00:00The real breadwinner we're looking for is number 2, Mark Henry Pipin!
00:07Hi Mark!
00:09Where are you a nurse?
00:11I'm an OFW nurse, to be specific.
00:14Just like Bambi, the character in the movie, he's also an OFW.
00:18What country are you from?
00:19I used to be from Saudi, Qatar.
00:22So now, I moved to Brunei.
00:24Brunei.
00:26What do nurses in the Middle East earn?
00:28Because London is big, right?
00:30Yes.
00:31It's different.
00:32In my job, to be specific, I'm an occupational health nurse.
00:36Oh, not in a hospital?
00:37Yes, not in a hospital.
00:39In a company?
00:40Yes, in a company.
00:41So basically, the income is almost the same.
00:45The difference is...
00:46Almost the same where?
00:48For the OFWs working in hospitals.
00:51Okay.
00:52The only difference between an occupational health nurse like me is...
00:57I don't have to pay taxes.
00:59Okay.
01:00My food is free.
01:01My bed is free.
01:03I don't have to think about spending anything.
01:05I get my salary net because...
01:08That's better.
01:09Because your company is paying for it.
01:11Yes.
01:12Oh.
01:13Because my work environment is in the middle of the sea.
01:19Oh.
01:21Ariel became a patient.
01:23Sometimes I see her.
01:24She's always wearing jeans.
01:26She's not a bottle of gin.
01:28She's hiding in the sea.
01:29So, it's big.
01:31Because...
01:32The salary is high.
01:33Yes.
01:34The salary is high, right?
01:36Compared to the nurses in the Philippines, right?
01:38Yes.
01:39Because the nurses in the Philippines are good, but the salary is also high.
01:44Like the teachers, right?
01:46So...
01:47The job is hard.
01:48The care of the nurse in the Philippines is different.
01:50I had an ER in London.
01:51It's different.
01:52Even if you just get blood,
01:54the nurse will make you feel comfortable before you get blood.
01:58That's a Filipino nurse.
02:00It's different.
02:01It's different.
02:02Because here, you have to pay first before you get treated.
02:07Right?
02:08Yes.
02:09But our nurses are really...
02:10All of our OFWs that we send abroad are proud
02:17because the service they provide is different.
02:19And they are acknowledged by other races.
02:21Yes.
02:22The best people in the medical field are the Filipinos.
02:25Filipinos.
02:26Long live!
02:27Hospitals, right?
02:28I watched something today.
02:30She's famous now.
02:32A Filipino nurse in a show...
02:36I forgot the name of the...
02:38A nurse in a show.
02:39Her role is good.
02:40She's a Filipino nurse.
02:42Ah, Nico.
02:43Nico...
02:44Yes, but I think her name is Nico.
02:46Yes, I think her name is Nico.
02:47She's an artist.
02:48She's really good.
02:49Yes, she's really good.
02:50And they have a lot of Filipinos in the nurse hospital.
02:54Anyway.
02:55So, how's your family?
02:56How many people do you live with?
02:58In totality, there are five of us.
03:01Five?
03:02Six of you.
03:03You're with six people.
03:04So, how's the state of your life now because of your pursuit?
03:09Somehow, I can say that there's a big difference 10 years ago.
03:14Because 10 years ago, how was your life?
03:1710 years ago, it was a struggle.
03:19Because my father passed away.
03:22I'm the only male in the family.
03:25All of them are females.
03:26At first, I had to help my mother.
03:31She was a housewife.
03:33My brother was a factory worker.
03:36So, I was able to do it.
03:37Even though my income was small in the Philippines, but...
03:41You had a lot of help.
03:42Yes.
03:43That's why...
03:44That's why in 2014, I decided to go abroad.
03:50Because my mother passed away.
03:53She's old now.
03:56My brother didn't graduate from high school.
04:00It's hard in the Philippines.
04:03If you don't finish in the Philippines, it's really hard to go through.
04:09You need a diploma.
04:11If you hold your diploma, you can go anywhere.
04:15But if you don't, you're nothing.
04:19So, you went abroad to work?
04:21Yes.
04:23I went abroad to work.
04:24You haven't graduated yet.
04:26I had two courses.
04:28My father was still alive.
04:29They taught me Computer System Design and Programming.
04:34They wanted me to take a two-year vocational course.
04:37Then, my father passed away.
04:38Unfortunately, it wasn't enough.
04:41It wasn't enough.
04:44I was already two years old.
04:45I already had a diploma.
04:47But it wasn't enough in the Philippines.
04:50Yeah.
04:51Because there was an opportunity to be promoted.
04:54I had a clerical job for three years.
04:58I was going to be promoted, but the head office was blocking me.
05:02Because the position, although your qualification is qualified for the position,
05:09but then, your papers are not.
05:12Okay.
05:13So, you studied twice.
05:15You finished your first computer-related course.
05:18Yes.
05:19Then, you did nursing.
05:20Yes.
05:21Is that why you did nursing to go abroad?
05:24I did nursing because I didn't want to repeat what happened to my father.
05:29In case of emergency, I hoped that somehow…
05:31You had a medical knowledge.
05:33There was a little struggle.
05:34I hoped that even if we did CPR,
05:38you wouldn't think twice to run to the hospital because you have an emergency fund.
05:45You have connections.
05:46Yes.
05:48When you went abroad, your family was struggling.
05:53Little by little, we were able to recover.
05:55Because my second sibling went abroad first before me.
06:00Then, in 2015, I went abroad in 2014.
06:05In 2015, we were just talking.
06:11She asked me,
06:12Am I going to be like this for the rest of my life?
06:14She was a DH in other countries.
06:17DH?
06:18Dating Holdaper?
06:19No.
06:20Domestic Helper.
06:21Ah, Domestic Helper.
06:22Because our neighbor was a DH.
06:23Dating Holdaper.
06:24But now, she has a factory.
06:26She has a new house.
06:27Yes.
06:28She stole everything.
06:29She sold everything.
06:32She asked herself,
06:33Am I going to be a domestic helper for the rest of my life?
06:34Yes.
06:35Because she is also struggling.
06:36Yes.
06:37That's why you decided to help her.
06:38I will help her.
06:39That's why you went abroad to be a nurse.
06:41Yes.
06:42Because it's a better opportunity.
06:43Yes.
06:44So, my question earlier,
06:45the state of your life now,
06:47you said it's different from 10 years ago
06:49because life is easier now?
06:52It reached a point where it's better now.
06:55That's why the trials do not end.
07:00In 2019, my second sibling had an accident.
07:03They have already graduated,
07:04my second sibling and the one who followed me.
07:08So, I feel that at that time,
07:12I feel that at that time,
07:13hey, it's almost time.
07:15She's almost a graduate.
07:16She can already help you.
07:18Yes.
07:19That's why she had an accident.
07:20Yes.
07:21So, my sibling's ascension was delayed.
07:24Because if everyone will ascend,
07:26it will be easier to help.
07:27Yes.
07:28And she can also rest.
07:29Correct.
07:30She has a body.
07:31She also has savings.
07:32That's why the savings will go to the medical needs of your sibling.
07:38So, it's like...
07:39You're running out.
07:40You're running out.
07:41You're running out.
07:42You're running out.
07:43But, that's why I did it.
07:46Because I don't want it to happen
07:47that I have to think twice before I run out of money.
07:49Yes.
07:50My sibling is alive.
07:52I said, I'll just earn the money.
07:53Yes.
07:54But in my first year,
07:56as of W,
07:57I suddenly thought,
07:59when will I graduate?
08:03Where?
08:05To be a breadwinner.
08:09I think I can hear something.
08:10Okay.
08:12Okay.
