Olmidillo, an overseas Filipino worker with two children, together with a colleague found the bag in Starbucks in Reel Cinemas at the Dubai Mall.

The Dubai Police recognition is part of the “We reach you to thank you” initiative which acknowledges external collaborators at their workplace among colleagues.
“I didn’t for a moment have any second thoughts about the bag. If I do good to others, good things will happen to me,” said Olmidillo in a Gulf News report on September 8.
