Cordillera - An  honest man from Mountain Province returns money worth P112,000 he found at the Natonin landslide during the retrieval operation of victims caused by typhoon Rosita. 


Benigno Sayaan Kiswong, a residence of Natonin who volunteered along with policemen, army personnel and government officials in the retrieval operation found the cash and turned it over  to authorities for safekeeping.

In a Facebook post by Lyn Kiswong Afig, daugther of Mr. Kiswong she expressed her commendation and appreciation of her father's noble act. 

"God fearing, honest and trustworthy. I'm proud of you daddy Benigno Sayaan Kiswong," Afig wrote.

"Siya po ay isang nakatulong sa landslide sa Natonin, Paracelis, Mt. Province. Siya po ay nakahanap ng malaking halaga ng pera, worth 112K. I'm proud of you daddy. God be with you and God bless you always," she added.
Mr. Kiswong was said to be among those who volunteer their time and energy to help in the retrieval operation of the victims of typhoon Rosita. 

In desperate times when money is involved, people tend to compromise or do unwise decisions then worry about the consequence later. 

Mr. Kiswong however, prove that in life, money is not everything. He is indeed a God fearing, honest and trustworthy man who believes on the "Inayan" principle.

Yan ang Igorot, always honest. That's right, money is not everything, but the good values you portray is.

Very well done my friend. It will be returned to you one day in multiple ways and not necessarily financially. As they say, money is not everything. That's what I meant when I wrote about Igorots being honest, I kind, respectful, humble and loving. We have the proof in you my brother Philippino. God bless you and your family.
