On Tuesday, the Tien Sa Taxi Company rewarded 31-year-old taxi driver Vo Chi Cong with a 1 million VND bonus.  The honest driver had returned missing property worth over 40 million VND to its owner.

Late in the evening of 22 November, after dropping off 3 foreign passengers at the Gold 3 Hotel in Son Tra District, Cong found a bag in his taxi which contained 1,800 USD and 2.5 million VND.

Early the next morning, he handed over all the missing property to the Phuoc My Ward Police Station in Son Tra District, asking them to find the owner.  After carrying out their investigations, local police officers returned the property to Ms Eric Trang, who is a Vietnamese-American woman.
