On October 27th, Mr. Vu Hong Lich, Chairman of the People's Committee of Ward 2, Tan An City, Long An Province, stated that he had reported to the competent authorities to verify the identity of an abandoned newborn boy that a woman had reported to the ward.

According to the report by Ms. Ly Thi Kim Tuyen, 38 years old, residing in My Phu commune, Thu Thua district, Long An province, at around 9 am on October 25th, while sitting at a beverage stall in front of Gate 1, Long An Bus Station, Ward 2, she was asked by a woman around 25 years old to hold a baby boy a few months old while she went to the restroom.

Ms. Tuyen agreed and waited for over 30 minutes, but the woman did not return. She took the child to search around but could not find him. Afterwards, she took the boy to the Police Station of Ward 2 to report the incident.

According to Ms. Tuyen, in addition to the baby boy, the woman also left behind a plastic bag containing diapers, milk, clothes, a thermos bottle, and other baby supplies, but there were no documents verifying her identity.

After receiving the information, the authorities verified it but have not yet been able to identify the boy.

With Ms. Tuyen's consent, the People's Committee of Ward 2 temporarily entrusted the baby boy to her care for 7 days while awaiting verification. Ms. Tuyen pledged to take good care of the baby, not to exploit the situation to solicit illegal donations, and not to post information on social media.

At the same time, she pledged to return the child to the family when found, or to the authorities upon request, without demanding any other benefits.
