These small gestures mean a lot in people's lives. Absolutely priceless
Well said sir.
It's a win-win situation for everyone! even the few thousands that jamaica will spend for the volunteer vacation would be the best few thousands ever spent and probably the cheapest on a publicity campaign for jamaica!
@@mingming9604 when u see everything from the financial prism it looses it's beauty and worth. What wins is only business.
Jah bless..
@@trust1301 What does it say about you, the only coming to this story to write a negative comment. That somewhat "creepy". You need to get a life.
Cheers to Jamaican who showed a big heart full of gratitude..
True that...😂 👍 Happy Parchment won...2012 Bronze - He never gave up, 2020 Gold...God is wonderful!
@@lornabeckford5419 Amen Lorna. God bless you in Jesus name.
Yah Mann!!!! Seriously.... He's my Hero, at the moment... Appropriate Gratitude... but Rare these days... and Good on The Jamaican Govt for Sure Too...
What a humble sportspersons not forgetting who helped them after they won the medal. Big salute for them.🙏
true sportsmanship
The foundation of Olympic spirit ❤️🙏🏽❤️

Kudos to Jamaica tourism ministry offering her a free holiday in beautiful Jamaica! Karma works both ways.
Wow that's a great news
True. That person know the greatness of small good things to others lives
And for sure..that Tourism Minister is also a kind hearted person....
God bless Jamaica for the having that gold medalist and that Tourism Minister
I'm sure Jamaica is so proud of the gold medal win and very thankful to the young lady for being instrumental and getting their athlete to his event in time that they are beyond happy to bring her to their island for a holiday.
I think it's a wonderful and kind gesture of appreciation that she will never forget. good deeds go a long way, literally.
Karma doesn’t mean something bad, it’s a mistranslation, karma translates to ‘actions’ if your karma is good then you’ll be paid back with someone else’s good karma.
@@dotsanddash8083 I think everyone knows that mr. obvious.
Twice a champion, on the track and better still, in person. Jamaica raised him well. God bless you all.
Ya she fun fun
That's the piece of advice they all share, Don't Don't Don't Ever Forget the people who helped us in our Tough Times...
i help so much people n never one have ever showed me gratitude
@@ypree2518 For that here's 2 advice,
1) Don't expect anything from anyone that you will not be disappointed...
2) Don't help anyone in return of anything, that's not help its business, You may get it some other way....
@@ypree2518 Helping itself is the reward,, cause you have helped someone and that person felt joy within him.
Really nice from the Jamaican tourism ministry to give her a free holiday in Jamaica. She deserves it. I love it when good things happen to good people.
If we all were this kind to each other our world would be such a better place.
She fun fun
Only the Europeans are guilty but the rest of the world have their culture which taught them to show love.
We are responsible for ourselves and should show good examples in our actions.
Well said brother, well said. If each individual takes time to help men/women this world would be a much better place to live. Bless you!
@@africanlastborn7776 the volenteer is actually half serbian half japanesse. Serbia is in Europe and her name and surname are serbian.
God bring peace to the world just like these instances.
Nope. It is peaceful people who bring peace. And no pun intended 😜

@@bharat7188 How am I spreading hate?
@@sauron2000000 you know how
@Roshan T Dubey I said no pun intended.
These instances teach us that we should not forget the one who helped us in our hard times. ❤️
"Can I take a photo?"
That was freaking adorable.
You should mention her name, Tijana Stojković, and she is from Serbia. She deserves some credits for being a good human being!
@Silverbullet 999 now she mix Jamaican.....
@Silverbullet 999 eyyy!! I know what you mean. They are destined to be together, I think God made a way for them to meet. ❤️
👍👍👍👍👍👍
Japanese half.
She is a travel agency staff member, not a volunteer. She is a Japanese born in Japan and raised in Kyushu, Japan. Her father is Serbian and her mother is Japanese. Her Instagram is in Japanese.
She's indeed a good Samaritian. It's always good to help people. You never know when how things may work out in your favour. I am elated he won the hurdles. I know she'll have a blast in JA.
@k c 😂🤣 real idiot, I'm wondering how you look on someone and tell?
These are inspirational stories that are keeping our faith alive in humanity, kindness and compassion.... We need more of such stories and instances in our daily life as well...
Nope, there are many other stories which exposes true face of humanity daily.
Very well said, thank you.
Prashant Mohite, Amen to that!! I am a very emotional person, and these stories touched my heart.
Humanity & goodwill above everything else! 🙏
Kudos to BOTH Tiana, the wonderful volunteer as well as Hansle Parchment the champion! ♥️
The thanks offered by Mirabai Chanu, India's silver-medal winning weightlifter to the kind lorry drivers who ferried her to and from her training centre, is equally moving! ♥️
Made my day, everything and everyone in this world will help winners. Find joy in others success. Let this world be a happy place to live in
Welll said... 👍👍👍👍👍
THAT HYPER FUN THING NOW
This should be the behaviour... After winning prestigious medals, still not to forget from where they come from and who helped them.... speaks great of their character... Salute to them
Absolutely! Far better behaviour than screaming “I deserve this!” over and over!
Wow, Olympics 2020 is really setting some good example on both on the track and also off the track.
Volunteer was kind enough to help him
Humanity is still their.💯
It is a wholehearted appreciation. If he got lost in his direction he had not won the GOLD medal. Good gesture sir Hansle Parchment.
For sure, God sent an angel called Trijana Stojkovic to save this Jamaican athlete who got lost. I'm happy to hear this amazing story.
And then Miraibai Chanu, Tokyo 2020 KG 49 Weightlifting Olympic Silver medalist, paid gratitude to all the truck drivers (that carried sand) who gave her a lift from her home to her training place everyday in her early days of training.
She invited all of them to her, took their blessings, gifted them with gifts.
"Can I take a photo?". I can listen to her sweet voice all day every day
That was very nice. Showing her how grateful you're and you really appreciate what she have done for you . Not many people you find like that. Blessings my brother and congratulations once again. 🇯🇲👏👏👏🇯🇲🇺🇸🇯🇲💛🇯🇲
Japanese are very kind and polite people. I transited in 1 of their airport and had a 1 night layover. I didn't know where to go or stay, I asked one random guy for a direction and showed him a picture on my phone( language barrier)of the place I wanted to go. He personally accompanied me to that place and when I tried to give something in return for his help he politely decline even I insisted. I think we bowed to each other atlist 10x.
Yes they are, but the one who helped the Jamaican athlete was not Japanese though
@@Idgafuno lol another 🤡 making idiotic comments without even doing the research before posting
Some American Olympians could learn a lesson from these humble and grateful athletes. They make my heart smile in such a chaotic world.
@Dan Gm ..yes, most of the 330 million Americans that you have met! 👀🙃
@Da Fonse exactly, helping one another lol.
This is what doing good without any expectations,brings you !
Not necessarily. Don't delude yourself.
Great observation. Good deeds produces good feeling in the heart,. To the giver and taker,.
The fact that he almost messed up because he was listening to music is interesting 😂
It looks totally a Jamaican thing...😂😂
It's not because of music, it's this terrible habit of using earphones all the time and getting engrossed, disconnected with the job at hand even. This guy got lucky...

He was getting into his zone for the race

Anyway here's a copy pasta but a good one:
_It's intriguing how music can take you places. They started playing a BTS song and now I'm in a different cafe._
That's the defnition of success, people coming together for the common greater good. Congratulations to all of them, there are only winners here.
Nailed it 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽❤️
Dear Angel, for taking care of our "son of the soil"- We will always love you!!
Great of Jamaican tourism and the person who has shown his gratitude. Olympics is a traditional name and it's proved. Touching.
the Spirit of sport-manship of an Athlete gives back Respect, Love & Goodwill to those who Helped them to Achieve Goals.
Sad people out there disliking this video. With all that’s happening in the world . This is good news
I'm sure there are many "behind the scenes" stories like these!
Yeah feels good that there are many heartwarming things happening at different places in the world at any time
Nope sadly
Bloody Awesome and Beautiful 🥰🇦🇺 with Love and Respect from an Aussie 🫡
Such a kind gesture!
Thank you Mirabai for your kind gesture to the truck drivers.
This was peace. A good start of the day... I was happy in this chaotic world. I did find peace for a few minutes. ❤️
Nongpok, the volunteer and Hansle, all have a good heart! Bless them!
She's an angel of Hansle...she's pretty too...
Mmmh! I see where you're going with this.
Alright
Parchment's done also very well by reaching up to Gold Medal just after such a heart-throbbing adventure 👍
Some need to make a movie
So wonderful for their generosity of helping out the athletes and the athletes showing appreciation.
This brings tears to my eyes. The gods were with you on that day Jamaican man...congratulations.
Give it back what you got with the help of somebody.. this is simple and principle.. and is overwhelming in heart..
SEEMS TO BE A GREAT GUY. PROPERLY RAISED AND RAISED RIGHT. GOD BLESS
Such a sweet gesture from Jamaica and hansle
Beautiful stories of gratitude. Leaves one happy and teary eyed too. Lovely video!!
Thank you for this. It's heartwarming.
Awesome story, love the selfless spirit of the volunteer .
This is awesome! I remember when this first happened and he tracked her down to show the GOLD medal and thank her for making it possible.
That's why people say do good to others without expectations and universe will give you more in unexpected ways
i done good all my life to others but never received gratitude or favors in whatever i do in life
@@ypree2518 it's ok buddy you have done your part you made an impact in other people's life. :)
@@ypree2518 you have done good, and your goodness is accepted, and made others happy. That is your reward,. Think about it.
Such good deeds are priceless. Heart warming deeds made memorable for all time to come.
Acts of kindness are very heartwarming, but gratitude is just awesome!!
When we consider all the the obstacles that were in Parchment's way, this gold medal is nothing short of a miracle. Consider the facts : (1) if Omar showed up health at trials , Parchment, who finished 3rd would have not made the team; (2) if the majority of Jamaicans had their way, they would have had Omar taking his place on the team; (3) if that angel had not shown up to give him money for a taxi ride to the stadium, he would have missed his semi-finals; (4) defeating the seemingly unbeatable USA champion, Holloway--- no man can take away what God has in store for you.
Who Jah bless, no man curse. Parchment Gold Medal is a miracle, and for those who grew up in the country side its not lost on us the name "parchment" as in Parchment papers(if you know you know) The Jamaican males were being beaten badly by the fans and the press for not winning a medal and we needed that Energy boost.
Yes this is also a message from Jah to remind us of what #brandjamaica looks like and to remind us that only LOVE can open up that Global Market for healthy healing herbs that is waiting to support ventures benefiting the children and the communities. Let those with eyes to see, see clearly the lessons being taught....Prophet inna real life

... but only a small fraction of economic value harnessed
John Myers Jr, Gleaner Writer
Jamaica as a brand is one of the most recognised globally. But while this has created opportunities that have the potential to generate substantial economic benefits for the island, it has also presented local authorities with a growing challenge - that of effectively monitoring and protecting the brand from exploitation by some in the global marketplace, which is resulting in Jamaica losing out on billions in potential earnings.
It is estimated that the island loses about US$20 billion of the economic value of Brand Jamaica annually. This economic value is said to be worth between US$33 billion and US$35 billion annually - based on a formula used by Interbrand to calculate brand value, on an annual basis. Interbrand, established in 1974, describes itself as being the world's leading brand consultancy, with a network of 33 offices in 27 countries. It is the publisher of the highly influential annual Best Global Brands ranking.
"Jamaica's brand value is two and half times its gross domestic product ... . That means there is US$20 billion we can't convert," social entrepreneur Dr Henley Morgan told The Gleaner in an earlier interview.

Sign up for The Gleaner’s morning and evening newsletters.
The Jamaica Promotions Agency (JAMPRO), the principal government agency responsible for promoting and safeguarding Jamaica's brand internationally, said the economic opportunities that continue to escape the country's grasp are something that it is concerned about, but can do very little to halt.
"This is a particularly vexing area of concern," JAMPRO told The Gleaner. The agency, in an emailed response to our questions, said the Government just does not have all the resources "necessary to police and monitor the presence of our brands in the international marketplace".
Register with JIPO
Consequently, JAMPRO said it has been encouraging local businesses to register their intellectual properties with the Jamaica Intellectual Property Office (JIPO) based in Kingston.
"Also, we ensure that several of our workshops do include sessions on intellectual property protection. Professional advice is also available by contacting the JAMPRO Contact Centre," it added.
Joan Webley, the manager of copyrights and related rights at JIPO, had explained previously to The Gleaner that the agency has been pursuing what is referred to as geographical indication (GI) registration to protect products made in Jamaica.
A GI is a name, or sign, used on certain products, which corresponds to a specific geographical location or origin. The use of a GI may act as certification that the product possesses certain qualities and is made according to traditional methods, or boasts a certain reputation, because of its geographical origin.
According to JAMPRO, "In markets throughout the world, Brand Jamaica products are highly favoured". It explained that "Brand Jamaica has managed to do this with the skill and performance of its people [and as such], globally, persons feel a positive affinity for Jamaica - which is the first step towards someone actually buying a product from Jamaica".
Because of the high favourability of Jamaican products in the international marketplace, JAMPRO said it has to consider seriously the island's ability to meet the demand for those genuine Jamaican products that are marketed to the world.
"Jamaica's limitation lies not in the realm of inability to market, but in our ability to satisfy the demand once realised," JAMPRO explained.
Meanwhile, Roselyn Fisher, general manager of the marketing and development arm of the Scientific Research Council (SRC), revealed that the agency is now busy in the formulation of products from nearly 100 different local medicinal herbs and weeds, including the guinea hen weed, which is revered for its anti-cancer properties.
The SRC - an agency of the Ministry of Science, Technology, Energy and Mining - has been spearheading the development of authentic and unique Jamaican foods, teas, beverages, cosmetics and other products. It also does food analysis, establishes plant profiles, as well as propagates and develops high-yielding plant varieties, including tissue culture for sweet potato, banana, and miniature roses, among others.
Ganja Products
With lawmakers about to give the green light for the production of ganja for medicinal use, the SRC general manager told The Gleaner that it is working in partnership with several entities in developing a number of products from local ganja - another plant for which Jamaica is already renowned.
"One of the [products] that we are actively pushing right now is lemon grass. To that extent, we have brought to market lemon grass body wash and lotion, and persons have gone on to manufacture lemon grass drink, tea - different blends - and have exported them and are doing well," Fisher highlighted.
Another product that the SRC is currently pushing is sweet potato, for which formulations are being developed for chips, flour, and drink.
Additionally, "We have formulations for beverages, herbal teas, sauces, condiments, jams and jellies, minimally processed foods," she said, explaining further that "we also do new product development, not just for food, but also for personal care, and a lot of persons are now coming in for us to assist them with products for natural hair."

You got it wrong. The majority of people did not want Omar McLeod the defending champion to make it. Parchment was clean at the trials and he actually won not second, he won the trials. So if Omar had win Parchment would have come in second and still would have made it to Tokyo. We are delighted that he made it and would not have changed it for anyone one or anything.
@@Igniting-Moments LOL! what are you talking about? The result of the national trials was Levy 1st , Thomas 2nd, and Parchment third. Always do your research before posting.
@@barrylloyd5864 ok hahaa. I stand corrected. you are right. I really missed that...
Well said!!
I don’t think anyone needs to criticize American athletes but to instead praise these young people of honor and kindness.
It's not the American athletes that warrant criticism. It's the backward 3rd world mentality of the country
@@chelseafcrocks82 it’s not “the 3rd world mentality of the country” but the self interest and corruption of the wealthy. They have hijacked the instruments of power, politicians, and are using them as a blunt tool to get their way. Show me a wealthy country that’s not corrupt, and if you think they’re not corrupt you’re naive, it’s just a matter of scale.
Asian people taught gratefulness to the young on an early age. These 2 have a lot of class!
Only that the Jamaican is not Asian. But we all are human being
She's actually Serbian.

I just have to say...
you choose the right music 👍👍👍

This is a good lesson for all those who need to understand the meaning of kindness and gratitude. 🌺
The people of Jamaica are very kind and loving 💕
Mirabhai's story is so heart-warming! Gratitude is the most beautiful sentiment!
True that...😂 👍 Happy Parchment won...2012 Bronze - He never gave up, 2020 Gold...God is wonderful!
Oh that's so heartwarming...lovely gestures by the athletes 💕
There's always a reward for the kindness sooner or later 👍
I loved this story. We can be great people at our best. She will have fun in Jamaica. Good job winning the gold.
Lovely. Show your Gratitude towards others who helped you. Wow, absolutely priceless!!!
This is very heartwarming❤️. Kindness works people, let's learn to live in peace and harmony.
It’s so nice when someone come back just to say “thank you” ❤❤👏🏾👏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🏅
These people have a beautiful soul.
I can relate to this, sometimes back going to HongKong airport from mainland someone paid my bus fare because I didn't have local currency,unfortunately he refused to give me his contacts. Good job Jamaica.
You can expect much more from Jaoanese....
Japanese have some next level dedication and sense of service... Probably unparalleled by any other country.
I don't think that's Japanese, from the appearance and accents
@@IlhamFadhlir She is half Japanese and half Serbian and born in Japan, should be in west of Japan (Kansai area) because of her Japanese accent.
The female athlete was Indian and she thanked the truck drivers from her village who made sure she got to the training center to train. The male athlete a Jamaican thanked a Serbian volunteer who helped him to get to his race on time. Do not exclude these people, their deeds and their hearts which had nothing to do with being Japanese because none of them were. These were exceptional people with great hearts and should be acknowledged as such. Not knocking the Japanese people but this was not about them.
@@jay_ferry5165 According to news report in Japan, she is not Serbian nor volunteer. she is japanese and was born and living in japan, and her mother is japanese and father is Seribian. she is a dispatched staff from japanese travel agent, which name is "近畿日本ツーリスト" as we can see the name from her uniform. In their conversation, she speaks some japanese language fluently. for example, when she saw the gold medal, she said "えっ、えっ、すごーい", "やば、やば" which is common informal language in japanese, especially for young girls. besides her english pronunciation is typical engllish that japanese pronounce.
It's the only positive news I hv seen today Thanks
Awesome. I am also impressed because he thank her for helping him.
Wonderful and grateful Mirabai ... It shows the humility of the person .... 🙏🙏🙏

What a blessing to have had the volunteer come across his path at a pivotal crossroad moment. To the unsung hero's that are the truck drivers that helped the Indian medalist, very honoring as she would be blessed due to the hierarchy nature of women in indian culture. Bless all those that have untold stories of unselfishness to help all athletes, starting with the parents or those that had none?
AWESOME. LOTS OF LOVE AND BLESSINGS TO THE VOLUNTEER WHO HELP TO CREATE HISTORY TO THE GOLD MEDALISTS. N GRAND SALUTE TO THE GOLD MEDALISTS WHO WENT BACK N GAVE SUCH HEART WARMING GRATITUDE. GOD BLESS EVERYONE. IN THIS CRITICAL SITUATION WE STILL HAVE KIND HEARTED HUMAN BEINGS IN ANGEL FORMS.🤗😊🇮🇳❤

We should always help selflessly without thinking about the outcome, and see the magic.
