Workers from the Mechanic Group No.8 - Mechanical Construction and Installation enterprise carried out sludge suction at a manhole on the Van Phuc - Phan Ke Binh street, Ba Dinh district, Hanoi. |

According to the workers of the Mechanics Group No. 8, it is extremely hot and stuffy inside the sewer line. Despite having to work in a difficult environment, Mr. Chinh is always optimistic and strives best to complete his task. |
