VMW Pytaeavy became a volunteer in 2009. His mother was assigned by the village chief to become the VMW but her lack of writing skills limited her ability to make reports. Besides, she was doing other health volunteer work which made it difficult to combine. Pytaeavy said he was ready to take on the responsibility, and he was chosen in the end He loves helping other people in the village. The most difficult thing about his work, however, is people knocking on his door asking for help really early in the morning when he's still sleeping, or while he's having lunch. But he's used to it now. Is a farmer as well.
