Who are they in the pitiful life
As night fell, many homeless people gathered on the main streets; Hai Ba Trung, Phu Doan, and Trang Thi, of course, are also familiar destinations for benefactors and volunteer groups.
The scene of the homeless on the streets of Hanoi
Women who always accompany children
Over the years, we have noticed that there are many people with different backgrounds. Among them there are people who are homeless, not real families. Others are very mysterious. At the intersection of Phu Doan – Trang Thi, at night, many people lie on the sidewalk in front of closed shops. Many people are very familiar, for many years have taken the sidewalk here as their home.
Homeless people are always present at night
Through research, some of these people are patients from a small town to Hanoi for treatment, after each time they take medicine, they will find a place to stay until tomorrow to continue to the hospital. Or, many freelancers come here to live for the day.
As for Hai Ba Trung Street, a long stretch of road, there are many groups of people gathered on both sides. Find out, there are a few people who are really homeless here, and there are many people who often only gather until about 2 a.m. every day to disperse. Because at this time, there are no charity groups to help anymore…
At the intersection of Quang Trung – Hai Ba Trung, at midnight it was freezing cold, PV met 2 children playing innocently on the sidewalk, next to it was a woman about 40 years old. She introduced her hometown in Thanh Hoa and is the mother of two children. However, when we wanted to learn more for the purpose of helping and supporting, she refused to share.
At the intersection of Tho Nhuom – Hai Ba Trung, there was also another woman with 2 children, a boy and a girl. For many years now, all 3 are still often present late at night. The special thing is that this person never gathers with people in the same situation, avoids all contact between children and outsiders, and always shows restlessness whenever there are functional forces passing by.
Along Hai Ba Trung Street, there are many groups of “homeless” people.
Who are they?
Through talking with people living around the area, we were surprised when they told us that many of us have been in regular contact here for the purpose of receiving charitable gifts, as a professional profession for many years. past year. Only a few are homeless and in real hardship.
“Like the person standing next to the station wagon standing over there, it’s fake. Watching from afar, a charity group is walking over, then carrying some around to the other street to pick it up because the group will move. up there.
Also, that stooped woman is really homeless, still wandering around during the day, taking a bath at the service or in the park… The woman in black who’s lighting a cigarette is fake, soon there will be no group. Charity is withdrawing…”, Ms. M. a salesperson many years ago in the area of Viet Duc Hospital.
Among these are those who are only active until midnight
The scooter of a “homeless” person waits every time a charity group arrives
There are a lot of people, people who do charity work… not as much, leading to a situation that makes people who are really difficult can’t help but be disappointed. As in the case of Mr. T. (from a small province, suffering from a serious illness), he has to stay here every night because of difficult circumstances, unable to arrange accommodation by himself. According to him, every time the charity team comes, sick and slow people like him often lose out. Many times when the yeast is released, the gifts have already been distributed.
“Every time a charity group comes, there are dozens of people surrounding them, asking for them all, the group that has a comfortable gift will have their turn, if the group gives a few gifts, it will be over.” Mr. T said that this information is true, once a patient shared with the press, then was bullied by the other people.
Like those who know the rules here, Mr. T revealed that many homeless subjects are suspicious, they only operate at peak hours (about 10 a.m. the previous day to 1 a.m. or 2 a.m. the next day), then lost attraction..

Where will the charity gift go?
According to our observations, people coming to charity come in many different forms and groups. In terms of food, there will probably never be a shortage here, sometimes there are charity groups or individuals who bring food, bread, packages of sticky rice to donate to situations.
“I want the children to understand that in a society where there are many people who are in difficulty, suffering, and lack of food. Therefore, sometimes I cook sticky rice with my own hands, add a piece of meat, and let my two children accompany me for my children to witness. “, Ms. Hoa in Hoang Mai district, one of the benefactors, shared.
Of course, Ms. Hoa and all the other benefactors want their hearts to reach out to really difficult situations. They never want their kindness to be taken advantage of, and it is even more sad if that kindness is taken advantage of, or even stolen, right in front of those who really need it.
“When they see a group traveling by car, there will be many gifts and usually blankets, shirts, noodles, rice, they will rush out more. If any group rides motorbikes, they can immediately guess it is sticky rice, cake, or lunch box, it won’t be very exciting”, a resident in the area who knows the rules said.
The real homeless are sending out presents
While sharing a story with us, sometimes someone riding a motorbike comes to ask about the homeless group, Ms. M said, this is the object of “collecting goods”.
“For the real homeless, usually there is no place to live, many gifts do not have a place to gather, sometimes someone will come to buy them, these people are professional, buy them cheaply, even force them to sell them. at a very low price. If there are too many gifts that cannot be sold, they will send them to some families in the alley.”
People come to give gifts
Previously, talking to the press, the leader of the People’s Committee of Hang Trong ward also said: “The People’s Committee of Hang Trong Ward, in collaboration with the Department of Labor, Invalids and Social Affairs of Hoan Kiem district, as well as the sponsor center, have raided a number of times”.
According to ward leaders, many of these subjects are not homeless, in fact they have a decent address, but they are all here asking for charity gifts. On New Year’s Eve, the ward government raided 7 subjects, including 2 children. These people were then taken to Social Protection Center 1.
Leaders of Hang Trong ward confirmed that many of these people are not homeless, they wander to ask for charity items along Trang Thi street to Trieu Quoc Dat area. Most of the subjects are resident outside the province.
