A total of 105 individuals have been named as China's "Good Samaritans" for January, after online recommendation and evaluation by Internet users nationwide.

They include cobbler Meng Guangbin, a resident of northeast China's Heilongjiang Province, who has been mending shoes for others free of charge for about twenty years, and Xu Jiren, a resident of east China's Zhejiang Province, who donated 2.65 million yuan (about US$385,000) to people in need at a party celebrating his 80th birthday.

According to wenming.cn, the official website for the selection, the event in January attracted about 30 million Internet users and authorities received 1.41 million recommendations.
