My delivery van: Arief's only way to earn a living
Arief drives for a living in Bekasi, and a broken radiator and cooling system has stopped all income for 8 weeks.

I make my living with my delivery van. 8 weeks ago the radiator and cooling system failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $100. Without the vehicle I earn nothing.
I have been borrowing from friends to pay rent, and now I have run out of people to ask.
I support my 4 children. Before the breakdown I worked nine hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next three months if I can just get the vehicle working.
I have a written estimate from a certified mechanic and will upload it here.
I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update.
Where the $100 goes:
• Towing and inspection: $15
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $50
• Labor charges: $35
Every share and every dollar helps.

Keep going. Shared this with my family. I have a 10 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Greetings from Shinjuku.
Thanks for sharing this, Arief. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Put this on a community board in Pokhara this morning. Take care
