Still Waters Posted November 2, 2019 #1 Share Posted November 2, 2019 Well-wishers have donated almost a million yuan to a Chinese student who was hospitalised after living on 2 yuan ($0.30, £0.20) a day for five years. The case of Wu Huayan shocked Chinese people after it hit the headlines earlier this week. The 24-year old woman became seriously malnourished while struggling to study and support her sick brother. Ms Wu's story also sparked anger at authorities for failing to recognise her plight and help her much earlier. After the story was reported, donations began pouring in for the college student in the city of Guiyang - reportedly totalling some 800,000 yuan ($114,000, £88,000). https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-china-50258307 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
