Literally living in the street. What is this child doing here? Calling DSWD, hello? If the City of Manila, the Department of Social Welfare and Development and other government agencies can not do their job, who will? This child has become a menace to society. 
This scene has become very common in the heart of Manila. You can see them in almost every street corners along A. Mabini, Padre Faura, United Nations, Pedro Gil, and Adriatico; coming all the way from Quirino Avenue, Roxas Boulevard and Taft Avenue. These street children are called the "rugby boys". The Baranggay, Police and the City Hall are having a hard time dealing with them. Among the street children are the "mga laya" from the City Jail coming from different gangs like the "bahala na gang, commando and sputnik" among others. Most of the gangs are engaged in robbery and murder. Mabini...no longer a tourist belt! BEWARE OF PICKPOCKETS!
