Vietnam cafe owner fined after foreign tourist seen close to oncoming train - theold - 21-06-2024

HANOI: The owner of a cafe in Hanoi’s famous “train street” has been fined 7.5 million Vietnamese dong (US$300) for allowing a foreign tourist to pose for a photograph on the rail track as a train approached.

In a viral video posted to Facebook on June 18, a woman is seen coming onto the track and seemingly posing for a photo as a train approaches.

As the train nears, a man comes running to push the woman to safety.

The man was later identified as the cafe owner.

So the corrupt Vietnamese authorities collected US$300 from the cafe owner for saving the life of that foreign tourist.
