Mga bata gustong gawing matandang OFW, para makapag-abroad


ORA MISMO - Butch M. Quejada (Pilipino Star Ngayon) - March 22, 2019 - 12:00am
HINDI pinayagan ng Bureau of Immigration sa NAIA na paalisin ang tatlong underage na OFWs matapos nilang harangin ang mga ito sa pagsakay sa eroplano ng Gulf Air Airlines papuntang Saudi Arabia.
Bakit?
Nabuko silang masiadong bata at hindi tama ang edad na nakatitik sa kanilang mga passport.
Hindi natin babanggitin ang kanilang mga pangalan dahil may prohibition sa anti-trafficking law na ipinatutupad.
Sabi nga, bawal!
Ang legal age kasi ng mga OFWs ay 23-years old, ito ang batas na ipinatutupad sa Philippines my Philippines kaya naman kung mas bata pa rito ang edad ng isang aalis na OFW going abroad ay bawal ito.
Ika nga, mapa-babae o lalaki man!
Sabi ni Erwin Ortanez, hepe ng BI - Travel Control Enforce­­ment Unit, gumagawa ng gimik ang mga handlers ng mga batang OFWs para maging hustong gulang ang mga OFW na kanilang palalabasin, pero ang mga ganitong style ay hindi makakalusot sa TCEU group.
Ika nga, buko na !
Ang mga ito ay may mga valid overseas employment certificates, job contract at working visa ang paltos nga lamang sa gimik ng kanilang mga handlers ay wala sa tamang edad.
Sila ay isasalin sa pag-iingat ng IACAT sa paliparan para maimbestigahan kung sino ang gumawa ng gimik para sa kanila. Abangan!

PCG: China’s bullying in West Philippine Sea undermines international law --- Ghio Ong - The Philippine Star

MANILA, Philippines — Letting China sustain its aggression in the West Philippine Sea would make other countries doubt the strength of international law currently being asserted by the Philippines, Commodore Jay Tarriela of the Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) said. “Allowing China to blatantly disregard the established rules-based order threatens the very foundation that we all depend on,” he wrote in a post on X last Tuesday. He added, “If we permit this, countries worldwide may forget why this order was created in the first place. Nations could begin to doubt the significance of adhering to international law if powerful bullies can easily violate it.” Tarriela also said defiance of other countries to a rules-based order would result in the prevalence of cruelty. He wrote, “This could lead us back to a time when might makes right, undermining the global structures that keep human greed, savagery and barbarism in check. Such a scenario would not only invite challenges from aggressive ...

Social media seen as cause of rising intermarriages --- Helen Flores - The Philippine Star

MANILA, Philippines — The Commission on Filipinos Overseas (CFO) sees social media as the main reason for the rising number of Filipinos marrying or becoming partners of foreign nationals. In 2022, the CFO recorded 6,854 marriages or partnerships with foreign nationals, a 40.1 percent increase from the 4,891 “intermarriages” recorded in 2021. “First of all, what we see in the increase in the marriage rate of Filipinos or Filipinos with foreign partners is because of social media, (that) is number one; matchings; letters, introduction of their friends,” CFO chairperson Romulo Arugay said at the Bagong Pilipinas Ngayon public briefing yesterday. Arugay said the agency has been registering a high number of intermarriages since 2007, but the figures went down during the COVID-19 pandemic. From over 6,500 Filipinos who married foreign nationals, only 600 are men, he said. Most of them are married to Americans, Japanese, Germans, Canadians and Australians, Arugay said. Arugay warned Fi...
