Not only Manny Villar can bring home OFWs. President Gloria Arroyo brought along with her 121 Overseas Filipino Workers yesterday, all from Saudi Arabia. The President came back from her latest trip abroad with the 119 OFWs who have escaped abusive employers, some are undocumented workers.
This would not be possible were it not for the hard work of the officers and staff of the Philippine Overseas Labor Office (POLO) in the said Arab country as well as the Overseas Workers’ Welfare Administration (OWWA) who expedited the documents necessary for the repatriation of the workers.
Kudos to Gloria and the rest of the government officials to assist these distressed workers. I wonder what Manny Villar will do to equal these efforts of the administration.
