UPDATE: Matthew’s been found and reunited with his family. Story here.

Let’s try not to be indifferent people this time around.

I have a very soft spot for situations like this, particularly people who’s in dire need of help. I know how hard it is to lose someone you love. It’s more than just a physical pain felt. It stabs you from within, as if it kills you slowly imploding your heart in a beat.

I came across this blog post in Multiply about her missing nephew who’s allegedly been abducted by an unknown culprit.

His name is Matthew “Chu-Chu” David Samudio, a 3-year-old child who still can hardly speak straight. Apparently, he appears to be a sickly child and about to undergo an operation.

He’s last seen on Tuesday night, July 22, 2008, at Tom’s World Arcade in Alabang Festival Mall wearing green checkered polo, maong pants and green Mr. Bean slippers.

This has been reported earlier in TV Patrol (I think last night). As captured by the surveillance cam, a plump little girl who appears to be a beggar wearing a dirtied pink floral top and reddish jogging pants summoned the boy and then whispered something to him. The boy, who’s known to be a sprightly child, took the little girl’s hand as they went out of the premises.

The search is still ongoing and he’s still in unknown custody. The abductors are yet to be known and named. The family is calling for help, particularly those in media, police or government agency who can do immediate action to find Matthew the soonest possible time.

For any leads of information regarding Matthew, please feel free to contact the family. Details are found after the jump.
