Beggar Kids: To Give or Not To Give

Drawing of a happy normal kid. Hoping every kid should be given a chance to draw and not beg on the streets.
Crime does exist everywhere so is in Ermita, Manila and Roxas Boulevard particularly near the US Embassy premises. Kurukuro noticed the frequency of crimes in these areas over the past few months. Robbery aided by beggars mentioned below do not depict a cause for alarm but instead should take necessary precaution when visiting these areas. Minor thieves proliferate in the area under the supervision of adults who belonged to robbery syndicates.

Rob...Rape......and Run! (UPDATED)

News Flash!!! Copy cats on the move!!

On July 1, another dentist in Fairview, Quezon City was robbed by a man who pretended as a patient. The suspect, who was wearing a bull cap, entered the clinic, filled up the information sheet and announced the holdup. After tying up the dentist and two other companions, the suspect forcibly took cash worth PhP 17,000 (US$ 394), two laptops and a video camera. The victims said that the bull cap he was wearing was used to cover his face from being recognized by the CCTV camera installed inside the dental clinic. It was not reported if the victims were raped or molested. 

Kurukuro believes that there will be more copy cats of the famous serial dentist rapist/molester that will victimize dentists in the next few months if not arrested. This was based on Kurukuro’s crime trend analysis after a man named Richard Gamboa was arrested in Binan, Laguna Province. Copycats could be known to the main man or a high possibility that an organized group ride with the famed modus operandi.

On May 22, unidentified robbers broke into the house of a top official of a water company in Ayala Heights, Quezon City. The unidentified suspects  stole PhP 15 million (US$ 348,837) worth of cash and personal valuables while the victim and his wife were away for a few days. They entrusted the house under the care of their driver and one stay in housemaid. Police will subject the driver and maid for further investigation.


Police Findings:  
  • The robbers ransacked the third floor master bedroom and the safety vault was forcibly opened by a pick. The pick was a tool belonging to the household.
  • The suspects could have entered the master bedroom’s bathroom window.
  • The burglars could have gain access to the perimeter area of the property by scaling the 10 feet perimeter wall of the house.
  • Police noticed that there were no other signs of any forced entry anywhere in the house.
  • The perpetrators seemed to have a wide knowledge in the content of the safety vault.
  • The resident claimed that the housemaid has an access to their bedroom to clean.

Kurukuro believes that the Ayala Heights robbery incident is an inside job. As to who had done it, Kurukuro gives due respect and recognition in the ability of Philippine National Police and Ayala Heights village security in identifying and apprehending the suspects.

Kurukuro reiterates that all employers should be cautious when leaving the entire household to domestic staff only. Employers, who have long time domestic staff, have to be vigilant at all times. Although their loyalty had been proven already, collusion with criminal syndicates is a big possibility especially in this present hard time. 

Kurukuro tips to all employers

Landlines are for the exclusive use of the employers and their family members. Never allow domestic staff to answer phone calls especially if employers are not around. Explain to them that if there will be an emergency and important calls, you will get in touch with them through their mobile phones.

Employers should prohibit domestic staff from using the landline unless it is important in nature. They have their mobile phones wherein they can be contacted by their families and friends.

Explain to all your domestic staff the importance of not disclosing the personal and business affairs of their employers with their friends or family, their employer’s relatives and friends, or any visitors to the house or callers on the telephone.

Instruct domestic staff not to exchange text messages with somebody you don’t know personally.

Do not allow your domestic helpers’ family, relatives and friends into the house unless you give permission to prevent any unfavorable incident in your house.

Semana Santa Advisory

Source Pic: http://www.jimthebest.com/
Holy Week is celebrated by Christians around the world to commemorate the most important events in Christendom: death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. As the whole Philippines and Filipino people observe Lent on April 21 and 22, lawless elements are also on the move. From Holy Monday to Easter Sunday, most residents, gated communities and condominium owners, will be busy attending several religious activities in the church or will choose to be out of town to celebrate Lent. With all the residents gone out, the houses are left under the care of assigned domestic staff.

Senior citizens, housemaids, gardeners and drivers are considered the most gullible people to these robbery syndicates. Kurukuro reminds all residents and condo unit owners to be cautious and prudent in safeguarding their homes and personal valuables.

In every Holy Week observance, police authorities always face a humongous responsibility of providing security to everyone. Let us hope and pray that starting today until Easter Sunday, there will be no untoward incident will take place. Let us help Philippine National Police (PNP) officers and their men lessen the headaches they are facing this time of the year by following Kurukuro’s safety guidelines:

  1. Family adult members are encouraged to escort their senior citizen relatives at all times.
  2. Make sure to lock all your doors and windows at all times. Windows that slide up and down are normally easy to break into.
  3. Make sure that the house perimeter is well lighted. The most effective in preventing intrusion is to have a well lighted house.
  4. Secure crawl spaces, ventilation shafts, air conditioning and heating ducts and other openings. Make sure that window air conditioners are installed securely and cannot easily be removed from the outside
  5. If going out of town, ask Barangay officials and village security to check your home from time to time. Ask a relative or your trusted neighbor to keep an eye on your property while you are away. Request baranggay security officials or village mobile patrol to frequent your place. 
Safety Tips When Going to Crowded Churches
  • Source:azraelcoladilla.com
    Criminals are getting bolder. As the churches fill with people, criminals feast on these timed opportunities. Hold on to your bags and valuables while praying inside the church.
  • Avoid wearing jewelry and bringing in expensive gadgets such as cellular phone and ipods. Petty crimes like theft, cellular phone snatching and robbery are higher in this time of the year.  Do not flash your valuables when in public.
  • Church goers are discouraged to use shoulder bags and purses to avoid being snatch or rob.
  • Preferably one must go with friends or family when attending church activities like Visita Iglesia.
  • Bring just enough cash and leave your credit cards and other valuables at home.
