According to Rosemarie’s post, she wrote that she was so scared. We could see that she’s in pain while expressing her agony. We can sense that she’s also anxious when we read the story she wrote as caption of the photo. She’s seeking help from her family at first and wanted to ask any help she can get, especially that she’s being restricted to use her mobile phone while she’s at work. She wanted to go back to the Philippines.

These photos had gone viral in a few hours and had a lot of reactions from netizens. Many were showing concern, some suggested to pray and stay strong. And some other netizens were helpful by linking pages like Raffy Tulfo’s “Tulfo Action Agad”.

Almost all of the comments were informative, like one concerned netizen gave information about (Philippine Overseas Labor & Office) POLO’s contact information. Aye Ditan who is another concerned person, wrote the current details of the victim and is sharing it through Facebook with the sense of urgency in the hopes of immediate response to rescue Rosemarie.

Currently, she wrote another post as an update of her situation.
