Well-guarded

A Chinese woman won praise from her compatriots for guarding manholes without covers during recent flooding in the city of Jinjiang. The covers of the manholes had been moved out of place by the action of the flood waters, leaving a serious hazard. However despite the flood, the local woman stayed on hand to warn pedestrians, cyclists, motor cyclists and car drivers that the covers were missing. She placed umbrellas in some of the gaps as well as a warning notice in another.
