» Heartbreaking family situation of 'traffic knight' in Quynh Luu

Despite his difficult circumstances and poor health, 'traffic knight' Ho Van Dieu (Hamlet 6, Quynh Van Commune, Quynh Luu) has been volunteering for 13 years to lead students through the "crossroads of death" on Highway 1A. Sadly, his only son is in critical condition due to a traffic accident. The daily cost of his treatment at Viet Duc Hospital (Hanoi) is up to 20 million VND.

Sympathizing with his difficult circumstances and admiring his spirit of self-sacrifice for the community, in recent days many organizations and individuals in the area have contacted the Front Working Committee of Village 6, Quynh Van Commune to visit, support and help the family.
