Department of Tourism (DOT) Secretary Christina Garcia Frasco has expressed full support for the Department of Migrant Workers’ (DMW) whole-of-nation reintegration program, recognizing the important role of overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) in the Philippines’ social and economic progress.
The Department of Migrant Workers (DMW) distributed approximately ₱3.5 million in financialaid to 67 overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) from the National Capital Region (NCR) through its AKSYON Fund, a support system for OFWs and their families in need of immediate assistance.
The Department of Migrant Workers (DMW) is set to provide stricter guidelines on the housing facilities provided by licensed Philippine recruitment agencies (PRAs) deploying household service workers (HSWs).
Every OFW has a story to tell. Each one with a unique tale of family, sacrifice, struggles, defeats, and victories. OFW life stories are a brilliant example of dedication and perseverance.
Unity is essential in executing an effective plan of action. It is not always easy to coordinate and compromise, but Lao Sr confidently spoke of the unity between him, his son, their associates, and their plans for the future of Santa Cruz.
Enduring depression can be a traumatic experience. Anyone who has recovered from this mental illness knows how it can strip you of the will to live, how it can turn you away from all the things you used to enjoy, and how it can make you feel utterly meaningless.
Almost every OFW shares the same narrative. Not making enough, and they decide to find employment overseas. But from this single act of selflessness spawned stories of ordinary people overcoming extraordinary odds.
For OFWs, financial decisions extend far beyond the simple action of saving money and spending wisely. A better understanding of financial management can substantially assist them in risk assessment to avoid falling into debt or making hasty investments.
“Money is hard to earn, but easy to lose.”
In our world today, financial planning is integral to a successful future. Unexpected expenditures, hasty spending habits, or even just one unwise investment could bring us back to square one.
Every community has its own share of problems, just like in Sta. Cruz, Davao del Sur.
Which is why it needs a tough, courageous & trustworthy leader who hears the people’s demands and acts in their best interest. A leader like Jaime Lao Sr.
