Horse Revival

Ma Fuxing, male, Hui nationality, born in March 1959 , member of the Communist Party of China, head of the Maer Elementary School of Handong, Yuzhong County, Xining City, Qinghai Province. He is the representative of two consecutive people’s congresses in Qinghai Province and the torch bearer of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games.

"The fire has already taken away my hands and can no longer claim the children's tomorrow."

Without hands, they worked on the three-foot podium for 36 years so that rural children could see the outside world...

Born only four months, Ma revival fell into the fire under the kang, had lost his hands, but, unfortunately, life did not allow him to yield, in March 1981, by virtue of their tenacious efforts and tenacious perseverance, Ma Fuxing started from a private teacher and took the initiative to assume the same workload as a normal person. He took every lesson seriously, cared for every student, popularized fire prevention knowledge with parents of teachers and students, and dedicated his half life to what he liked. Education.

The lower Ma’ar village is located in the area of ​​the Brain Mountain. The overall cultural quality of the masses is low, and fire safety awareness is weak. The nearest fire brigade is 60 km away. Once a fire breaks out, professional rescue forces cannot arrive at the first time. Ma Fuxing knows the relentlessness and cruelty of fire. He knows more clearly that to prevent the fire in the village, the most effective way is to prevent oneself and help oneself. It is his responsibility and duty to teach and educate people. How to prevent church fire and how to save it? We must teach villagers how to ensure their own safety in the event of a fire.

When he first came into contact with firefighting, the horse revival did not lower the requirements for fire safety education because of physical inconvenience. He endured soreness and learned with great perseverance to use stumps to operate some common fire-fighting equipment. After numerous attempts, he was able to smoothly use his residual arm to pick up an 8 kg dry powder fire extinguisher and to demonstrate the use of the extinguisher skillfully, without exceeding the perseverance of ordinary people. This is impossible.

Under Marel Elementary School, four fire classes are organized every semester for all teachers and students, and parents participate. The teacher is Ma Fuxing. He often says, “Fire has already taken away my hands and can no longer claim the children’s tomorrow”. .

Today, he is already the headmaster of the Maer Elementary School of Handong Countryside in Yuzhong County, Xining City, Qinghai Province. However, he still sticks to the front line of education work, and his head, face, and clothes are covered with powder. He still insists on Students and villagers popularize fire safety knowledge and are highly respected by students and fellow villagers.

In September this year , the Yuzhong County Fire Brigade and the Bureau of Education jointly presented a "Fire Safety Education Reader" to each teacher and student of Maal Primary School. After getting the textbook, the horse, who had been the principal, began to study the evening of the revival. Concentrate on preparing lessons until two in the morning. During the cultural activities class in the second week, he was prepared to give lectures to the students. He was moved to learn that he was going to take fire classes for the students. The little playground was full of villages. The folks of the elders, everyone spontaneously came to learn fire fighting knowledge.

In 31 years, he snapped a finger. Every day, he is the first to go to school and the last to leave school. The people around him asked, "I have already suffered such a heavy burden on the body, and I have to pay so much for you. You should also enjoy the blessings of what you plan." But he replied: "I don't know what to do, as long as my students We can learn about culture from my contribution. The village's rural environment can learn useful fire fighting knowledge. The children have a good future and the village is safe. I will be satisfied."

The two daughters were the pride of the Ma recovery, and they all became teachers of the people after graduation. The father’s hard work and commitment are the best textbooks. The two daughters look in their eyes, put it in their hearts, and put it into action. While teaching and educating people, they still remember the teaching of fire safety knowledge and they all serve in the school. Part-time fire teachers, two generations of pointers continue.
