A little Tibetan boy is a real hero!

A real hero, a Tibetan boy named Dolma Kyab, saved a child who was floating in a lake. Dolma Kyab, just 13 years old and a middle school student in Luchu County (Amdo), was on his way to school by Dawa Lingkha (Moon Garden) when he heard the faint cries of a child some distance away. He immediately rushed towards the sound and found two children crying and visibly distressed.

Realizing something was wrong, Dolma Kyab quickly scanned the area and saw a five-year-old child floating in the lake. At that moment, two men, around 30 years old, were walking by the lake. Dolma Kyab thought he had found help and urgently signaled to them, but the men hesitated, looking at each other without acting.

Seeing the child gradually sinking, Dolma Kyab knew he had no time to waste. He understood that every second counted in saving the child's life. Despite the danger to his own life, he did not hesitate. He rushed into the lake and began searching with his hands. After a struggle, he managed to grab the child's left foot and pull him out of the water. Dolma Kyab then pressed on the child's chest to expel the water, and the child began to breathe again just as the police arrived and took the child to the hospital.

The next day, the child's parents came to Dolma Kyab's school, offered him a white scarf (Khatag), and expressed their deep gratitude in front of the assembled staff and students. Now, the child has fully recovered and is back to playing with toys!
