VIRAL: Bangladeshi kid playing hide and seek reaches Malaysia

Unexpectedly, a 15-year-old Bangladeshi kid wound up 2,000 kilometers away in Malaysia after accidentally dozing off while playing hide and seek. The child decided to hide inside a shipping container while playing with his friends, according to the Daily Mail report. But because he was so exhausted, he dozed off and awoke six days later in a new nation. On January 11, he was confined inside the container and on January 17, the Malaysian port employees and local police discovered him inside, fully "exhausted and dehydrated.

According to media accounts, the child named Fahim is from Chittagong in Bangladesh and got into trouble while playing hide and seek with his friends. He was unintentionally imprisoned inside the container, which then sailed over 2,000 kilometres across the Indian Ocean with him in tow.
