CABAGAN, Isabela — For 11 days, Junmark Moises kept walking, hoping each step would bring him closer to his home in Sta. Rosa, Nueva Ecija.


His journey took him from Guiddam, Abulug, Cagayan, across long stretches of road and unfamiliar places, until a stranger noticed him and decided to help.


Moises was reportedly spotted by Emmanuel Antonio Allam of Sto. Tomas, Isabela while he was traveling toward Sta. Ana. When Allam saw him again in Barangay Namabbalan, Tuguegarao City, on his way back to Isabela, he approached Moises after noticing his difficult situation.


Moved by compassion, Allam gave him ₱200 and offered him a ride toward Isabela.


The two later stopped in Cabagan to eat, where they caught the attention of Police Chief Master Sergeant Jomar Albano of the Cabagan Municipal Police Station.


After learning about Moises’ situation, Albano brought him to the police checkpoint and spoke with him.


That was when police learned that Moises had already been walking for 11 days from Guiddam, Abulug, Cagayan, apparently trying to make his way back home to Nueva Ecija.


Instead of simply sending him on his way, the Cabagan police decided to lend a hand.


Albano, together with PMSg Edlyn Albolero, PCpl Gemalyn Antonette Quitevis, Pat Jesicca Rigonan and other police personnel, pooled money from their own pockets to help Moises.


They also provided him with clothes and transportation money.


Their combined assistance reached ₱1,900, enough to cover his fare and give him additional money for his journey home.


For Moises, what began as an exhausting 11-day walk became a journey that ended with unexpected kindness from people he did not even know.


The Cabagan MPS said the gesture reflects the police officers’ compassion, kindness and willingness to help people in need, showing that public service can extend beyond enforcing the law.


Sometimes, the road home can be long and difficult—but a little kindness from strangers can make the journey easier.
