Welcome movesWelcome moves to better reward good Samaritans

China Daily | Updated: 2017-10-16 07:12

THE PROVINCIAL legislature of Central China's Henan province recently published the draft of a local regulation on rewarding good Samaritans, which raised the rewards they might receive. Beijing News comments:

There are two points that are significant. First, the draft regulation clearly states that the next of kin of those who die trying to save others will receive 1 million yuan ($152,013), which is the highest such award nationwide. Only Guangzhou, capital of South China's Guangdong province, offers the same. However, Guangdong is more prosperous than Henan.

Second, the next of kin of Henan residents who die helping others outside the province will also be given the award. In the past, their heroic deeds had to take place within the province.
