Barefoot postman Ha K’Rieng on the way to deliver letters Photo: Documents The danger still doesn’t give up Ha K’Rieng (K’Ho people) was born in 1957 in Đạ Tông commune, Lạc Dương district, Lâm Đồng. In 1982, he was accepted to work in the mail delivery team of the district post office, in charge of three mail routes from the district center to Da Chais, Pang Tieng and Dam Ron. In which, the Lac Duong – Dam Ron route is the most arduous and dangerous. If going on a big road, having to pass a 200 km long road, Ha K’Rieng chooses a shortcut through the forest to shorten the mail route to 70 km. To conquer this journey, Ha K’Rieng has to walk 24 hours and on average he has to take 2 such trips per week. On the way to Dam Ron, he had to climb two steep mountain slopes, so high that the posterior could only see the feet of the person in front of him. at the same time pass many fast flowing streams. However, that is far from seeping in comparison to the fear of being knocked down by wild malaria, attacked by wild animals, and in ambushes by Fulro. Ha K’Rieng (second from left) when sick Once, he and his friend Ha Su went to deliver a letter. Groping through the forest under dense fog and rain, a bear suddenly rushed to grab Ha Su. Seeing you use both hands to hold the mouth of the bouncing bear, Ha K’Rieng put his hand behind his back to take the bar to store in the basket, but it has been lost ever since. He shouted as he scolded the bear with the stone and twigs. Then find the leaves of the forest to chew on and cover your wounds from the scratches of the bear to stop the bleeding and then lead you to the infirmary. In 1978, Y Djao Nie, the self-proclaimed Prime Minister of the “Fulro De-Ga Government” was killed by his subordinates, and replaced by Y Ghok Nie Krieng, placing the headquarters of the Fulro reaction force in the Dam area. . From the deep forest, they radiate ambushes, attack on soldiers, terrorize officials, making the business trips of the News Group even more dangerous. In August 1980, two people in the News Group in Lac Duong, Lieng Jang Ha Huong and Ndu Ha Rang, died while transferring letters and letters to Dam Ron. That day, on a business trip, when they met a car of the Lac Duong District Medical Center, they asked for a ride. The car carrying 12 people ran to the Heaven Gate area when the Fulro forces ambushed and shot and killed 11 people on the spot, only Mr. Le Van Duong (Malaria Station technician) survived. In order to avoid Fulro’s attention, when traveling on a business trip, Ha K’Rieng had to wear loincloths to disguise himself as a militant. Dispatches and letters are hidden at the bottom of the basket, while the upper is for food and common items. Walk 5 circles around the earth Remembering in 1995, when meeting in Dam Ron, Ha K’Rieng showed me a brand new motorbike and excitedly said: The provincial post office supported me to buy this vehicle to deliver letters and parcels. From now on, it will be much less strenuous than before, and the delivery time for letters and parcels has been significantly shortened. However, due to traffic difficulties, many high mountains and deep pools have to be overcome, so in the rainy season, you have to wrap the chain on the tires to pass the muddy and slippery roads. Heavy rains, muddy dirt roads, subsidence, Ha K’Rieng had to leave the car at home, continue walking. We calculate, the distance he walked up the mountain pass for 13 consecutive years (1982 – 1995) combined must be 5 times as long as he went around the earth. Seeing me staring at the big, rough legs, Ha K’Rieng confided: “The unit has equipped the postman’s shoes but is miserable, after just a few trips, the base is punctured. We came up with a homemade style of sandals with car shell soles and rattan straps, which is just fine. But in the end, barefoot is still the best, because it is possible to click on slippery moss, although sometimes the feet bleed from rubbing on crushed stones, thorns … ” Due to the characteristics of her profession, Ha K’Rieng retired at the age of 50. Unfortunately, just a few years later, he developed brain tumor. He underwent an eight-hour operation, was in a coma for 8 days, and more than a month later was released from the hospital. Although life was regained from the hand of death, health increasingly deteriorated. His eyes were fading and almost completely blind, his legs could no longer stand, his hands were shaking, his body was swollen … A few days ago, receiving the news of his death, and being sent back to the heavenly realm, everyone who knew this earthly hero felt pity.
