(VOV) – An old man and his son have been brought to Quang Ngai’s Tay Tra district to live a normal life after living in the jungle for 40 years.


Ho Van Thanh, 82, and his son Ho Van Lang, 41, were said to flee their home village of Tra Kem in Tay Tra district 40 years ago after a bomb explosion ripped through his house, killing three of their relatives.


They were found living in a tree house by local foragers a week ago.
