Kuala Lumpur – Malaysian teenager Ain Husniza Saiful Nizam’s unexpected rise from anonymous pupil to national leader against school harassment began with a teacher allegedly joking about rape.
When the 17-year-old called out the incident in a viral TikTok clip, thousands of fellow students responded by sharing their harrowing experiences of verbal and physical harassment.
The massive outpouring inspired Ain to create the #MakeSchoolASaferPlace online campaign despite a vitriolic push-back on social media, a rape threat and a warning she could face expulsion.
“When I spoke out about it, (I got so much) hate toward me and I don’t know why,” she said. “It’s just making schools a safer place. What is there to debate about it?”
