natural right like breathing air but we don’t gratitude our precious educational rights.
Students aren’t pleased with their life filled with
exams or homework and they tried to find a way out of that. On the opposite side of
the earth, youths of the same
age with me are
under threat and crave for our
basic education righst that we wanted to escape from.
I
am fully aware of how happy I am and
lucky to receive support and encouragement from my entire family.
Idle teens I see in school who do not prepare their future, waste time, or don't take advantage of the
benefits of education constituted a sharp contrast and gave me a great lesson.
