What Does Informal Settler Means?
An informal settler is a squatter. This is a term often used by law enforcement and governments to address the homeless population.
"ISKWATER!"
People often times neglect them especially those who belong in the middle class society. If there are crimes, mishap or trouble they are the first one that is being suspected.
Though a tranquil place, Bulan have also a number of informal settlers.
Meet Domingo Arguilles
We found him near the Church, doing his laundry inside his trample.
Manong Domingo is now 43 years old. He lives inside his own trample or pedicab. Manong decided to leave his parents for some reasons,we did not ask why because it is too personal. He is not yet married, meaning he lives ALONE but he is contented with his life.
In his everyday job as a pedicab driver, he earns only 35 pesos. A little for us, but for him it is enough to sustain his daily needs.
His friends describes him as a good, religious, and an industrious person.
Meet Zaldy Firmanes
Literally living under the bridge of Pawa, Bulan, Sorsogon.
Manong Zaldy, a 54 -year-old man,was born on May 9,1961. A husband and a father of 9 children. He is living under the bridge about 17 years already. According to manong, he and his wife is now separated and their children is on the custody of his wife.
A simple house that is built from nipa.
This is his shelter for almost 17 years.
He was a construction worker back then.
Now, Manong Zaldy work as a "Bantay Ilog" to sustain their daily needs. He earns 200 pesos a day. Kelly Tan Chua was the one who gave him this work.
