The journey of understanding
For more than 8 years, the image of a 50-year-old man with an old motorbike and a set of gifts has become familiar on the streets of Can Tho City. That is Mr. Nguyen Thanh Tung (Ninh Kieu District) - the person who spent all his free time rescuing vehicles with power outages and out of bottles for free.
Sharing about the opportunity to work this special job, Mr. Tung said that he had fallen into a similar situation and received timely help. Understanding the confusion of the victims, he decided to equip himself with a water bul bul bul bulletin and began a free rescue journey in 2017.
"Late at night, in many cases, when there is an incident in the middle of the road, finding workers to pick up the bottles is also expensive, about 200,000 - 300,000 VND, and finding workers far from the center is even more difficult. Therefore, I decided to help drivers in distress, Mr. Tung shared.
Mr. Tung started to establish the group "Zero-priced equation of Can Tho's centuries". His group has gradually become known to many drivers and asked for help when encountering problems on the road.
regardless of day or night, rain or shine, just receive a call, Mr. Tung leaves. He operates within a radius of more than 20km, supporting battery charging for motorbikes, cars, taxis, trucks and container trucks. At the same time, he also supports free tire patching for motorbikes.
More than 4,000 cases are supported
Up to now, Mr. Tung has spent his own money to buy more than 20 sets of bottle size, supporting more than 4,000 cases, an average of more than 600 vehicles per year. He hopes that his small action can help and inspire many others.
Currently, Mr. Tung is known by many people as the familiar name "Mr. Tung Dinh Binh". His phone number 0917.160.068 was saved by many people in the phone book, as a familiar "savior" of drivers on Can Tho streets.
For Mr. Tung, the joy is to see drivers return home early, the car runs smoothly, not having to sleep on the road in the cold wind, nor is it costly and time-consuming when the car has an accident, especially for drivers driving trucks and cargo vehicles at night.
A person who was helped by Mr. Tung shared: "Mr. Tung and the members of the group are very enthusiastically supporting our drivers for free in all cases. This is a very noble gesture, the drivers in Can Tho always appreciate and are grateful for the meaningful work of Mr. Tung and the whole group.
After each support period, he did not receive any salary from anyone. Instead, sincere thanks from the drivers are happiness, giving him more motivation. The story of Mr. Tung's beautiful actions gradually spread and became known to many people, from which he also had more good relationships in life.
