BEIJING, July 21 (Xinhua) -- China's Internet users have selected 10 individuals as China's "Good Samaritans," for the second quarter of 2016.

The winners were announced Wednesday following hundreds of thousands of votes cast by netizens since July 1, according to Xinhua News Agency, the initiator and sponsor of the event.

The Good Samaritans include Zhang Junping who has tirelessly promoted traditional Chinese culture among the young, especially those with behavioral or social problems. Students were offered classes such as how to play the Chinese zither, paper-cut craft and calligraphy at an educational institute established by Zhang in the northern port city of Tianjin.

More than 20 of the students have behavioral problems or are autistic, but they have acquired some professional skills after attending free courses at Zhang's institution.

The winners also included fire fighter Cai Wei from central China's Hubei Province who risked his life many times to save others, and Wang Feng from Henan Province who was severely burned after saving his neighbors from a fire at a residential building.

Village doctor He Xinglong has been based in a poor village in Shanxi Province for 16 years and has clocked up more than 400,000 km going door-to-door. He is on his sixth motorbike due to the bumpy roads.

The online vote, held since 2010, is conducted quarterly to promote ordinary people's deeds and improve moral awareness.
