An OFW Certified Proud Pinay!
In Singapore, an Overseas Filipino Worker (OFW) showed her honesty for returning a wallet containing large amount of money to an Indonesian national. The owner was in Singapore accompanying her son for a surgery.
Maritess Galam, 33 years old working in Singapore as head waitress at Imperial Restaurant. She found a gold wallet inside the rest room of Vivo Shopping Mall. When she inspected the wallet, it contained S$16,600 or PhP485,08. According to her, “Di mo talaga pag-iinteresan kasi lumang-luma na, naagnas na, at sira na. Flat din sya.”
Maritess Galam and the shopping mall manager find the owner and later returned it. The Indonesian mother was deeply thankful to her honesty.
Her story was also featured in a Chinese magazine in Singapore.
Indeed, one inspiring story for all of us. Especially to those Filipino working overseas. “Iba ang Pinoy sabi nga, lalo ang mga OFW natin, hardworking, self-sacrificing, and honest.”
Maritess Galam, if you read this, we want you to know that your fellow kababayan’s are very proud of you! Isa kang magandang ehemplo sa ating mga Bagon Bayani.
Pinagmamalaki ka ng mga OFW’s at buong bayan natin (i hope Malou Fernandez too!).
