Shenzhen introduces Good Samaritan law

New regulation will protect people who render assistance to those in need and deter dishonest 'victims' who see a chance for easy money

The mainland's first Good Samaritan law comes into effect today in Shenzhen, a fresh effort by the government to change public attitudes towards helping others .

The new laws absolve people who render assistance from any liability arising from their efforts, unless they clearly commit "major faults" in the process.
