                    [Summary] => In a place called Isla Uling in Navotas, residents are used to the hard life.


Poverty is everywhere — from dilapidated shanties to tattered clothes worn by people weary of destitution.

But on Saturday, Christmas came early for these neglected Filipinos, most of whom make charcoal to get by, hence the island’s name.

Volunteers of "Operation Damayan" — the humanitarian arm of The STAR — took a 20-kilometer boat ride and walked half a kilometer in a muddy fishpond to make residents of Isla Uling feel the Christmas spirit.
