Wu Naiyi, 83, was widely praised after he insisted on repaying 800,000 yuan ($127,840) in debt left behind by his three sons after they died in a typhoon disaster. Wu, from Wenzhou, East China’s Zhejiang province, has refused to accept donations from the public and managed to clear the debt in six years, despite his grief, illness and age.
