In the Mountain

 This old woman and the rest have found treasure out of the refuse or garbage that were dumped in an open landfill. I heard there had been around fifty families who depend from this particular dump for a living. They collect scraps, metals, plastics, bottles, glass, etc and sell these to local junk shops. There is a standing law of the country which orders the closure of open dumps and converting the same to sanitary landfills or the local governments to venture to more environmentally safe modes of waste management and disposal.

For the Coins

It has been a usual sight children at the piers ask for coins from the passengers of a docked ship or ferry. When a coin or coins were thrown, these children will dive and fetch them in the water. Authorities prohibit the passengers to do that, but some do not abide as the kids beg by saying..."Sir..., Madam... Piso please...!" Piso stands for any amount of coin, a peso, 5 or 10.
