垃圾山爱与愁
菲律宾马尼拉的垃圾山是碍眼的城市毒瘤——大量垃圾天天倾倒于此，大人小孩群起抢夺垃圾中可循环的宝物。时不时有少年意外丧命于垃圾压缩机下，一直都有人患上各种各样垃圾所导致的疾病；但这些罪犯和贫民别无选择，只能在龌龊的环境里营生、寻梦。他们的处境触动着一对新加坡夫妇的心，使他们放弃本地优渥的生活，毅然投身于垃圾山的贫民群中，提供他们有限的温饱，以及无限的爱。白薇秀这趟走进马尼拉恶名昭彰的垃圾山，体验这对夫妇的艰苦和悲悯。
Smoke Gets in Your Eyes
New Smokey Mountain is the festering eyesore of Metro Manila, Philippines. A prodigious amount of rubbish is dumped here every day, which adults and children readily swarm over to seize whatever trash that may be recycled. Youths get killed by rubbish compactors accidentally now and then, and there are always people who languish from rubbish-caused diseases, but the criminals and paupers living here have no choice but to hang on to life and their dreams in this squalid environment. A Singaporean couple was so profoundly moved by their plight that they left a life of abundance behind, and resolutely joined the destitute residents of New Smokey Mountain, offering limited sustenance but unlimited love. Joanne Peh enters this infamous hellhole to experience the difficulties faced by this couple, as well as the compassion they choose to embody.非官方民间组织简介

编导感言
摄制队的小客车第一次驶入马尼拉的垃圾山，我听见秀美说：“欢迎来到新烟山，我心爱的地方”。
秀美是我们节目所报导的新加坡妇女，她和丈夫在垃圾山成立关怀组织“援手之家”。
当时望着眼前炼狱般的景象，她那句话顿成谜团。
少年告诉我们，他喜欢住在这里，因为有奶奶相依为命，他愿意每夜拾荒来养活奶奶和自己。我们想把一包零食送给小孩，被他很严肃地拒绝了。大雨滂沱，运水大叔照样爽利地干活。无论黑夜白天，拾荒人总是不停地捡，不停地做，拖着一身龌龊去挣个生活……他们尚且要哭，但也永远会笑。这些身影，有一种说不出来的巨大和庄严。
我看到秀美非常恭敬地向一位老奶奶问好，托高并亲吻她干瘪的手，抓来扇子就为她扇风。她知道老奶奶的阴暗小屋每天都充满呛鼻的烟雾，因此能活到80几的高龄是多么不易。如果没有一双能穿透表象的眼，秀美一定无法爱得那么深，那么纯。
在最赤贫处，我经常看到最为光辉和壮美的东西。我们称之为人性。因为“仁心侠旅”，我的心得到很大的安慰，有种想干点什么的躁动，也不再任意哀伤。（完）
