Ruben Onsu Defence Story Adoption Thai So Fourth Child

Ruben Onsu told me of his decision to adopt Thareally Onsu's son as his fourth son. Ruben confessed to adopting Thatacus from his cooperation with Melanie Subono through Melanie Hope House.

When we met to talk about cooperation, Ruben found out that there was a baby that Melanie's team just found and needed help. The baby was found in a box with a body condition covered in ants.

"

After Thatacus got treated, Ruben kept asking for news of the baby's condition.

Their closeness was intertwined when Ruben communicated through the video call and saw Thatacus respond when called. Back then, Ruben claimed he was stunned when he saw the Thai response.

He felt Thadner's presence was related to the moment he fulfilled his umrah worship in June 2026. He said he was doing a study at the Nabawi Mosque that was discussing child prayers for dead parents.

The experience made Reuben think of his children. He then prayed for ease before making the decision to adopt Thatacus.

"So I went home to Indonesia, 14 days, and after that I was just on my way to Thailand, and finally I met Thatacus, healthy, healed, and he responded to me, and there I prayed, and there I was, and I allowed God to adopt this child, so I prayed again, and I prayed again,

Ruben said he never thought he'd have another child. He also chose the name Thatacus Onsu son to be aligned with his two daughters Thalia and Thania.

"The atmosphere that I never thought about, because God made me meet really when I was in the process of hearing for child custody, in the process, yes it is, I believe it's a story from which God has set it up.

Ruben has also introduced Thatacus to Betrand Peto or Onino after explaining the baby's origin. Meanwhile, Thalia and Thania were introduced to Thatacus through photos and videos because Ruben confessed to not meeting his two daughters.

"I explained this is Thayloh's kiss, this is his sister Thareally,

In the end, Ruben wished his four cubs could grow up to be a good, healthy, proud person. He also told Thalia and Thania that his love for them would not be diminished.

"For Cici Thalia and Cici Thania, you are great children, God willing. There will be a time for us to meet, but there will be no lessening the affection of your father, no one to reduce that sense, yet that father is always there for you,

Meanwhile, Melanie Subono revealed the process behind Ruben Onsu's decision to adopt her fourth son. He said everything Ruben asked if anyone was interested in babysitting.

"I told you yes there were a few donors, but once he was at the halfway house, Ruben said, 'Come get him, I want him, he's with me,' I was like yes sure, 'cause all I know is that Ruben is a good guy,

The foundation then helped with the necessary documents before Thatacus was handed into Ruben's care. The next process was to make Thahner part of his family taken care of by Ruben.
