Inspired by other volunteers, Wu said, "Being born in Hainan and experiencing Super Typhoon Rammasun as a kid a decade ago, I believe it's time for me to give back to society now that I'm older."
Gao Yong, a policeman and retired soldier from Shenmu, Shanxi province, arrived to help after a 21-hour journey that cost over 10,000 yuan ($1,405). He commented on the heartening scene of numerous volunteers collaborating to clear roadblocks, mentioning that the meaningful work made fatigue nearly unnoticeable.
