Its been two weeks or three since theirs a big news about Ram being killed. And the suspect killers are hired by his own siblings. The root of all of this? Is money. The story goes that since they are the other family on many degree. Their mother spend more than the allowance the head of the family give. And since they are the other family. They only living from the allowance that given to them. Now their older brother is reported that his mother spend a lot and even have lots of debt. Even though their allowance is 100 times the minimum wage. When the head of the family know this what he do is that he reduce the allowance into half and that angers his siblings and that is the reason why he get killed. But for me. How can you kill your own brother? Your own blood? Its okay if he killed him in the middle of a fight. But plotting and killing your own brother?

I am really saddened that they have to kill Ram just to be able to get control of the allowance. And i am shocked that the new suspect narrated that one of the female siblings who is pregnant at that, is the mastermind! And you would say that the suspect can really narrate it well.
I am really shocked by this tragic story of siblings who had their brother killed! I think, this is a case of spoiled children. They were not properly guided by their mother who herself has money troubles, when in fact she has no job! And to think that she's an other woman! What a nerve that woman has, and i think she's also responsible, why that happened.

That's true. I wonder if their mother new about this one. But I guess she do. Lets face it. If they can do that. I'm sure their mother is at fault. Beside its their mother money spending spree that is the root of all the problem. If their mother can just live with the limits of their allowance theirs no problem. I heard that their allowance before is 1 million a month. And since they are ten in the household that means 100,000 peso each. Then how come their mother still have millions of debt in here creditcard?

Had their mother taught them to be thrifty and living within their means, they wouldn't be so used to having much money. Imagine that big allowance! Some families can even live in a PhP10,000.00 monthly stipend, yet they still long to have a hold of the whole allowance.
I think, it's really the mother who is the root of them being like that.

And the way she acted. I will say yes. Just imagine. Her daughter give her some money to pay their electric bill. But her daughter learn later that she did not use it to pay their electric bill. I don't know what she do with her money. But I guess she use is to something that really make her spend money like addiction. If you ask me.

Greed can make you kill other people. But most people who is greedy. Save money for their family. Not kill their family for money. I don't know but I guess if a person is that greedy and willing to kill his own blood to get the money must be put in torture chamber.

It depends on the degree that the love of money reaches. You are possibly right that greed is a better word. kHowever people can be greedy for other things besides money like power, fame, position, land etc.

That's true. but I never still love of money is the root of evil. Its the person not the money. For example. I will give you 100,000 dollars a month. while the other person I will give 100,000 dollars also. Those two love money and they really happy that they get 100,000 dollars a month. But other one want to kill the other one so that he will get 200,000 dollars. While the other one want to invest so that he can earn more from that money. So theirs so many way to love money. Beside, Love is a strong word for something positive and not something bad.

I don't think its love of money that is root of much evil. I think its greed. For example. I love money. And I think every body love money. But if you are greedy then that's the evil side of loving money. Me. I love money but I want to get that money fair and square.

Is this Cain and Abel? lol! There's too much greed in their family. They worshiped money above all. Tsk! I think their parents is also to be blamed for getting this far as taking someone's own blood and flesh. Just to think 1 million a month for the whole family is too big for your day to day needs. I just pray that the suspect voluntarily surrender, ask forgiveness and pay for his sins. And also may each person that loves Ram finds forgiveness and healing in their hearts.

Does it mean that since you are just "illegitimate" children, a father's obligation ends in financial assistance? It's a very complicated situation especially if the legal family can never accept the other family. I get your point that it's the mother who is solely to be blamed. I guess they also have acquired her innate bad traits.But don't you think that the father should have at least also inculcated or disciplined his other children and remind them that money is not everything. Being busy is not a reason not to be a father to them. Yes, I'm from the Phils and only heard a little about this.

Its parent. Not parents if you ask me. Or if you know the story. Are you from the Philippines? Anyway since they come from extended family into many degree. I think its up to the mistress to teach her children. And I think since the father is so busy. Doing in and outs of business and his children. Beside if other children from other mothers has a good reputation and well being then its means its the failure of the mother.

I don't get your point. What financial assistance? Have you not read my post? How much is the financial assistance that is consider enough? Okay since your living in the Philippines. Do you think one million assistance is not enough? And do you think lowering it down to 200,000 means that the obligation of a father ended simply because he lower the allowance to 200,000 pesos?

This is really surprising for me, and if this is true, it was very disturbing. I thought Filipinos are loving to their family members. However, like the bible says, money is the root of all evil. Sometimes people would love money more than anything else even their own family.
You see because of money, people would choose to lie and corrupt their values.

That's true. and sometimes if you experience abundance. You don't want to loss that. And that why many will kill including their siblings just to maintain that status. Its really hard to feel the beauty of greed. Yes greed is a beauty. Without greed. Theirs no big corporation. Without greed our forefather will be contended with low and down to earth living.

owh, really sad story.
i think who had done this do not thinking so well.
siblings should have a good relationship,not like this, even the problem is just about money.
i think it is really crazy thing for me.
i will not fight with my brother till kill my brother just because of money, i think there is still many way to get more money than have to fight till kill.

That's their family. It really questionable in our part. But maybe its all go down to up bringing. Beside they are not addict. So it means its pure hate. If hate sits in. Theirs no such thing as sibling. I think its combination of hate and money.

It is really quite unbelievable that they could ever plot to kill their own brother but the evidences show they really did. I can't imagine these people could do this just because of money. Indeed the love of money is the root of all evil. They did not even consider that Ram is their own blood. How could they ever think of killing him just because of the money issue? It's obvious these people do not fear God at all. They are so obsessed with money and made money their god so they'd kill anyone for money. How sad!

Hi Bulastika! I lost track of this story already. The last thing ive heard was that the sister is the master(monster)mind on all this. Did she fly back to Manila from Turkey for her final statement?
Ramgen was merely controlling the expenses of the family. It is what any Chief Finance Officer would have done. As for the allowance, wow! that was some heck of an allowance over there! Ive heard they have cars too!
Anyway, killing a sibling over financial matters is not a surprise to me. This has happened to Cain and Abel long ago. Though it is not surprising, i still call it Abnormal and Sad.

For me yes it is possible in this time because many are not good in terms of money matters because Satan is big in times of that case.

I don't believe in satan. For me what evil our world have right now is the product of our being. God give as free will. And its our choice to do evil. So in short. Satan is just a lazy creatures waiting for some foolish person to make mistake. But if theirs really hell. I hope does who kill their sibling must go to hell right away.

It's all about the money. When money becomes your god, conscience is no longer in your system. For these people, money is thicker than blood. Judgment is clouded by their love of material things.

And I think also hate. because money alone can't drive you to kill your own brother, our own blood. its because that they hate their brother so much because of the money that why. I guess that is the main reason why.

Hello bulastika! it's been a long time since we last seen each other... Well, I know I am not always here and have been gone for sometime.
Well, back to your topic, anyone can be bad at times when it comes to money. No matter what their relation to one another, if they choose to have money over the relationship they had, they would do anything just to have what they want. it just feel bad cause they became killers for such their age. What is happening to the world right? Well whatever they are going through right now, they had their choice and they have to live with it.

I guess they don't have conscience. So I doubt that they will going to be hunted by it. On the first place. They will not going to plot something like this if they really have conscience. Maybe if you kills your sibling in a fit of fight or anger. Then when you become relax you feel regrets. But this case? I don't think they will going to be bothered at all.

Hello bulastika,
Its really sad to hear it that today people are more keen to get money by any means they even don't hesitate to kill their own ones for getting it.
One should really think of what he is doing before doing it.People who do this are worse than animals who also don't kill their own ones and try to defend them from others.
I won't say it right if he had killed him in the middle of a fight too.

Theirs a lot of cases in our country. Especially if you come from a big family that sometimes without intention of killing if you are drunk or really mad in something you end up killing your sibling in the fit of anger. Theirs no arguing that its wrong but it does happen and regret later. But plotting to kill your own brother? This is the first time I heard such case in our country.

I guess theirs a half truth to that. But I don't think its appropriate in this case. I believe in this case. Mother is the root of all evil. Because if their sibling can kill their own brother. Its means its the mother fault. Because if their mother teach them to love. I'm sure they will going to live a good life not a greed life.

Yeah. Its not good. But whose going to be blame? The society? The parents? or its just that they are born like that and no matter how you teach them the right from wrong they will always be that bad. I guess right now they don't still feel remorse. I don't think no one in their right mind will say they kill their own brother and be put in prison.
