A brave teacher

01/11/2006
Ms Nguyen Thi Loan, teacher of Yen Thang junior secondary school in Yen Mo district of Ninh Binh province, was one out of over 20 passengers on a car en route Hong Quang-Ha Dong driven by Nguyen Ngoc Bach. She was on her way home from Thuong Lam commune, My Duc district, Ha Tay province.

When the car stopped at a petrol station, three young men o­n motorcycles attacked the driver and his assistant. However, all passengers were afraid to prevent them from attacking these men, except Ms Loan who resolutely stopped their action saying "I will solve your problems". However, the gangsters still ignored her proposal and continued to attack the driver and his assistant. Ms Loan said that "If you don't stop, I will call police". With her strong and resolute determination, the guys began to be worried and thought that she was a secret police-woman. Therefore, they ran away. Later, Ms Loan made a report and asked other passengers to sign in and sent it to police for tracking down the gangsters.

Her brave action has been praised by police as well as other passengers.
