In one, a university graduate streamed her convocation from what looked like a tent, while the other clip showed a group of young men braving rising waters to rescue stranded cats from a partially submerged home.
On Nov 30, TikTok user @pearlia uploaded a clip of herself watching the convocation at Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris on a tablet with another woman in a tent. She was in her graduation gown and cap.
The caption read: "Flood victim attends convocation online. Are there others sharing the same fate?"
The video had over 227,000 views and touched the hearts of many.
