Hello #Hive!
Time for Benito's #WhoAreTheyPhilippines reward giving!
The #WhoAreTheyPhilippines or #WATP initiative consists of randomly finding a person to interview and feature in a post. After 7 days, when the post payout and all the contributions have been tallied, we go back to that person and hand him/her over the reward. A few days later, we post the video of that moment.
Benito was the feature of WATP #21. The author's reward came in last Wednesday.
So here is the breakdown for his reward:
HBD 25.517 from post payout
+ HBD 5.000 from @indayclara
+ HBD 5.000 from @ybanezkim26
+ HBD 4.000 from @discoveringarni
+ HBD 3.000 from @itsmiessyonpeakd
+ HBD 2.000 from @iamraincrystal
+ HBD 2.000 from @iamyohann
+ HBD 2.000 from @romeskie
+ HBD 1.000 from @akumagai
= HBD 49.517
+ HIVE 2.000 from @sagadahoctrott
= HIVE 2.000
Both amounts converted into the local currency were 2,371.86 + 166.08 = PHP 2,537.94 so it was rounded up to PHP 2,550 to make it easier.
A few hours after the payout, and assisted by @discoveringarni, we went back to his place to hand over the money. The week before, during the interview, when asked what he would do with the money, Benito answered that he would buy rice. We decided to do that for him and added an extra 5kg bag of rice to his reward.
Benito wasn't surprised to see me again. After all, I did promise that I would be back a week later. Because it was raining, we gathered inside his hut where we were quickly joined by his daughter and a flock of kids. Even though he is not very expressive, it was obvious that he was happy and thankful.
Watch the video to see the moment when Benito received his reward. I'm sorry that it is a bit blurred, I didn't notice the dirt on the lens.
Here is a picture of Benito with the reward in his hands and the bag of rice by his side.
Once again, thank you to everyone for participating in her reward and especially the above-mentioned persons for their contributions. And thank you @discoveringarni for assisting with translation and for the video editing.
I'd like to call on the regular contributors to contact me if they are interested to do a feature so that #WATP can reach different areas of the Philippines. So far we did a feature in Mandaue City, Cebu (by @ybanezkim26), and one in Taguig City, Manila (by @romeskie). It could be interesting to see another place.
See you soon for our next interviewee!
