Rashed needs my tuk-tuk repaired to get back to work in Rajshahi
Without my tuk-tuk Rashed can't work; a $150 repair would put him back on the road.

I make my living with my tuk-tuk. 12 weeks ago the clutch assembly failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $150. 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 wife and our newborn. 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 $150 goes:
• Labor charges: $40
• clutch assembly replacement (parts): $105
• Towing and inspection: $5
Thank you for reading my story.

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Rashed.
Labor charges is $40 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Good question.
This could happen to any of us. I went through something like this 8 years ago and strangers helped me out. Take care.
