The National Day holiday saw both good and bad incidents:

BAD: Tourist broke another country's laws

GOOD: Tour guide donated rare blood

Officials of Thailand met Yang Li, a tour guide from Jiangsu province, in Bangkok on Wednesday to praise her for donating blood, which saved a life. On Sept 22, Yang learned from friends on WeChat that a Chinese tourist whose blood type was AB negative - a rare type that occurs in only 0.1 percent of Asians - had been injured while traveling on Phuket Island. The tourist was badly in need of blood. Yang flew to Phuket on Sept 24 and donated 450 milliliters of blood.

BAD: A tourist assaulted a guide and another tourist

GOOD: Tourist helped avoid danger

Chen Xiaoping, a 62-year-old resident of Shanghai, joined a tour to the Tibet autonomous region. On Oct 1, the group encountered a serious traffic jam, which followed a landslide and traffic accidents in Nyingchi. Traffic blocked the way ahead, and some members of the tour group became impatient and wanted to leave their vehicle to climb over a mountain. Chen dissuaded them, thereby avoiding hazards they may have faced.
