SYNOPSIS
In animal kingdom ther will always ba the prey, preditors, and scanvenger. In wildlife it happens and suprisingly in humans as part of the animal kingdom its all happening too.
Some of the poor families in the country depends their food needs from the leftoverfoods of the restaurants. They called it “BATCHOY” the food from the garbage. The people behind in this living are the people whose unemployed or no stable job, without proper lifestyle, and homeless. This people cant afford to buy to clean food. Because this people are victims of poverty. This people are like vampires at night because their just occuring at night, their active at night that nobody can recognized them. But first before they can taste their dish they must be quick and they might forestall yet another. And also they need the courage to talk to the restaurant managers to get immediate the residual or the leftover food and it will not be given to the others. But the danger in this kind of eating lifestyle; eating leftover foods can poisoned them, they can get sickness and diseases. But for them it don’t matters for only to survive hunger. They will take the risk even though it can be the fuse of their lives.




On the other side of the country there’s a mountain of life for the majority of the people who lives there the “SMOKEY MOUNTAIN” or the payatas dump site.
In this mountain everything is possible everyone can be part of the commodity that’s happening in the mountain. The people who work here is called “TAMBAKERO”. They are the people looking for the garbage that they can sell in the junkshop and turn the garbage into money. Surprisingly even a 6-year-old kid can be a tambakero. Instead of schooling the kid went to the mountain of life to have some commodities and earn money for his family. This kid was chosing to work rather than to go to school. Even though at his age he knew the danger behind his job.
The mountain of life is also an accident prone area. Because of the garbage that have sharp edges and also they might hit of the large vehicle passing by the area. And they might get sickness and diseases from the dirty environment that sorounds them. Before the Payatas Tragedy happened pollution in this place is get more even serious because there is no proper segregation. Because all type of dump in the city goes here. Everybody who works here is expose in dirty pollution inhaling toxic air, walking in the carpet of germs and bacteria. Children and adults who try their fortune in this place are gambling their health just to survive the cruelty of life.

COMMEMTEARIES
Poverty is the main branch why this kind of lifestyle is still existing.
To end this kind of living first we must prevent the proliferation of poverty in our country. Because if theres no poverty nobody will suffer, nobody will depend their food needs into leftover foods, nobody will pick garbage just to earn money, no child labor, childrens can go to school and play.
The government shall expand their services. Hoping that they will see what is really happening in our poor Juan de la Cruz. If only the government will give attention and stop the corruption maybe this social problem will have a solution. And many Filipinos can have a decent living.
