Because of Money: Man Attacked OFW Wife With a Machete Then Hang Himself




A man hacked his OFW wife with a machete after a heated argument about the money sent by the OFW for the construction of the family's home in Sitio Green Hills, Datu Odin Sinsuat, Maguindanao. 

Leni, an OFW just returned home from working overseas and found out that the money she sent  was not used as intended and confronted her husband Landy Gunsi Paulino, 31. Unable to account where the money went, Paulino attacked his wife with a machete severing the OFWs left arm. Her father and brother were also hurt during the commotion.

Leni is working as a domestic helper just arrived only a few days ago. She has been asking her husband about the whereabout of the money and the house they are planning to build. The husband could not  give any answers as the wife patiently seek an explanation. Landy would go away instead and return home late at night.


On a Friday morning, Leni and Landy again had a confrontation about the money and the argument has become like a hellfire. Without any words, Landy pulled a machete and attacked his wife who tried to deflect the coming bolo cutting off her left arm.
The suspects father, Alberto and his brother who tried to stop Landy from further attacking Leni was also hurt.
After the incident, the suspect went outside and ended his own life by hanging himself on the nearby tree.

Chief Inspector Achmad Alibonga, police chief of Datu Odin Sinsuat, Maguindanao, said that based on the investigation they conducted, it showed that the suspect premeditated the crime and committing a suicide after it happened was a part of his plan as he already prepared a nylon rope tied on a mango tree just a few steps away from their house.
The suspect died while the 3 victims were recovering in the hospital due to sustained wounds.

Why OFWs Remain in Neck-deep Debts After Years Of Working Abroad?
From beginning to the end, the real life of OFWs are colorful indeed.  To work outside the country, they invest too much, spend a lot. They start making loans for the processing of their needed documents to work abroad.  From application until they can actually leave the country, they spend big sum of money for it.  But after they were being able to finally work abroad, the story did not just end there. More often than not, the big sum of cash  they used to pay the recruitment agency fees cause them to suffer from indebtedness.  They were being charged and burdened with too much fees, which are not even compliant with the law. Because of their eagerness to work overseas, they immerse themselves to high interest loans for the sake of working abroad. The recruitment agencies play a big role why the OFWs are suffering from neck-deep debts. Even some licensed agencies, they freely exploit the vulnerability of the OFWs. Due to their greed to collect more cash from every OFWs that they deploy, it results to making the life of OFWs more miserable by burying them in debts.  The result of high fees collected by the agencies can even last even the OFWs have been deployed abroad. Some employers deduct it to their salaries for a number of months, leaving the OFWs broke when their much awaited salary comes.  But it doesn't end there. Some of these agencies conspire with their counterpart agencies to urge the foreign employers to cut the salary of the poor OFWs in their favor. That is of course, beyond the expectation of the OFWs.   Even before they leave, the promised salary is already computed and allocated. They have already planned how much they are going to send to their family back home. If the employer would cut the amount of the salary they are expecting to receive, the planned remittance will surely suffer, it includes the loans that they promised to be paid immediately on time when they finally work abroad.  There is such a situation that their family in the Philippines carry the burden of paying for these loans made by the OFW. For example. An OFW father that has found a mistress, which is a fellow OFW, who turned his back  to his family  and to his obligations to pay his loans made for the recruitment fees. The result, the poor family back home, aside from not receiving any remittance, they will be the ones who are obliged to pay the loans made by the OFW, adding weight to the emotional burden they already had aside from their daily needs.
