Making a living in the hot weather

Ho Chi Minh City and the southern provinces are experiencing a peak heatwave with consistently high outdoor temperatures. Amidst the stifling heat rising from the asphalt roads, the daily lives of the people continue quietly and persistently in the heart of the city.

These are the workers, meticulously protected by masks and sun-protective jackets; the elderly woman selling lottery tickets, the scrap collector, or the old man pedaling a cyclo slowly. From sanitation workers and sidewalk construction workers to power plant workers toiling high above the ground, all are persistently and diligently working. Amidst the scorching sun, the free water dispensers on the sidewalks also become beautiful images of compassion, helping to alleviate some of the harshness of the weather… These colorful scenes realistically portray the vibrant spirit of city workers during the peak of the hot season.
