00:00 Here we have the lucky ones,
00:03 the ones we love the most,
00:05 the ones who are sending QR codes everyday.
00:07 They are our beneficiaries for today.
00:09 G. Sagedli.
00:11 Picture, please.
00:13 We already know them.
00:15 There!
00:17 Rustom Padilla.
00:19 Rustom Bakor.
00:21 From Camiguin.
00:23 There!
00:25 Hi, Rustom!
00:27 How are you?
00:29 Rustom, where are you now?
00:31 Camiguin, right?
00:33 I used to be in Camiguin.
00:35 Now, I'm in Dubai.
00:37 Near FW.
00:39 Wow!
00:41 But when you were sending QR codes,
00:43 you were in Camiguin.
00:45 Yes, Camiguin is my hometown.
00:47 In Mambahaw.
00:49 When did you go to Dubai?
00:51 Actually,
00:53 I'm in Dubai now.
00:55 When?
00:57 Last August.
00:59 Wow!
01:01 What are you doing in Dubai?
01:03 I'm just having fun.
01:05 Because we know
01:07 the situation there in the Philippines.
01:09 Amy, I want you.
01:11 How are you having fun?
01:13 Just like
01:15 other Filipinos
01:17 in Dubai.
01:19 That's right.
01:21 First of all, it's a culture shock.
01:23 It's my first time.
01:25 I will share it with other countries.
01:27 It's not just
01:29 preparation.
01:31 You need to be
01:33 emotionally and mentally prepared.
01:35 I like that.
01:37 Emotionally prepared.
01:39 Emotionally ready.
01:41 Why?
01:43 Tell us about
01:45 what Filipinos abroad are going through.
01:47 Emotionally.
01:49 You said emotionally.
01:51 Yes, because
01:53 if you leave the Philippines,
01:55 you will be far from your family.
01:57 The number one enemy
02:01 is your sadness.
02:03 You need to be strong
02:05 so that
02:07 you can survive
02:09 like during Christmas,
02:11 you are far from your family.
02:13 New Year.
02:15 But,
02:17 you can overcome it.
02:19 Even me,
02:21 I'm not religious,
02:23 but I pray
02:25 everyday
02:27 that every waking up is a blessing.
02:29 That's why
02:31 that's also
02:33 what we need to do.
02:35 No matter how hard it is here,
02:37 when I go here, it's so hot.
02:39 I will walk outside
02:41 because
02:43 if you look for a company
02:45 that you can depend on,
02:47 it's so hot.
02:49 Sometimes,
02:51 you don't realize that
02:53 your clothes
02:55 can withstand the sweat.
02:57 But, it's okay.
02:59 Gustong, how did you celebrate Christmas?
03:01 You said that you are a soloist.
03:03 Do you have other companions?
03:05 How do our countrymen
03:07 celebrate Christmas?
03:09 Christmas, New Year.
03:11 There are
03:13 Filipino communities
03:15 in other places
03:17 or in the center.
03:19 But, the occasion of my work
03:21 is far from
03:23 the center.
03:25 My companions here are
03:27 different races. They are not Christians.
03:29 They don't have Christmas,
03:31 the occasion that we celebrate
03:33 every year.
03:35 You've been there for 6 months,
03:37 brother Rusto.
03:39 Do you have a wife?
03:41 Yes. I'm taking care of my wife,
03:43 Mylene, and she's busy
03:45 watching TV.
03:47 Where is Mylene?
03:49 She's in Bulong and Sursugon.
03:51 Oh, Sursugon.
03:53 Sursugon people are beautiful.
03:55 I know someone there.
03:57 Who is it?
03:59 Daini.
04:01 Sursugon people are beautiful.
04:03 Do you have a child?
04:05 Do you have a niece?
04:07 Yes, I do.
04:09 She's one of the reasons
04:11 why I came here.
04:13 We've been married for 8 years
04:15 and we're still not married.
04:17 What challenges do you face?
04:21 Why can't you get married?
04:23 My wife has a fever.
04:25 But, we both have a doctor.
04:27 We don't have a fever.
04:29 It's just a matter of time.
04:31 It's just our age.
04:33 How old is your wife?
04:35 How old is your wife?
04:37 She's 38.
04:39 Oh, she can still get married.
04:41 Yes, she can.
04:43 She's still young.
04:45 She's still young.
04:47 She needs to be treated.
04:49 It's normal.
04:51 It's a cost.
04:53 It's not a big deal.
04:55 She needs to be treated.
04:57 Does your wife work?
04:59 Does your wife work?
05:01 She works from home.
05:03 What does she do?
05:05 What does she do?
05:07 She works at
05:09 a call center.
05:11 A call center.
05:13 At Sorsogon?
05:15 She's at Sorsogon now.
05:17 She's at Kabiti.
05:19 Kabiti.
05:21 Imus.
05:23 Are you a kid?
05:25 Yes, I'm already an adult.
05:27 So, I'm the adult.
05:29 Kabiti is for you.
05:31 We're talking about
05:33 back to the 80s.
05:35 But,
05:37 what did you do?
05:39 What did you do there?
05:41 Did you earn anything?
05:43 Sometimes,
05:45 it's sad
05:47 when you're a first timer here
05:49 and you don't have an UAE experience.
05:51 The company gives you an entry level.
05:53 But,
05:55 we were discarded.
05:57 We were also looking for...
05:59 Who did you work for?
06:01 Were you a housekeeper?
06:03 Were you staying at your employer's house?
06:05 At my employer's house,
06:07 there was no accommodation.
06:09 I was staying at a shared accommodation.
06:11 That's why it was hard
06:13 to stay here.
06:15 Because in one room,
06:17 there are different people.
06:19 How many people?
06:21 Per head or per room?
06:23 Per head.
06:25 How many per head?
06:27 In one room, there are 5 occupants.
06:29 In one bed,
06:31 there are 800
06:33 other homes.
06:35 So, if you multiply 15,
06:37 it's 12,000 monthly.
06:39 12,000?
06:41 It's like a condo.
06:43 But here...
06:45 Do you earn
06:47 anything now?
06:49 Because you've been here
06:53 for 6 months.
06:55 Yes.
06:57 It's a bit...
06:59 It's a bit of a break-even.
07:01 Because
07:03 the entry limit
07:05 is not that high.
07:07 But it's a battle.
07:09 God has mercy.
07:11 Where do you get the expenses?
07:13 For sure, there's a budget.
07:15 In our country,
07:17 we borrow money
07:19 20 times.
07:21 That's our income.
07:23 In the Philippines,
07:25 if you don't have a business,
07:27 you can only
07:29 hire employees.
07:31 It's really hard.
07:33 So, we're a bit of a loser.
07:35 We borrowed money
07:37 to come here.
07:39 How much?
07:41 How much did you borrow?
07:43 We borrowed 100,000.
07:47 150,000?
07:49 100,000.
07:51 100,000?
07:53 Yes.
07:55 For the visa,
07:57 accommodation,
07:59 and also
08:01 the expenses here.
08:03 The standard of living is expensive.
08:05 That's one of the things
08:07 I'll value.
08:09 I have plans to grow.
08:11 Not just financially,
08:13 but emotionally and mentally prepared.
08:15 Actually, that's why I asked.
08:17 Because the people watching
08:19 are really happy
08:21 in their own homes.
08:23 I'm sure
08:25 they're inquiring
08:27 about my preparation.
08:29 What should I prepare?
08:31 Where should I live?
08:33 Because what you did,
08:35 Rustom, was really a good idea.
08:37 Right?
08:39 You really did it.
08:41 You borrowed 100,000.
08:43 If you go there,
08:45 you'll taste the wealth.
08:47 Yes.
08:49 That's it.
08:51 You also borrowed sugar.
08:53 And the saddest thing
08:55 is the sadness.
08:57 Oh.
08:59 I know that sadness.
09:01 In the 90s,
09:03 we loved to go to shows in Japan.
09:05 Our shows were one week
09:07 or two weeks.
09:09 But one time, I went for a month.
09:11 It was really crazy.
09:13 Because you're far from your family.
09:15 Even though I'm a single son,
09:17 I miss my mom.
09:19 I miss my dad.
09:21 And you're alone in your room.
09:23 Sometimes, you're alone.
09:25 You're really busy.
09:27 You're just watching Rupi.
09:29 That's the hardest part.
09:31 Going home from work.
09:33 When you're alone in your room.
09:35 But you'll just drown.
09:37 You'll just get stronger.
09:39 But Rustom,
09:41 you just have to be strong.
09:43 You're already there.
09:45 You just have to keep fighting.
09:47 God has mercy.
09:49 Those who work hard,
09:51 God gives them.
09:53 Just a little bit.
09:55 How will you
09:57 get back to where you were
09:59 in a few days, weeks, months?
10:01 Just keep fighting,
10:03 brother Rustom.
10:05 When are you planning to have a baby?
10:07 You're already 8 years old.
10:09 As soon as.
10:11 You really have to work hard
10:13 to go home.
10:15 Yes.
10:17 How much will you pay for your debt?
10:19 I haven't started yet.
10:23 I'll just start.
10:25 You'll just start paying?
10:27 Okay.
10:29 You'll just start paying?
10:31 We're looking for people
10:33 who work hard like you.
10:35 So that we can give you
10:37 a G in Hawa.
10:39 You'll see later, because you're hardworking.
10:41 You're joining the QR code everyday.
10:43 You're scanning.
10:45 Here it is.
10:47 You're already paying?
10:49 You're already paying?
10:51 You're already paying?
10:53 You're already paying?
10:55 You're already paying?
10:57 Okay.
10:59 First, we have a gift for you.

12:33 you're still together.
12:35 It's a sacrifice.
12:37 Thank you so much.

12:41 Don't give up.
12:43 God is merciful.
12:45 Take care.
