00:00Here in Dubai, there are restaurants that are familiar to the taste of us Filipinos.

00:11Korean BBQ restaurant or Samgyupsal.

00:16Wow, it's a different kind.

00:17It's really tasty.

00:19One of the dinarayo here is owned by a Filipino.

00:24Let's go inside.

00:25The old Las Pinas City, which is owned by Jennifer, is now filling up with people from Dubai.

00:31Who would have thought that the restaurant owner, Jennifer, used to be a garbage collector.

00:39At the age of 5 years old, we used to collect garbage before going to school.

00:42That's how we make a living.

00:43How come since she became a garbage collector, Jennifer is now earning more than 16 million pesos a month?

00:53In the story of the garbage collector, let's find out.

01:05Jennifer used to live in Barong-Barong.

01:08There were 6 of us siblings in our house.

01:10We were very poor.

01:11We didn't have electricity.

01:15Jennifer's father was a carpenter.

01:17But he got sick.

01:19That's why her mother was only able to earn enough to support her siblings.

01:27It was really painful because I was the only one earning a living.

01:32I really wanted to eat bread, but I couldn't.

01:35I experienced poverty in school.

01:37I would see other students, their shoes were white.

01:40While I was naked.

01:42There was envy and sadness.

01:45Why do they have that? Why don't we have that?

01:48Because of this, Jennifer became a garbage collector at a young age.

01:52At the age of 5 years old, we used to collect garbage before going to school.

02:00I don't look at the tiredness, the hardship, the weight, the hard days.

02:04What's important to me is that I have money that I didn't ask for from my mother.

02:09She said that she also experienced a little bit of laziness while collecting garbage.

02:14When we were at home, a drunk man came out.

02:16He said to me, let's go inside the room.

02:18I ran inside and cried.

02:22What's more painful is that not only did the garbage become a burden to her,

02:26but also to her own father.

02:28She was bullying us siblings for a little mistake.

02:31Do you think that bullying is love?

02:33To avoid their father's abuse, Jennifer entered the house.

02:39But this is not the end of her mischief.

02:42She was imprisoned by her boss.

02:45He forced me to sell my house. I took his money.

02:47I cried and cried.

02:49Even though we are poor, our mother didn't teach us to steal.

02:55When my father died, I told my mother that I will abroad.

02:59When she arrived in Dubai, Jennifer became a waitress.

03:02She entered any racket.

03:05She sold peanuts, rice, and makeup.

03:08Her clients are also our countrymen there.

03:11I saw the opportunity in Dubai.

03:13If you are hardworking, you will earn a lot.

03:17She also became a dealer of encyclopedia.

03:20This is where she became a client of her countryman, Rito.

03:23Later, he became a mister.

03:25I fell in love with him.

03:26We got married in Dubai. We lived in Dubai.

03:29Jennifer and Rito had three children.

03:32But their relationship ended when Riko lost his job.

03:37The more I work hard, the more I save.

03:40He is the one who earns.

03:41It hurts me because it's hard to earn money.

03:44Their defeat was physical.

03:47He took my phone. I was so scared.

03:52Jennifer was completely separated from her mister.

03:55And her children were left alone.

03:58Even until now, I still remember. It's hard.

04:00Do you know why they have a good life?

04:04Why do you have three jobs, but you still can't survive?

04:08You are still lacking.

04:13But at the time, she was the most depressed.

04:16She found a new companion in life,

04:20in the body of an American, Dog.

04:23I met Sir Dog with a common friend.

04:25He gave us a foresight.

04:27This woman is beautiful.

04:29I can see myself being with her for a long time.

04:32I can see myself just connecting with her.

04:34How we automatically just click.

04:36How we have the same likes.

04:37How we have the same desires.

04:39Had the same passion.

04:40Jennifer and Dog did not just rely on each other.

04:44Even in business.

04:46She worked so hard to support the kids.

04:48That's when we had the idea to come up with the restaurant.

04:51This was the perfect woman to join with.

04:53The business they thought of establishing,

04:56Korean Barbecue Restaurant or Samgyupsalan.

04:59Their Samgyupsalan,

05:01slowly became popular.

05:03Our customers always come from different places here in Abu Dhabi.

05:08I can't tell you.

05:09She's just like a friend,

05:11who's easy to get close to.

05:13In the past,

05:14Jennifer would only get the same amount of money

05:16for the whole day.

05:18Now,

05:19the income of her Samgyupsalan

05:21is only up to 16 million pesos

05:25every month.

05:26Awesome!

05:27It's hard to be poor.

05:29You're hungry,

05:30but you have nothing to eat.

05:31Now in Dubai,

05:32we have four restaurants.

05:34She worked so hard to move up to where she is right now.

05:37That's why the former resident of Barong-Barong

05:40now has her own house in Dubai.

05:44Jennifer also has her own properties in the Philippines.

05:48This three-story house in Pampanga

05:53is one of Jennifer's secrets

05:56on how to be practical in life.

06:00We don't buy things for our loved ones.

06:02Sometimes, we even fight.

06:04I'm proud of her.

06:05She's the only daughter

06:07who really put her life,

06:10her family,

06:11and her children first.

06:12I'm really proud of her

06:14because she really worked hard from the bottom

06:16and now she's at the top.

06:18I feel really blessed to have her as my mom.

06:20Not long ago,

06:21Jennifer and her dog

06:22went back to the Philippines.

06:24Welcome to Philippines!

06:26And one of Jennifer's visitors

06:28is her former residence in Las Pinas.

06:31This is where I grew up.

06:33This area is full of squatters.

06:37I remember

06:40how hard it was for us back then.

06:46There were moments when we needed

06:49to eat, but there was no food.

06:52This is a historic moment

06:54in our return.

07:00Jennifer is a restaurant owner.

07:02Let's go inside.

07:03She used to be a garbage collector.

07:05At the age of five years old,

07:06we used to collect garbage before going to school.

07:08That's how we made a living.

07:09How did she become a garbage collector?

07:12Jennifer now earns

07:14around P16 million a month.

07:19It's hard to be poor.

07:21You're hungry, but there's no food.

07:23Now in Dubai,

07:24we have four restaurants.

07:26Not long ago,

07:27Jennifer and her dog

07:28went back to the Philippines.

07:30Welcome to Philippines!

07:32And one of Jennifer's visitors

07:34is her former residence in Las Pinas.

07:37This is where I grew up.

07:39This area is full of squatters.

07:41That banana tree is our house.

07:51I remember how hard it was for us back then.

08:00There were moments when we needed to eat,

08:04but there was no food.

08:07I can't believe I went through that.

08:21Jennifer, who used to have no food,

08:24is now making snacks for the kids in the area.

08:28And because she values education,

08:32Jennifer was given a scholarship program

08:35for the kids who are with her in the church.

08:39Oh my love, thank you!

08:42I hope that this scholarship

08:44will help the students

08:46to study harder.

08:55Thank you so much.

08:57I want to buy this.

08:59I will study hard

09:01so that I will be able to buy this.

09:03Thank you!

09:11If you are a squatter now,

09:14I hope that the story of the trash can

09:17will serve as an inspiration

09:20to pull yourself up

09:22and move towards the life you dream of.

09:27I believe that

09:29you will persevere

09:31until you reach your goal.

09:33There will come a time when you will cry,

09:35not because you are in pain,

09:37but because you are full of blessings.
