Accordingly, authorized by the Central Executive Committee of the Youth Union, Secretary of the Quang Ninh Provincial Youth Union Nguyen Phuong Thao directly visited, presented the "Brave Youth" badge and commended the brave spirit of union member Dinh Duc Hiep.
The Brave Youth Badge was awarded to Mr. Dinh Duc Hiep.
On this occasion, the Standing Committee of Quang Ninh Provincial Youth Union also awarded a certificate of merit to Mr. Hiep for his humane and responsible actions.
Mr. Hiep said that on the ship carrying 49 people, there was his entire family - 8 members. When the ship suddenly tilted and was hit by a storm, Mr. Hiep was still inside, where darkness and seawater seeped into every compartment. His mother was also trapped and had difficulty breathing. In the moment of life and death, she told her son: "Find a way to escape, I can't breathe anymore."
But Hiep did not give up. He tried to pull his mother up, found a way to keep her alive, then dived back down to continue saving people.

Mr. Hiep saved his mother, a man, two women, and tried to save another male victim but failed.
Mr. Hiep's brave action not only demonstrates the spirit of "wherever there is a need, there are young people, wherever there is difficulty, there are young people" but is also a living proof of the kindness, responsibility and bravery of Quang Ninh youth in the most dangerous moments.
The awarding of the Brave Youth Badge to Mr. Dinh Duc Hiep is a worthy recognition by the Youth Union for his quiet but meaningful contributions, contributing to spreading good values in the community.
