Schooling in a far remote region

Is she a backpacker who is travelling on a swift stream to enjoy the beauty of nature? No, it's not true. It is a teacher in a far remote region who goes to the first day of school opening.

Wearing a school bag on the back, she doesn't put on a life vest and a boat seems to be almost sunk into a stream.

With a smile on her face, she seems to be unaware of a grim reaper that is waiting for her at the river bed if she falls down in water. On a riverside are some adults looking at her, even one takes a photo of her as if it is common sense to take a boat in such a setting.

Schooling is a noble job to help children on their path to a bright future. Thus, the safety of teacher's life must be paid attention. Nobody recognises it, even a local government ignores this issue while teachers play a key role in the national development. How poor for teachers in such a region.
