Đào Xuân Minh, a poor man living in a flooded area of Cẩm Mỹ Commune, Cẩm Xuyên District, Hà Tĩnh Province discovered two pieces of gold worth VNĐ10 million in a coat pocket that had been sent to the area as emergency aid.

He posted the news on Facebook to find the owner to return the gold.

A leader of the Cẩm Mỹ Commune People's Committee said local authorities were contacting relief teams to find the owner of the gold.

During the last historic flood, Minh's home was flooded by more than 1m and his property was damaged.

His family was provided relief, including old clothes. On October 28, when he took out old clothing from a relief pack, he discovered two small pieces of gold in a box in the jacket.

On the outside of the box, there was an address of gold shop on Cao Thắng Street, Vinh City, Nghệ An Province.

Immediately, he informed local authorities to find the owner of the gold.

Despite his won difficulties due to the flooding, Minh said he still wants to do the right thing and get the gold back to its owner. — VNS
