Oh God, just the same place where I live before.

i don;t know where sa tagbi sila nagpuyo. iyang mama nagwork sa capitol. pastilan maglisod sila unsaon pagpauli sa patayng lawas kay undocumented iyang pag-anha. you know na bitaw og au pair... i know it kay akong mga cousin au pair pud and i helped them sa ilang pagprocess..

there are lots of aupairs here using false documents.

mao na lagi ni ron, i hope the other aupairs will learn the lesson na gyud.

unsa man iya work ginger?naa man ko kaila diha sa denmark melody gales ambot  ug familiar ba mo ani....looy bya pud noh,,,,dapat katong nakabanga mao ang magpauli sa  patay lawas,,, diba?

adtin, she is an aupair.

au pair - is a French term, which means "on par" or "equal to", denoting living on an equal basis in a reciprocal, caring relationship between the host family and the children. An aupair will typically be a young woman and sometimes a young man from a foreign country who chooses to help look after the children of a host family and provide light housekeeping. The aupair is given room and board and is typically paid a weekly "pocket-money" or salary.

Im so sorry..

direct hiring ang au pair kay dili man na siya full time job, so wala na siya sa list sa POEA. kasagaran sa internet ra ang pag pangita ug host families. ang naka pait lang kay naay taga bohol nga nang sapi sa mga au pair, acting as agent. mangita kunuhay siya ug host family para sa au pair unya magpa bayad ug mahal kaayo. sa akong na hibaw-an, au pairs are paying as much as 100K or more para lang sa papel.

totally different ang au pair sa DH, adtin. light housework ra gyud ang au pair unya 5-6 hrs ra ang work.

Ms A, I have talked with the Ambassador this morning. She said, she already have her people work to assist on the remains of Dulce. She will leave for Denmark on Friday and personally talk to the host family of Dulce so they could facilitate the transfer of her remains.

Happy lives in Lolland, south of DK and this incident happened on the Northern Part. Happy is assisting in finding the friends of Dulce when the incident happened because the Ambassador wants to talk to them, too.

This incident is a reminder to all of us. We have to be careful. I just realized that I need to put reflectors on my jacket so I will be seen while walking in the road. We need it especially this winter nga permi lang ngit-ngit.

Huy hala ako sad diay Ger... hinuon di man ko mag walking sa roadside, never gyud...

pero inig mag tabok tabok diay no

pwede man ipa tapot ug velcro Ger...

ill do it TODAY asap!!!

Thank you sa dugang update Ginger... please keep us posted sa mga new updates...

Bella, inig tabok diay. Bisan ug dili highway. Pwede man ang reflector higtan, naa pud uban naka magic tape.

My sincerest condolences to the family of Dulce. AS in, I'm really so sad about this news. I also worked as an au pair in Denmark for 2 years. It's true, we are not listed in POEA, pero we are not illegal though.

I hope na nauli na ang iyang lawas sa pinas.

kalooy ug kasayang..bataa pa kaau oi...guafa pa jud...

This is sad....my Condolence to her Family. The best thing is to cremate her dead body to avoid too much expenses...but sorry to say, this is not done or accepted in our country because they like to see her dead for the last time.  To all Pilipinas who know that late girl must have to donate for her transport back to Phils.  that is what we did when my friend died last year...instead of flowers in form of money.  If she is in working contract in Denmark, it  is the work of the Philippine Embassy to tender her remains to their Family in Tagbilaran and they must have to shoulder all those expenses. How about her employer?

Yes, it's not documented and not listed in POEA. In fact, there is a waiver being signed by the au pairs when they apply for contract at the Norwegian/Danish Embassy, that whatever happened, the Phil Government has no responsibility in whatsoever. This is because, applying for an au pair is being banned in the Phils.

Oh my!  But I think, Haze, the goodness and kindness of the Pinoys' hearts will circumvent the rules/waiver. So the Ambassador promised to help, Haze, right?

YEs, of course! After all, we're still Filipino Citizens.

She was very nice, Graz. She even cut my call kay sya kuno mo tawag naku para dili dako akong bayran.

Makahilak man sad ta ani, Haze!  Salamat kaayo sa inyong pag pursige na mahatagan ug tabang si Dulce! 

Chikadora ang Ambassador, Graz. She even remembered where we met. But, I don't think she will remember how I look like.

I happen to know her driver, also a boholano. What a small world!

Sorry, is this already?

Below is the reply to my e-mail to the Philippine Ambassador to Denmark. Thank God, Dulce will be coming home.

Dear Mr. Ligalig,

Thank you for the information about the late Ms. Dulce Acedo.

As I write this response to your email, the Embassy has already contacted  her employer and the police in Denmark.  The Embassy has also made a report to the Department of Foreign Affairs in Manila on the case, and you might wish to contact the same for more details.

Please rest assured that the Embassy shares your concern and that it will extend all necessary assistance, including in the shipment of her remains, to ease the pain of the family of the late Ms. Acedo. 

Thank you for your concern.

Sincerely,
For the Ambassador:
Evelyn D. Austria-Garcia

Thanks a lot, Mike and also Hazel and to the other people who are helping Dulce's family!  God bless your heart!

During the dying hours of my father, Hazel was with me over the phone.

C2H4, I read the word two being highlighted.

Mike and Ms BeLLe...

I didn't mean anything by it...kamo jud 

Makasab-an kong Waray ani...

I only meant, two of a kind kay duha man sila...maong two...

bitaw, seriously,

thank you Ms Ginger and Mr Admin for all that you did to help Dulce and her family...

I was thankful to Hazel Mike that he was there with you even through phone lang during one of your trying times of your life.

Ms. C2, howdy?

Hello Ms Grazie,

I am doing good though extremely tired (pero dokdok lang gihapon)

Nahuwasan na ka sa imong Thanksgiving party nga ming last ug pila ka days?

hehehe

Wala pa jud, Ms. C2 coz I am still 5 or so lbs heavier than pre-thanksgiving.

hala, OT na ta!

Taga asa man ni sa Bohol si Dulce Acedo?

Far away there in the sunshine are my highest aspirations. I may not reach them but I can look up and see their beauty, believe in them, and try to follow them.

Thanks, Leo, for sharing pictures of Dulce, a beautiful Filipina!

Thanks sa mga pics ni Dulce Leo, i can only imagine...

................

Leo and mike thanks for sharing her pictures..
Unfortunately kay wala jud koy nailhan bisan usa sa iyang mga friends diha sa pic.

This is very sad jud kaayo.

This accident reminds me sa text jokes.. Kadtong  naay, "kumakain nagtetext, nabulunan patay, umiinom nagtetext, nabilaukan patay, naglalakad nagtetext, nasagasaan patay"

I think nga known kaayo ni nga text jokes, pero siguro wala gi seryoso bisan gisige forward kay joke ra lagi.

mao jud.  daghan bitaw nadisgraysa ana sige text bisan gadrive.  sang adlaw ai hapit makalagot kaayo kay dihay among nasundan gasige ug text, bisan ang iyang sakyanan gazigzag na ang dagan sa karsada.  pastilang lagota sa akong bana kay di man mi kapass, unya gadali man siya kay mowork pa, igo ra ko gihatod sa bay kay giibtan lagi ug ngipon.  pastilan tong tawhana, ug dili jud ka magbantay mabanggaan jud nimo kay mokalit ug bulhot then mohinay na pod kay mao lagi naadik sa text.

Seeing her looking so pretty and happy in her pics makes me really sad. It's hard to believe she's dead.

Ms. Dulce is so familiar to me... May she rest in peace...

Mao lagi ni giingon willsmith, nga bisan nagtarong ta ug drive, ma disgrasya gihapon tungod sa uban nga pabaya ba.

mao jud lagi, magbantay jud kanunay kay daghang tambaluslos nga drivers.  daghan jud ta bantayan.  text or call sa cell basta magdrive dili jud advisable kay delikado jud.

I received an SMS from The Philippine Ambassador this evening.

the message: We have now confirmation from the Danish Foreign Ministry that Dulce Acedo's repatriation will be funded
                    by insurance of driver.

Thanks God! At least......otherwise it might be too expensive.

Thats good.
