Honest NAIA worker returns foreign currency

MANILA, Philippines -- An honest janitress at the customs area of the Ninoy Aquino International Airport received praises after handing over to authorities a wallet containing different foreign currency she found Thursday.

Although the bills, whose combined value ran to around P500,000, were already demonetized, airport officials said they are considered collectors’ items.

Mary Jennifer Doroga, 32, a resident of Baltao, Paranaque City said she found the black wallet around 1:40 p.m. as she was sweeping the floor at the NAIA Terminal 1.

She immediately handed over her find to customs duty collector Ric Dizon who, in turn, handed it to Intelligence and Investigation Division of the NAIA police.
