Friday, January 15th, 2010The mother of a Filipina peacekeeping officer trapped with two others in the United Nations building in earthquake-ravaged Haiti hopes her daughter and her comrades come home alive.
Manuela Panagui, widowed mother of Philippine Navy Data Processing-3 (DP3) officer Perlie Panagui, said she was shocked when she learned that her daughter was among the Filipino peacekeepers trapped in the Christopher Hotel, headquarters of the UN Stabilization Mission, in Port-au-Prince.
“When I got the shocking news, I didn’t know what to do. We prayed and hoped that my daughter and her companions are all alive… I love my daughter very much and I know they are alive,” she said.
