Residents flock to beggar's banquet
A 50-year-old beggar in Chongqing gave a birthday banquet for hundreds of his neighbors as a big thank you for their years of support.
Chen Deqiang was born with infantile paralysis and since childhood has needed a wheelchair to move. He started begging near a temple in Jiulongpo district 10 years ago when his parents died.
