My food truck: Ratul's only way to earn a living
Ratul drives for a living in Gazipur, and a broken fuel pump has stopped all income for 4 weeks.

I make my living with my food truck. 4 weeks ago the fuel pump failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $200. 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 3 children. Before the breakdown I worked nine hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next four months if I can just get the vehicle working.
I have a written estimate from a certified mechanic and will upload it here.
All money will go toward the parts and labor on the estimate, with a small amount for road tax and insurance renewal.
Where the $200 goes:
• fuel pump replacement (parts): $170
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $25
• Towing and inspection: $5
Thanks for being kind about this.
