Outside Source

Available for over a year

Akbar Hossain works for 麻豆社 Bengali in Bangladesh. When he spotted a man carrying a woman, he decided to find out more. It turned out that the woman was the man's mother and that he was carrying her to get her to a hospital. He walked a total of seven kilometres in order to get her there. It's started a big conversation in Bangladesh about healthcare and road systems. Akbar told OS about the moment he found the pair. (Photo: A man carrying his mother. Credit: 麻豆社/Akbar Hossain)
