ダバオ市長サラ・ドゥテルテ氏は、市役所の職員を装い、クリスマス募金と称して金銭を求められた場合、直ちに警察へ通報するよう呼び掛けている。
実業家のLouie Cabandes氏は、市環境天然資源局(CENRO)の職員と名乗る人に、普段ゴミ処理で大変な思いをしている労働者に対し、クリスマスの特別な感謝として寄付金を集めている旨の手紙を受け取ったという。Cabandes氏は、その手紙の写真を撮ろうとした瞬間に逃走されたと報告している。
その後、記者はCENROを尋ね、手紙に記載されていたゴミ処理に携わるエンジニアとトラックの運転手が実際に同局で働いているのかを確認した。
CENROの局長代理Rosemarie Lozada氏は、手紙に記載されている名前の職員はいないこと加え、全職員にクリスマスの寄付金を募る行為を禁じていると述べた。
Thank you for your continued support of Davao’s portal site “Davaotchi”. “Davaotchi” is an information portal about Davao that has been running for about seven and a half years since September 2016 with the aim of conveying the charms of Davao to Japanese people in Japanese and making them more aware of Davao. Thanks to everyone’s support, we have gained a certain amount of recognition, such as being featured in a magazine, and many people have started to hear the term “Dabaotchi”. On the other hand, we have prioritized the mission of conveying the charms of Davao to as many Japanese people as possible, so there is almost no profitability, and we have allocated the profits generated from other businesses to the site management, but we have no plans for the future. As a result of careful consideration of scalability and development, Davaotchi has decided to recruit supporters who can support Davaotchi in order to better manage the site. We considered charging for the site or introducing a subscription plan, but we wanted to deliver information about Davao to as many people as possible, so we decided to simply ask for support from Davaochi fans first. You can support us using PayPal or credit card (debit card) below. We look forward to your cooperation. See more news articles
