According to this person, the abused children were NTC (born in 2019) and TMH (born in 2018). Because C. refused to eat, cried, and covered her mouth, Ms. N. sat on top of her and forced her to eat tangerines, causing her to panic and cry a lot. As for H., she was playing and broke her toy, so Ms. N. used a red plastic brick (a toy in the classroom) to hit her on the head and slapped her in the face, causing her to panic and cry a lot.
After the incident, Ms. N. met and wanted to compensate the child and family, but there was no agreement. After that, the incident was spread on social networks. Working with the authorities, Ms. N. admitted her violations. The Ward People's Committee directed the ward police to continue verifying the information and advising on handling Ms. N's actions according to regulations. Ti Bo Kindergarten was also suspended from April 25.

Talking to Tien Phong newspaper reporter, Ms. Le Thi Phuong (living in Nha Be district, Ho Chi Minh City) said that four days ago, her relatives saw a peacock with white feathers perched on the balcony of their private house in Thu Duc city. The homeowner tried to chase the bird away with his hand but the bird did not react, so he caught it and brought it inside. After that, the peacock did not eat or drink, and moved weakly. The next day, Ms. Phuong took the bird to the Wildlife Rescue Station in Cu Chi for care.
Seeing the traffic police checkpoint, dozens of people carried their vehicles over the embankment and ran in the opposite direction on the prohibited road.
On the morning of April 25, the Hang Xanh Traffic Police Team under the Traffic Police Department of Ho Chi Minh City Police set up a checkpoint on Pham Van Dong Street, Thu Duc City, to handle dozens of cyclists.
About 30 meters from the traffic police checkpoint, many cyclists shouted to each other "traffic" to signal many cyclists in the car lane. Dozens of cases carried bicycles over the embankment to move into the lane designated for motorbikes, bicycles, etc. Some other cases even disregarded their own danger, turned around and ran in the opposite direction on the prohibited road despite knowing that the speed of cars at this time was quite fast, potentially causing accidents.
Shipper had his car stolen and received donations from the community to buy a new car.
Recently, information about Mr. Huynh Van Son (34 years old, from Vinh Long) - a delivery man (shipper) in Thu Duc City - having his motorbike and more than 80 orders stolen by thieves was widely spread on social networks.

After the incident, the shipping company asked Mr. Son to pay the total value of more than 80 orders (equivalent to more than 11 million VND). What made the male shipper even sadder was that the motorbike worth 53 million VND - his family's savings over many years - could not be found.
After reading about Mr. Son's situation, Ms. P. (living in District 1, Ho Chi Minh City) and her friends raised more than 80 million VND. Ms. P. went to his accommodation to give him the money and took him to buy a new car worth 60 million VND. He used the remaining 20 million VND to cover the compensation for the lost goods.
