Seventeen days after a 10-year-old boy fell into a 35-meter-deep concrete pillar in southern Vietnam, where he was trapped and died, rescue workers have managed to pull the pillar up by just 12m.

 

Rescuers are pulling the concrete pillar up section by section.

 

Nam and three other children who are his neighbors went to the bridge construction site in Dong Thap Province on December 31 to gather pieces of iron for the purpose of selling them to scrap vendors to earn some money.
