That's cool. Passenger, in his own capacity should award CAA porter for 25K.

It's for the passenger to decide, not you. Some reward is okay, but we should not promote a culture where people do what they must do in anticipation of a monetary reward. People should know they cannot 'steal' what is others'. That money belonged to the passenger, and was rightfully returned to him. The porter does not deserve a penny out of it, no matter how poor he might be. He should be praised for his honesty and integrity as much as possible.

First try looking at the corrupt situation that is prevailing in Pakistan. People like him in Pakistan are island in sea of corruption. They should be recognized and awarded as they have gone against the norm of society and as you suggested being parsimonious or scrooge would be the last thing any one should do to rightly recognize him.

And off course it is my suggestion only, no body is obliged to do that.
