It is known that the rescue team this time, the 116 free waterway team has 5 members and in order to find the victims in the last days of the year, the brothers in the team all have to temporarily put aside family work to fully participate in the search. find victims.
“In the last days of the year, and the moment to welcome the new year, who does not want to be with family, enjoy the warm moment of Tet reunion. However, following doing rescue work for several years, not only me but also other members of the team might not have a full Tet holiday when the victim was not found, so following discussion we agreed to search for the victim. on the river… through Tet.
We encourage each other to work hard to bring the victim home as soon as possible,” Van confided.
Established in 2020, up to now, the free 116 waterway rescue and rescue team is well known for its volunteer work. Regardless of day and night, the brothers in the team are always ready to rush into the search and help the families in distress on the river.
Sharing regarding the work that the brothers have been doing for the past few years, Mr. Van said: “The difficulty of this profession is to be courageous, not afraid of difficulties or demanding compensation. I believe anyone who wants to participate will actively participate, not force. Fortunately, there are also many people who understand, so the families of the team members also understand our suffering and the brothers are also assured to participate in the rescue work.
Doing this charity work, we see that many families are still very poor, because of poverty, the children soon have to hunt for crabs and snails in the riverside to find food every day, for their livelihood they go to graze cows, but unfortunately slipped and fell into the river.
When the victim’s family hires a divers, the team of divers can get from 20-30 million VND for 10 hours of fishing and searching for bodies. With such a large amount, I am afraid that it is too much for the families of the poor victims.
From the understanding, the rescue team searched for the body for free, even when the body was found, the team also had volunteer members to do jobs such as bathing the body, changing clothes, applying makeup, and burying the victims free of charge. fee,” said Van.
As the new year approaches, Mr. Nham Quang Van also wishes everyone good health, luck and joy. The biggest wish of this 8X captain is that in the new year there will be no more drownings on the river…
