After assisting a tourist to Canggu in finding his phone on the beach, a Balinese driver has become a "millionaire."
British tourist Archie Davey gained significant attention on social media after he shared a clip of his search for a lost phone on Canggu Beach, Indonesia.
In his post, he mentioned setting a $2 million reward for anyone who could help him find the phone. After that, many GoJek drivers looked around the beach at night to find tourists' mobile phones.
After a period of searching, one of the drivers suddenly discovered the phone covered by sand nearby
As part of his initial promise, the young British man offered a reward of $2 million to the driver who found his phone.
According to the conversion rate, the driver receives 2 million rupees, equivalent to 110 British pounds (about 130 US dollars).
In the viral clip, the driver appeared very happy and was checking the amount of money he received, which was 20 Rp100,000 bills.
A British tourist stated that the phone was very precious to him, so he decided to pay a worthy amount of money for drivers to find it.
Although the reward amount of £110 may not be considered a fortune in the Australian context, it is important to note that it is nearly equivalent to the average monthly salary of a service worker in Bali
Shortly after the video was posted, commenters flooded with praise and support for the tourist and the driver, expressing their admiration for their genuine happiness upon finding the phone.
The one who got it must be splitting the money with others; Gojek's drivers are the most loyal people I've ever met, especially with their people, one user commented.
I love them; they're so happy for him to receive the money that there's no jealousy or hatred. That money's going to help him so much! The second expressed.
Bro, it may be cheap for you, but man, thank you. You just made someone's day, which was a lot for drivers Indonesian, another wrote.
Good that you got back your phone; it was fun for the drivers too, someone said.
