This man said his name was Lo Van Son (43 years old, Kho Mu ethnic group, from Nghe An). In his hometown, Mr. Son has a wife and 6 children.
A few months ago, Mr. Son was sent to Quang Nam to work for a gold farm owner in Phuoc Son district (Quang Nam province). Afterwards, Mr. Son felt sick and exhausted because he could not work anymore, so he asked his boss to pay him to go home. However, the gold farm owner did not agree to let him leave and did not pay him his salary.
Mr. Son escaped from the gold mine and walked for 6 days from Phuoc Son district to Da Nang city. Due to lack of money, Mr. Son went hungry on the way and only asked for water.

In addition, the traffic police also picked up the car, and the bus company also supported Mr. Son to return to Nghe An, free of charge for transportation and meals along the way.
