A 45-year-old Filipino domestic worker in Hong Kong has died after being found unconscious in her employer’s bathroom.
On January 9, Erlinda Diego Cabulong, who had worked in Hong Kong for 15 years, was found unconscious in the bathroom by her employer Josephine Ngan in her Tuen Mun apartment, sunwebhk.com reported.
Ngan rushed Cabulong to Tuen Mun Hospital but she was pronounced dead on arrival at 8:15am. The cause of Cabulong’s death is not known.
Mercedes Jasmin Diego, Cabulong’s sister, said she could not believe her sister died so suddenly as she was not suffering from any illnesses.
Cabulong’s family had communicated with her the night before she died.
Diego said their family was waiting for the autopsy results before Cabulong’s body can be sent back to the Philippines. Ngan had agreed to send Cabulong’s body back to Manila but her family has to transport it back to their province in Quirino.

Meron yan nararamdaman iniignore lang .Maaring may malaking problema ayaw ipaalam sa pamilya kaya naiistress. Tayo mga OFW great pretender palagi nating sinasabi sa pamilya ok lang kahit hindi naman.RIP kabayan
Kulang ksi exercise dto ng mfa katolong kya siguro attack ang ikinamsmatay ng mga bihla na lang namanatay
sometimes, there are unattended health problems which reaults to serious threat to the body, specially when there are no symptoms and the body keeps on functioning,my nephew, was regularly working,one morning he was on board a bus in California, suddenly he passed out, the driver called 911,but unfortunately he died.
Maryann Faa siguro hindi nagsasabi si Erlinda, hindi tayo pwedeng magbintang agad agad, dahil karaniwan domestic helpers do not disclose their pain and ailments sa amo , worried na baka sila ma termninate, ilang helpers na ang nakausap ko na they are worried na malaman ng mga amo na may dinaramdam sila.
So sad???? Rest in peace kabayan..
Condolence to the whole family.
True

If house helpers are sick, how do their ‘sick days’ work? Are they bullied into working with the flu? What happens?
Condolence to the family and rip kabayan
Condolence po
If NET teachers died at the rate the maids do whilst working in foreign countries there would be hell up!
Unlikely the gas heater as there is always a flow of air in HK homes; they are obsessed with it. Wait for the autopsy before speculating anything. So sad that another hard worker has died, many condolanses to her family and friends.
Lily Escoto so may kasalanan yong amo abuse of work walang pakialam sa katulong nila biruin 15 years nag work sa kanila hindi man lang nila pinahalagahan
Must transport in her home of origin and that’s written in our contract..kung manila ang address nya sa contract eh talagang Manila lang..Rest in Peace kabayan.
