Yang Baolin, 49, deputy director of villagers' committee of Shuping village, an area in Zhen'an County, Shaanxi province, surrounded by hills, decided to build a 15-km road connecting the village with the main highway, reports the China Daily.
In 2007, Yang moved into a cave near the under-construction road so that he wouldn't have to travel a long distance to get to work everyday.
Yang and his team of villagers are still toiling hard to build the road, which they say has hit a roadblock due to shortage of funds.
Man, that's dedication.
