The Issue
FOR PRESIDENT RODRIGO "DIGONG" ROA DUTERTE TO ISSUE NOW AN EXECUTIVE ORDER TO MASS REPATRIATE ALL OVERSEAS FILIPINO WORKERS (OFWS) IN THE KINGDOM OF SAUDI ARABIA (KSA) AND LEBANON DUE TO IMPENDING WAR.
A CALL FOR GENERAL REPATRIATION OF ALL OFWS IN THE KSA AND LEBANON.
This PETITION most ardently and urgently calls for PRESIDENT DUTERTE to issue as early as possible an EXECUTIVE ORDER for GENERAL REPATRIATION of ALL OVERSEAS OFWS in KSA and Lebanon due to the declaration of war of KSA against Lebanon.
THIS CALL FOR HIS EXCELLENCY TO MOST KINDLY CONSIDER OUR URGENT CALL TO COME OUT SUCH AN APPROPRIATE EXECUTIVE ORDER MUST SIGNIFICANTLY CONTAIN THE FOLLOWING IMPORTANT ASPECTS:
(1) TO PRIORITIZE THE EVACUATION OF ALL OFWS WHO ARE NOW CONFINED AND RECUPERATING IN THE HOSPITALS OF KSA AND LEBANON.
(2) TO REQUEST THE KING OF KSA AND THE HEAD OF LEBANON TO PLEASE COME OUT A GENERAL AMNESTY PROGRAM OR A SPECIAL ARRANGEMENT TO PARDON OR RELEASE ALL OFWS WHO HAVE BEEN LANGUISHING IN PRISONS IN THESE SAID COUNTRIES OF KSA AND LEBANON OR SIMPLY THE TRANSFER OF CUSTODY FROM THESE SUBJECT NATIONS' DETENTION CENTERS TO THE CUSTODY OF PHILIPPINE JAILS.
(3) TO COMMIT TO THESE OFWS THAT THE GOVERNMENT WILL WORK OUT COMPREHENSIVE AND CONCRETE PROGRAMS FOR THEIR WELFARE AND BENEFITS UPON THEIR RETURN TO OUR HOME COUNTRY PHILIPPINES SUCH AS ENUMERATED HEREUNDER:
(A) TO HELP THEM COLLECT ALL OF THEIR UNPAID MONETARY CLAIMS FROM GOVERNMENT AGENCIES AND FROM THEIR RESPECTIVE EMPLOYERS THROUGH THEIR SPECIFIC RECRUITMENT AGENCIES' PERSONNEL AND OFFICERS.
(B) WITH "STUDY NOW PAY LATER" SYSTEM, GRANTS OR SCHOLARSHIPS, FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AND OR "WITH CORRESPONDING SALARY WHILE STILL STUDYING" SCHEMES TO PROVIDE THEM THE REQUIRED EDUCATION, TRAININGS AND SKILLS IN PARTNERSHIP WITH TECHNICAL EDUCATION AND SKILLS DEVELOPMENT (TESDA) AND OTHER PRIVATE AND PUBLIC LEARNING INSTITUTIONS TO SEND THEM OFF TO OTHER AFFLUENT COUNTRIES LIKE AUSTRALIA, CANADA, JAPAN, IN EUROPE AND OTHER NATIONS WHERE OFWS ARE IN DEMAND NOWADAYS IF IN CASE THEY STILL DESIRE TO WORK ABROAD OR THEY REMAIN WANTING TO BECOME AN OFW THEREIN.
(C) TO PROVIDE INDIVIDUAL OFW THE NEEDED NON - COLLATERAL FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE AND OR MICROFINANCING AVENUES AND MICROLENDING FACILITIES TO START UP A BUSINESS OF THEIR OWN THRU THE SOCIAL SECURITY SYSTEM (SSS), PAG - IBIG FUND, OFW BANK (FORMERLY, THE POSTALBANK) AND OTHER FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS AND OTHER PRIVATE BANKS AND LENDING ESTABLISHMENTS WITH THE PHILIPPINE GOVERNMENT OR CERTAIN PHL GOVT. AGENCY ACTING AS A CO - MAKER OR GUARANTOR OF THESE SAID ASSISTANCE OR SOFT LOANS.
THE MOVE OF PRES. DUTERTE TO MASS EVACUATE ALL OF THE OFWS IN THESE WAR -TORN NATIONS WILL SURELY BECOME AN UNPOPULAR DECISION TO THE AFFECTED OFWS AND THEIR FAMILIES BUT FIRST AND FOREMOST, WHAT AT STAKES HERE ARE PRIMARILY THEIR SAFETY, THEIR OWN LIMBS AND LIVES AND GENERAL WELL BEING.
THUS, THE IMMEDIATE NEED TO PURSUE OUR EARLIER CALL FOR AN "OFW SUMMIT NOW" TO THOROUGHLY DISCUSS THE SEVERAL PROBLEMS AND CHALLENGES BESETTING THE DEPLOYMENT AND EMPLOYMENT IN THE OVERSEAS OF FILIPINO WORKERS LIKE ILLEGAL RECRUITMENT AND OTHER FORMS OF HUMAN TRAFFICKING.
THIS "OFW SUMMIT NOW" IS A FORUM WHERE THOSE ISSUES AND CONCERS AFFECTING THE OFWS CAN BE MORE APPROPRIATELY, COMPREHENSIVELY AND TIMELY HEAD - ON CONFRONTED AND TACKLED.
AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, THIS "OFW CONGRESS" IS AS WELL THE PROPER AND RIGHT VENUE TO ALSO DISCUSS THE PERFECT PREPARATION OF ANOTHER MASS REPATRIATION OF OFWS IN KUWAIT AND OTHER COUNTRIES ACROSS THE MIDDLE EAST IN THE EVENT OF ESCALATION OF CONFLICTS OR EVENTUAL WARS OF NATIONS IN THIS SAID ENTIRE REGION.
In the KSA, there are at least two million (2,000,000) OFWs while in Lebanon, there are thirty one thousand three hundred forty eight (31,348) as of year 2012 based on OFW Demographic Data: https://www.pinoymoneytalk.com/ofw-population-country-age-sex-work-type/
MEANWHILE, the recent war advisory is factual and NOT A FAKE NEWS as others insinuate! PLEASE WATCH THESE:
