A Vietnamese businessman has invented a machine that provides free rice for people out of work during the coronavirus crisis. The device operates 24 hours a day, just like a bank money machine, or ATM. Businessman Hoang Tuan Anh set up his first rice machine in Ho Chi Minh City. “I refer to this machine as a Rice ATM because people can withdraw rice from it, assured that there are still good people out there who want to give them a second chance,” Anh said. Vietnam is under a nationwide stay-at-home order to help stop the spread of COVID-19. During the order, many small businesses have been forced to close. This has left thousands of people unable to work.
