Remains of OFW who died in HK fire arrive in Manila
The remains of Maryan Pascual Esteban, an overseas Filipino worker (OFW) who perished in a Hong Kong fire, arrived in the Philippines on Saturday.
Esteban, a domestic worker from Cainta, Rizal, was among the casualties of a devastating fire that engulfed multiple towers in a residential compound in Tai Po District last November.
The Overseas Workers Welfare Administration (OWWA) confirmed Esteban's arrival and expressed condolences to her grieving family, assuring them of the nation's support.
Migrant Workers Secretary Hans Leo Cacdac, OWWA Administrator PY Caunan, and Agimat Party-list Rep. Bryan Revilla were present to facilitate assistance for Esteban's family.
While Esteban was tragically lost, the Philippine Consulate General in Hong Kong had previously confirmed that 92 other Filipinos in the area were safe and accounted for following the incident.
