When Covid-19 pandemic outbroke in the area, his company suspended the operation. Knowing that many charity groups failed to bring the goods to the epicenter to support locals because they did not have vehicles, he voluntarily used 5 trucks ranging from 2.5 – 10 tonnes of his company to join the transportation team. Also he drove a truck to the pandemic hit localities and unloaded tonnes of commodities and supplies.

Trinh Dinh Thuc and his truck on the journey to support the Covid-19 fight.

In early May, Thuc and his friends founded ANRM charity group. Since then, they could not remember how many thousands of km the members drove to deliver the charity goods. He paid himself for all rising expenses in such journeys.

Thuc said one day he received a phone call from his friend in Bac Giang city asking hime to buy vegetables for quarantine area in Nenh town at 10 pm. Thanks to the contact point in the charity group, he could quickly make the order. That day, it rained hard in early morning. Thuc was so concerned that he woke up at 4 am, wore his sleepers, picked up sacks then drove truck right to the field where the farmers were cutting the vegetables.

Only for a while, more than 2,000 bunches of fresh vegetables and one tonnes of pumpkins were loaded on the truck, delivered to the quarantine areas and control stations at My Dien No.1 and 2 residential areas for the locals. At the finishing time of nearly 10 am, Thuc had a instant noodle and planned for the next journey.

The disease was well controlled in Viet Yen district. Thuc and ANRM still keep operation and are ready to come to other needy localities in Bac Giang province. Recently, they have linked to deliver nearly 20 tonnes of commodities, mostly vegetables, rice, bottled water and fish sauces to the people in the communes of Thanh Hai, Tru Huu, Kien Lao, Chu town (Luc Ngan district) who are in difficulties due to the disease.

The group continues supporting people in Tan Yen district, Bac Giang city while planning to call for donation of food and necessities for citizens in Ho Chi Minh city.

Since the ongoing outbreak, he and the charity group have called for donation of over 2 billion VND in cash and kind for the quarantine areas. The positive contribution of the young director and his friends was acknowledged by Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee by a Certificate of Merit.
