MANILA<\/strong>\u00a0— A security guard at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) on Thursday surrendered to authorities a pouch with US dollar bills he found at the arrival conveyor area of the airport.<\/p>\n

Sanzebal Mastul found the pouch at one of the carousels at NAIA Terminal 1.<\/p>\n

“A remarkable amount of cash” is inside the pouch, according to the Manila International Airport Authority (MIAA).<\/p>\n

The MIAA, refused to disclose the amount, as this would be among the details that would be asked from possible claimants.<\/p>\n

There was no ID card in the bag, it added.<\/p>\n

On Friday, the MIAA said Mastul headed to the paging section when he found the pouch. No one came after several announcements.<\/p>\n

Mastul later surrendered the pouch to the airport’s Lost and Found section.<\/p>\n

As of posting, no one has claimed the pouch, according to MIAA. The claimant must be able to prove that he or she is the real owner of the pouch.<\/p>\n

In a statement, MIAA general manager Ed Monreal commended Mastul, who has been a guard at the NAIA for 12 years now.<\/p>\n

Mastul’s act, he said, just proves the culture of honesty at the NAIA.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
