They have won recognition from the Turkish government and the local people.

Luo Mingwen， captain and Secretary of the CPC Committee of the Chongqing Blue Sky Rescue Team said that in the first few days of their arrival in Türkiye， aftershocks were incessant. Under such circumstances， the team members went into the ruins and even worked through the night， racing against time to save people with their professional skills.

The rescue process was arduous， but the thanks of the local people warmed the heart of every rescue team member from Chongqing. When Yang Zhijian， a member of the team， was buying food from a local store， the owner refused to take the money.
