The family of an OFW in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia didn’t have any news from her since she left Bacolod City, Negros Occidental more than seven years ago.

Finally, after years of hoping that she is alive and doing well, her family saw a video of Yolanda Aniban Visitacion asking for help on Facebook.

The family of the 59-year old woman immediately seek help from the Overseas Workers Welfare Administration (OWWA).

According to the OWWA Bacolod case officer Rizza Mapa, the case of Visitacion is now being held at the Philippine Embassy in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

Through the help of the Department of Foreign Affairs, Visitacion’s location is now currently being tracked especially because her family in the Philippines haven’t heard from her for seven years.

Good thing the video was posted on Facebook.

In the video, it can be seen that a woman, wearing a black hijab is anxious and obviously nervous. She introduced herself as Yolanda Aniban

According to her, she worked for her employer for six to seven years and was tasked to take care of their son who is now in the fourth grade. The boy was still a baby when Yolanda first started working for the family.

But according to the OFW, her employer is ‘mata pobre’ or a person who looks down on the poor. Additionally, the woman is also constantly maltreating her, hitting her on the hands and feet.

What’s worst is Visitacion’s eye condition. She is starting to get blind in one eye and couldn’t read or even tell the time. Her other eye is also starting to blur.

The video of Visitacion was first posted by a certain Jennifer Debaja Palomo, one of the members of OFW Public Service and Guidance group.

Palomo also said in her Facebook post that the children of Visitacion in the Philippines didn’t even know that she is still alive.

It was on 2008 when Visitacion went to Saudi Arabia to work but her family in the Philippines eventually lost contact with her. Her recruitment agency has long been closed.

Palomo said that she got the video with the help of another Filipina named Eileen, who works in a catering service company. They did a catering job in the house of Visitacion’s employer.
