Recently, lots of people were alarmed after news reports about a dead body found inside a freezer in an apartment in Kuwait broke out. The body was identified as Joanna Daniella Demafelis, a Filipino working as a domestic helper in Kuwait.
Based on a report, the late domestic helper works for a Lebanese man and a Syrian woman. She is a native of Sara, Iloilo and she went abroad to work and be able to provide the needs of her family.
It was in reportedly in 2014 when Joanna Demafelis went to Kuwait. In her first few months in a foreign country, she was able to communicate with her family.
A friend of Joanna Demafelis claimed that the Pinay domestic helper complained to her of being hurt by her employers and having delayed salaries.
According to the report, the authorities are coordinating with the bereaved family of the OFW. Her body has already been brought home and it is very painful for her loved ones.
It is undeniably that Joanna Demafelis is still in headlines now. Not only her family but as well as many Filipinos are saddened by what happened to the OFW who wanted nothing but to provide for her family in the Philippines.
Recently, one netizen, Carlo Aboitiz, complained with regards to the continuous reports about the Pinay domestic helper that was found dead in Kuwait.
“WALA KATAPUSAN NGA DEMAFELIS NEWS. WALA NA BAG-O MGA KAAKSYON? BASI PATI PAG PAMUS-ON NILA E NEWS NYO PA GD. HULATA NYO NA LANG PAG LUBONG NYA. SUS 1 WEEK PA NI NGA DEMAFELIS NEWS.

[Never ending news about Demafelis. Is there nothing new? You might also want to report about their releasing of wastes. Just wait until she gets buried. Demafelis news will continue for a week. We’ll just have to suffer on the same old news. No hate with regards to the family but I feel like vomiting because of her faces in tarpaulins, casket, lights, and flowers…]
Although Carlo Aboitiz, a Filipino residing in California now based on his social media account, stated that he has no hate towards the family, his offensive statement may still hurt the family of Joanna who is still going through a very hard time now. The reports about the said OFW shows the painful reality that will hopefully not happen again. Surely, the authorities and the government are doing their best to safeguard the Filipinos working abroad.
