Ay, wala po rin ito po. Anak-anak na siya eh.
00:55.2
Kumusta po yung anak niya na hospital na po? Okay na po?
01:02.5
Why you can't come here and meet me?
01:04.5
Why are you hiding?
01:06.5
Where is your heart?
01:08.0
Where is your feeling?
01:12.6
Ako po ang anak ng kaibigan ni Uncle Simon na dumulog dito sa hashtag pabitag mo ni Sir Ben Tulfo para humingi ng tulong
01:24.7
para mahuli itong naloko kay Uncle Simon na si Ruth.
01:30.8
Nung time na nakilala nila is yun yung nadapa siya na call tapos ang tumulong itong si Ruth Ann.
01:37.3
That time kasama niya yung asawa niya, asawa ni Uncle Simon.
01:40.8
So nabaitan sila dito kay Ruth Ann hanggang sa nakuha daw yung loob.
01:45.8
Nagsimula ito yung sa unang pagpapahiram ni Uncle ano eh, yung na-hospital daw yung nanay niya.
01:51.8
Then yung second time, yung daughter naman.
01:53.8
Hanggang sa sumunod-sunod na yung mga iba-ibang dahilan.
01:58.3
I hope Sir Ben can help me to solve this problem.
02:04.3
I'm far away from Singapore to Philippines because of this girl.
02:10.3
And hope all Filipinos don't get scammed by this girl.
02:18.3
Kasama naman natin ngayon dito ay si Pinky.
02:21.3
Pinky naman ano okay.
02:22.3
Let me talk to Pinky.
02:23.3
Pinky, kaano-ano niyo si Simon?
02:26.3
Paano niyong nakilala niya?
02:27.3
Nakilala, dinala mo rito sa amin at sino nagsabi sa kanya?
02:31.3
Tumawag po yung mother ko. Sabi,
02:33.3
Pinky, may pupunta dyan na kaibigan namin ni Papa mo dito sa Singapore.
02:38.3
Baka matulungan natin, ay lapit natin kasi makakatulong sa kanya.
02:42.3
So unap mong naisip.
02:45.3
Tatanong ko lang ano, parang medyo nakikinig siya sa atin.
02:47.3
Paano niyo nakilala to? Kasama niya yung kanyang misis nung muntik siyang himatayin sa mall.
02:52.3
Base sa kwento niya, nasa hawker center sila. Yung kainan po sa Singapore yan.
02:57.3
Ang tawag po nila doon is hawker center.
03:02.3
Kainan po yan, mga puro kainan.
03:05.3
You exchanged phone number?
03:06.3
Phone number, yes. I buy her a drink.
03:08.3
And you bought her a drink, okay. So after that, you became friends?
03:12.3
Did you have every time having a date with her or maybe lunch or dinner maybe or snack?
03:18.3
No. For this one year, the most I see him, less than eight times.
03:23.3
Eight times? Less than eight times?
03:24.3
Yeah. Most of the time, she is asking for money.
03:28.3
Did you have every time to go out and did you have any date or anything like that?
03:34.3
Gurado ka ba na itong si Ruth Anna, binigay niyang picture ngayon, hinahanap niya eh talagang OFW or pumupunta lang ng Singapore parang tumatambay sa mga mall pero hindi naman talaga mga OFW at nakakuha sila ng mga customer doon, di ka?
03:49.3
Kasi base po sa kwento niya, nag-report siya sa police sa Singapore.
03:54.3
Nalaman nila through MOM na nag-work naman doon.
03:59.3
Mm-hmm. MOM, nag-work doon. So saan daw nag-work?
04:03.3
As maid daw po eh. Maid uncle, yeah? This one is maid.
04:07.3
Paano sinabi niya na maid?
04:09.3
She's a maid. Maid for some others, not my maid.
04:12.3
Okay. So okay. Can I ask you, have you visited her employer maybe in the apartment or?
04:19.3
So everything that she told you, you believed?
04:23.3
Then we normally wait outside either Lucky Plaza or Gimo Market, ask for money.
04:28.3
Okay. That's where you're meeting place and then that's where you hand over the money?
04:31.3
Yes. And some, I sent her oxygen for the kid also, for the children, for the daughter also.
04:38.3
May number ba kayo? Do you have a number of this Ruth Ann? What was she called?
04:42.3
Yes. I got three, two handphone in Singapore number and Philippines.

Pag paano nandito naman sila, wala naman akong, wala po. Wala po akong naalala ng ganun.
06:52.3
Nandito ako sa Pinas ngayon para bisitahin sana siya para magdala ng regalo. May relo, alahas at saka pasalubong sa inyo.
07:02.3
Hindi po ako dumatanggap ng paglubog po.
07:04.3
Saan po namin, saan ko po makita si Ruth Ann para magkwentuhan na ko eh?
07:11.3
Hindi po naman po. Hindi ko nga po alam kung nasaan siya. Hindi ko po alam.
07:16.3
Gusto niyo po malaman ang totoo?
07:19.3
Gusto niyo malaman kung sino kausap niyo?
07:22.3
Hindi po. Hindi ko po alam.
07:25.3
O. Gusto niyo malaman, makilala?
07:28.3
Opo. Kung sino po kayo?
07:30.3
Ah. Ako po si Ben Tulfo, si Bitag.
07:33.3
Kaya po ako tumawag dahil nandito po yung, ah, tumulong po siya sa anak ninyo.
07:38.3
Dahil, ah, nagpapadala po siya ng mga messages na yung may sakit daw, nakusos, makikita po yan.
07:44.3
Hinahanap niya po si, ah, si Ruth Ann. Eh, hindi ba kayo nag-aalala na parang nag, ah, nag-effort pumunta sa pangga dito sa stasyon namin ngayon?
07:53.3
At, ah, nag, ah, nagmama, nag... Gusto ka na makausap?
07:58.3
At sabi ko po sa inyong totoo, wala po akong alam yung saan ginawa ng anak ko.
08:03.3
Kung ito anak ko po siya, talagang hindi ko po alam. Paka nasa gustong inyong na po siya.
08:09.3
Kasi kung ako ang magulang, yung sinasabing niyong na,
08:12.3
...anak, hindi ko kayang gawin yun sa anak ko.
08:16.3
Ah, nakikita ko naman po hindi niyo kahit sino naman. Pero bakit nagawa po ni, ano, na...
08:21.3
Hindi ko alam, hindi ko alam kasi na hindi na po, ah, hindi ako magtatanong.
08:27.3
Ayaw kong may malamang iba dahil mahirap kong mahirap.
08:32.3
Sa pasensya na po kayo at mahingi ng paumanhin kung sakaling hindi pa gagawin kong makilala.
08:36.3
Kasi sinusubukan ko baka sakaling makausap si Ruth Ann.
08:40.3
Yung kasalanan po ng anak niyo hindi niyo kasalanan eh.
08:45.3
Kung alimbawa, kung alimbawa, kung kayo na lang kung ano ang dami niyo, basta kung,
08:51.3
...alimbawa, kung mahuli niyo, magpakulong niyo, ipaalam niyo lang po sa akin para may alam naman po ko kung ang manguwaw sa anak ko.
08:59.3
Bakit po ganun ang pananlitan niyo? Hindi po maganda ang relasyon ninyo?
09:04.3
Sabi niyo, may kasalanan, ano.
09:07.3
Gusto niyo pong...
09:09.3
Nay, sandali lang ano. Simon, do you wanna talk to the mother?
09:12.3
Can I ask her whether your granddaughter, young girl, 4 years old, still alive?
09:19.3
O, tinatanong niya kung yan daw ang apo mo na 4 na taong eh buhay pa ba? Yung tinulungan niya raw. Siya si Simon, nasa Singapore.
09:27.3
Buhay po. Buhay po yung sinasabi niya ngayon kahit nakakuma to. Dahil ako hindi kumayang gawin sa anak ko yun.
09:34.3
4 na taon po yung sinasabi. She's alive.
09:38.3
But the mother says, she doesn't really know exactly what her daughter is saying. Probably her daughter, she's ashamed.
09:45.3
Yeah, I say, as a daughter, own blood. Can say, now I carry the ash. Can you help me to buy? Need money to send under the heavy rain.
09:55.3
The daughter die, the ash she carry.
09:59.3
Yeah, the ashes of the 4 years old.
10:02.3
Nagdala raw ito ng mga abo ng 4 na taong gulang na anak niya. Pinakita?
10:07.3
Did she try to show you the ashes?
10:09.3
No, only the message.
10:11.3
The message. E nagpakita raw sa mensahe na yung kanyang 4 na taong gulang anak ay nasa urn daw ata na parang abo yung parang crinimate?
10:21.3
I feel sad, yes. My teeth will come down. I used my efforts so hard.
10:25.3
Okay. Naawa raw si Simon dahil nakita niya, pinakita raw sa video, picture na, ebay nasa abo na raw na parang crinimate daw ata yung 4 na taon.
10:36.3
Yun ang tinatanong niya. Kaya kung buhay, okay naman. So now the 4 year old is alive.
10:45.3
So it's not really true.
10:46.3
So you're cheating me. I mean as the mother, own blood, how can curse your daughter dying because of money?
10:53.3
Okay. Sinasabi niya paano daw nagagawa ng isang ina dahil sa pera, pati ba naman yung anak daw ay dinadamay.
11:01.3
Pag sakaling makausap niya po siya, sabihin na lang po siguro.
11:05.3
Siguro kasi may nagrareklamo, hindi naman siguro maglalaan ng panahon na pumunta rito para lamang hanapin si Ruth dahil sa palagi niya nasa Singapore ba siya o nasa probinsya siya?
11:16.3
Wala na po. Hindi siya na lang poin siguro.
11:19.3
She doesn't know where they were about but she doesn't even know but apparently she's angry with her daughter lying to her.
11:26.3
And she's saying that if she ever get caught, we'll just have to let the mom know what you intend to do if you want to file a complaint. That's exactly what the mother's saying now.
11:35.3
Yung retirement money na naipo niya, Taxi Driver Singapore, eh ginawa niya raw itong pagtulong para kay Ruth Ann.
11:43.3
Sa tuwing ano, kaya medyo nagpadala po siya ng ano na, umabot ng...
11:50.3
Yes. Singapore, 57,000.
11:53.3
57,000 Singaporean dollar, 2 million pesos po yan. Nanay, eh yun pong dahil sa awa niya kay Ruth Ann.
12:04.3
Pinaalam po namin, alam ko po hindi niyo po kasalanan, ginagawa po ng anak ninyo. Mukhang masama pong loob ninyo, parang naiiya kanina nung sinabi ko na parang sinabi na patay na ata, na nakremate, inalagay ata sa iyong abo ng kanyang 4 years old. Anong palagay niyo, Nay? Pag maganyang ginagawa ng anak natin?
12:22.3
Hindi po po. May hindi tayo.
12:25.3
Sige, Nay. Wala na po kaming masabing ano. We can't squeeze anything anymore because the mother doesn't have any idea where her daughter is.
12:34.3
And I really felt sorry about this.
12:36.3
No, it's okay. Anyway, try your best to help me already. I really appreciated your service.
12:41.3
Well, I did the best that I can to help you but apparently we can also blame the mother because the mother is just so confused and doesn't really know where her daughter is and probably ashamed what her daughter did to you. And I'm thankful that you came to her office accompanied by her, by your friend.
13:03.3
How do you talk to each other? English?
13:06.3
Okay. Go ahead and talk to Ruth, maybe.
13:09.3
You challenge me to come to Philippines and meet me in Supreme Court. Now I come to Bita. Why you can't come here and meet me? If you got the guts to scam my money, we come and challenge here and clarify everything. Okay? Why are you hiding? Why? Where? Take your boyfriend and put on your heart. Please. Help you. Nearly 1 year.
13:32.3
Php 57,000. Okay? I cannot be beaten by the loan shark and admitted hospital. Where is your heart? Where is your feeling? Where? You are evil. No talk.
13:43.3
Okay. I will call you Ruth. Ruth, wherever you are, whoever your friend is, it's not good to see your face and it's easy to find you if you were an OFW. You will find out. Maybe you call us if you have time, right? Because I don't want to add to your problem.
13:59.3
So, show yourself. Call.
14:01.3
I'm looking for you, Simon. I'm calling you. We will give you a chance and I will not judge you until we hear your voice. But if you will avoid it, you will have a problem with your mother. She doesn't trust you. We will wait for a message from you because you are evil. Your mother also doesn't know where you are.
14:22.3
This is what we're going to do, Simon. There's nothing we can do. We just have to wait for, well, Ruth to probably call us back. The possibility, maybe there's a chance, slim chance that...
14:31.3
She might call you. Okay? Or do you have to wait?
14:34.3
Thank you for understanding and thank you for your patience as well.
14:36.3
I always understand you. You are helping me.
14:39.3
I really appreciate that.
14:40.3
All right. Thank you as well. Okay?
14:42.3
Yeah. At least can release my stress.
14:44.3
All right. That's good enough. As long as you let it out of your system.
14:48.3
Yeah. You see? I will suffer for one over year for my stress.
14:52.3
Okay. Let's talk downstairs some more. Okay?
14:55.3
Ito po lagi isang pampasangsumbungan. Maaaring hindi namin na solusyonan. Pero may panawagan po tayo.
15:00.3
Baka sakali. Kung kilala niyo man si Ruth, bahala na po kayo.
15:03.3
Tulong at servisyo may tatak-tatakbitag. Ako po si Ben Tulfo. Ito po, hashtag Ipabitagma.
