Maintenance workers paint signs on the road in Chamdo. KUANG LINHUA/CHINA DAILY Members of the People's Armed Police Force spend their working lives repairing dangerous roads and safeguarding travelers. Zhang Yangfei reports from Nyingchi, Tibet autonomous region. Editor's note: This is the third in a series of stories about the Tibet autonomous region, focusing on the area's history, the cultural and business sectors and poverty alleviation measures. Imagine driving along a narrow mountain road where one side is a wall of rocks that could tumble down at any minute and the other is a steep drop into a deep, fast-flowing river. The unfenced road, rugged, mud-slicked and about 2,000 meters above sea level, only allows one car to pass at a time and when drivers tackle hairpin bends, they cannot see any ground, just a broad expanse of sky. This is not an imaginary scenario; until relatively recently, it was the terrifying reality along a 20-kilometer section of road linking Bomi county and Bayi township in Nyingchi city in the southeast of the Tibet autonomous region, often known as the roof of the world. rubber wristbands ukcustom silicon wristbandspersonalized moon braceletthick rubber wristbandsdual layer wristband
TIANJIN - For many people, late-night calls bring unwanted disturbance, but for 74-year-old Zhao Yonghua, they are a cause for excitement. When his phone rings at night, Zhao, a volunteer advocate for body donation, replies I'll be there asap, puts on his clothes and rushes to the scene. Sometimes a phone call informs me the death of a voluntary body donor, and in such cases every minute counts, he said. Upon arriving at the scene, Zhao helps bereaved families fill in application forms, and answers their questions on the body donation procedure. Formerly a worker in north China's Tianjin municipality, Zhao has been an advocate for body donation for about 20 years. In 2002, Zhao notarized his will for body donation, as did his wife. Before that, the couple had set up a service hotline to promote body donation and organized voluntary activities. So far, Zhao's volunteer group, which has over 100 people, has assisted more than 2,000 people to apply for body donation, with their registrations being filed. My job does not stop at getting them to sign the papers. We visit the families of the donors often and show them respect, he said. In a memorial park in Tianjin, the names of 803 body donors are engraved on a monument, and Zhao knows a third of them. wristbands canadacustom baseball wristbands nikebest price silicone wristbands80s rubber braceletssequentially numbered silicone wristbands<%2fcenter>
