Cuyacut’s estranged husband, Noel Consorte was the one who coordinated with the Department of Foreign Affairs on the repatriation of his deceased wife, said Castro.

Their two daughters, Jennely and Rosemary Consorte, are Cuyacut's OWWA beneficiaries.

Hong Kong police are still investigating the killing of Cuyacut, who used to be a domestic worker but whose visa status at the time of her death was not immediately known.

A 37-year-old Gambian national reportedly called police on Apr 11 to say that he had killed Cuyacut - who he referred to as his wife ---in a unit on Pang Ching St. in Tokwawan.

The man was reportedly a torture claimant on recognizance who has been in Hong Kong since 2012.

Meanwhile, the remains of Gariando, who collapsed in her employer’s kitchen in Happy Valley on May 8 while preparing dinner, will be taken to her hometown of Hinigaran in Negros Occidental where she will be buried, said her close friend Rosamie Borromeo.

Doctors who attended to Gariando at Pamela Youde Nethersole Eastern Hospital in Chaiwan said she must have banged her head on the floor when she collapsed due to a stroke and fell into a coma. They said an x-ray revealed a skull fracture.

Gariando’s sister, Mary Grace, who is also a domestic helper in Hong Kong, escorted her remains on the flight home, said Borromeo.

Gariando, who was known to be athletic, had worked for a total of 20 years for the Lau family in Happy Valley. She is survived by husband Prospero,  a 27-year-old daughter and two granddaughters.

Pinagpala ang buhay

Posted on No comments


Bata pa ang mga anak ni Lovie ay napagkasunduan na nilang mag-asawa na mangingibang bansa siya para sa ikagaganda ng kanilang buhay. Hindi naman kasi kalakihan ang sahod ng kanyang asawa na naninilbihan sa kanilang munisipyo.

Tutol ang kanyang mga magulang sa napangasawa ni Lovie kaya nagsusumikap silang mag-asawa na pagandahin ang kanilang buhay at bigyan ng maayos na edukasyon ang kanilang mga anak.

Lumaking matatalino ang mga anak at disiplinado dahil sa maayos na pagpapalaki sa kanila ng kanilang tatay. Laging nangunguna sa klase ang dalawa nilang anak na labis niyang ikinatutuwa.

Buong pagmamalaki niyang ikinukuwento kahit sa mga mababait na amo ang mga karangalang natatanggap ng kanyang mga anak, at ipinapakita sa kanila ang napakaraming medalya, ribbon at sertipiko na natatanggap ng mga ito tuwing pagtatapos.

Ayon kay Lovie ang mga kumikinang na medalya ng mga anak ang nagsisilbing inspirasyon para lalo siyang magsikap para sa kanilang kinabukasan.

Ang isa sa mga labis na ikinatutuwa ni Lovie kamakailan ay ang pagkakatanggap ng isa sa kanyang mga anak sa Philippine Military Academy o PMA, kung saan ang mga mag-aaral ay piling pili at iskolar lahat.

"Hindi ko inaasahang makapasok sa PMA ang aking anak," sabi niya.

Napasama lang daw ito sa dalawa niyang kaibigan sa pagkukuha ng pagsusulit sa PMA dahil pangarap talaga ng mga ito na makapasok doon.

Ganoon na lang ang tuwa ng anak ni Lovie na siyang sabit lang ang pinalad na matanggap sa prestihiyosong paaaralan.

Napakabait at napakatalinong bata daw ng kanyang anak kaya kampante si Lovie na makakaya nito ang lahat ng mga pagsubok sa PMA.

Ni hindi pa nga daw ito nag girlfriend dahil gusto nitong masuklian ang kanyang pagsasakripisyo para sa kanilang pamilya.

Dahil hindi na nila pinoproblema ang pagmamatrikula ng panganay ay pinayagan na nilang mag-asawa na kumuha ng nursing, isang magastos na kurso, ang kanilang bunso.

Nakapagpatayo na rin sila ng bahay sa isang magandang subdivision sa kanilang lugar.

Call us now!

Wala na daw mahihiling pa si Novie kundi ang mapanatiling malusog ang pangangatawan nilang mag-anak.

Tunay ngang pinagpala si Lovie dahil hindi lang masaya at puno ng biyaya ang kanyang pamilya, sinuwerte pa siyang makapasok sa mga among napakabait at talagang parang kapamilya ang turing sa kanya.

Sa katunayan, kasabay siyang kumain ng pamilya ng amo, at kung ano ang kanilang kinakain ay ganoon din ang kanya.


Call now!
Ang medyo ikinakalungkot lang niya ay ang isa niyang alaga na hirap na hirap sa pag-aaral. Sinasabihan pa lang daw ito ng mga magulang na kunin ang kanyang kwaderno para mag-aral ay umaagos na ang luha ng bata dahil alam nito na mapurol ang kanyang ulo.

Tuwing may pagsusulit ay laging bagsak ang grado nito, at kung minsan pa ay itlog o zero ang nakukuha nito. Ang mas nakakalungkot sobrang talino ng kapatid nito kaya mas lalong nawawalan ng kumpiyansa sa sarili ng bata.

Hindi mapigilan ni Lovie na mag-isip na suwerte pa rin siya dahil parehong matalino ang kanyang mga anak. Ang mas mahalaga, parehong masunurin pa ang ang mga ito.

Si Lovie ay tubong Pangasinan, 51 taong gulang at kasalukuyang naninilbihan sa mga among Intsik sa New Territories – Marites Palma

Pagkatapos ng ilang buwang paninilbihan ni Liza sa dalawang pamilya ay bumagsak ang kanyang pangangatawan dahil sa sobrang dami ng kanyang trabaho.

Halos wala na siyang pahinga dahil sa paroon at parito sa dalawang bahay, dahil inobliga siya ng kanyang amo na pumunta sa kapatid nito para magtrabaho din doon. Nang hindi na kaya ng kanyang powers ang trabaho ay tumanggi na siya sa ilegal na utos ng amo, dahilan para pababain siya agad kinabukasan.

Hindi natakot si Liza dahil alam niyang labag sa batas ang inuutos ng kanyang amo, bukod pa sa hindi pagsunod nito sa mga obligasyon nito ayon sa kanilang kontrata.

Nagtungo si Liza sa isang organisasyong tumutulong sa mga dayuhang kasambahay na inaapi, at ipinakita ang lahat ng kanyang mga patunay.

Call us!

Kabilang na dito ang pagtanggi ng kanyang amo na magpatingin siya sa doktor dahil sumasakit ang kanyang dating operasyon sa dibdib.

Pero ang pinakamatindi ay ang pahirap na inabot niya dahil sa pagtatrabaho sa dalawang bahay.

Call us now!

Umaabot ng hanggang alas onse ng gabi kung matapos si Liza sa isang bahay, pero sa kanyang pagbalik sa amo ay kailangan pa rin siyang magtrabaho bago matulog.

Kinabukasan kapag natapos ang trabaho sa tinutulugang bahay ay lilipat na naman siya sa kabila.

Call now!

Bagong salta man si Liza sa Hong Kong ay buong tapang niyang kinasuhan ang kanyang amo sa tulong ng mga kaibigan at ilang kapanalig sa simbahan.

Sa boarding house ng isa sa kanyang mga kapanalig nakitira si Liza nang siya ay biglang pinababa, at nakatulong ito ng malaki para lalong tumatag ang kanyang loob.



Ayon kay Liza mabuti na lamang daw at may ganitong pribelehiyo sa kanilang simbahan dahil kahit pati pagkain sa araw-araw ay hindi niya iniintindi.

Nakatakdang magharap si Liza at ang kanyang dating amo sa ikatlong lingo ng Mayo at ngayon pa lang ay buo na ang loob ng kasambahay na ipaglaban ang lahat ng kanyang mga karapatan.

Employer rejects $113k claim of Pinay she took to China to work for friend

Obaldo's claim was heard at the Labour Tribunal in Yaumatei

By Vir B. Lumicao

An employer who fired her Filipina helper in 2015 for refusing to return to China and work for another person has refused to pay the maid’s claim for damages amounting to $113,000.

The employer, Wong San-wing, said on the second and final day of hearing of Rowena Obaldo’s claim in the Labour Tribunal today, May 21, that she would not pay up because the maid  had found a new employer after her dismissal.

But Obaldo was also terminated by her new employer after one month, Wong said.

Presiding Officer PC Lai reserved her judgment until Jun 11.

Obaldo’s damages claim is based largely on her loss of income in the four years that various authorities were investigating her complaints against Wong, employment agent C.K. Chan and mainland employer D.Z. Huang.


PRESS FOR MORE SPECIAL OFFERS!

Huang was earlier described in court as Wong’s sister but this turned out to be untrue. Wong said in her testimony that Huang was her cousin but Obaldo said they were just friends.

Wong, Chan and Huang were convicted in 2017 in a “conspiracy to defraud” case filed against them by Immigration, and were each sentenced to six months in jail, suspended for two years. They appealed their conviction in the High Court last September but lost.

Call us!

During this period, Obaldo was largely unable to work while incurring expenses, so she raised her original claim of  $70,000 to $113,000.

At the continuation of her testimony earlier in the day, Obaldo was asked by Lai what she was doing during the period July 2016 to July 1017.

Call us now!

The Filipina said she did nothing except go to the police to help in the investigation of Wong, Chan and Huang. She also went to court to give evidence as a prosecution witness against them.

But during cross-examination by Wong, the Filipina admitted that she went job-hunting in the United Arab Emirates on Jan 28 last year but returned to Hong Kong after a month.

Call now!

Then she found an employer in the New Territories on Jul 27 but was terminated after one month following an argument with her male employer.

Wong also tried to bring up Obaldo’s travel to China with her new employers, but Lai cut her short, telling her not to bring up issues that were not relevant to the present case.



Lai chided both Obaldo and Wong a number of times during the trial for unclear statements or irrelevant issues.

The four years since the China episode seemed to have taken it toll on the memory of Obaldo, 48.

In her testimony, she said she returned on a day in September and went to the boarding house of her employment agency.

The next day, she went to the Consulate to report her ordeal, then got a call from the agent who set a meeting at a McDonald’s shop with Wong, during which she was given notice of termination.

When Lai asked her again when she arrived from China, she said at first that she could not recall, but then gave the date as Sept 25.

But a document she submitted in court showed that she was given until Nov 1, 2015 on her job.

If that was so, said Lai, there would have been a six-day lapse between her return from China and the McDonald’s meeting and not just a day.

Obaldo was assisted in her case by the Consulate’s assistance to nationals section.
