The continuous cases of OFWs getting life sentences or death penalties for being drug mules is quite alarming. In today's news, another batch of OFWs in Indonesia have just been meted those sentences. For one thing, the media coverage about this problem should alert our fellowmen from people or syndicates who work in this kind of 'business'. The solution to dissuading them is actually simple. Anything that is too good to be true - usually is. So they have to use their common sense and run away from those 'unbelievable offers'! Easy money usually comes with grave consequences - like a lifetime in prison in some foreign country! The amounts dangled before them (US$1500 = PhP64,200) is not even enough to compensate them once they get caught! So better to use their common sense at all times!
