In a video circulating on social media, it shows OFWs with belongings scattered on the floor as they grieve the loss of their hard-earned belongings on their arrival at the NAIA.
Andrew Montes, a deported OFW was complaining about his missing watches and smartphone, which according to him, are amounting to around P60,000. It is worth all of his earnings in working abroad until he was deported and most probably all that he has to start his life in his home country.

There are many cases where the culprits are caught on CCTV cameras but the same incidents happen every time in spite of the Manila International Airport Authority Chief Ed Monreal's assurance that they will do anything to stop such things from happening again at the airport under his watch.

Update:
Meanwhile, Manila International Airport Authority Chief Ed Monreal said that upon review of the footages from CCTV and personnel body cams, they found no signs of irregularity at the NAIA. 
It was further observed from records that eleven (11) previous Saudia Airline flights yielded several reports from Filipino deportees saying they lost items from their luggage which were checked-in by Saudi authorities. 
Monreal also appeals to people like Mr. Andrew Montes to use social media responsibly to avoid spreading baseless allegations which drag the whole country to degradation.

ur fervent warning to all: do not trust anyone you only knew over the internet.  Being compassionate is one of the good traits of the Filipinos especially the overseas Filipino workers (OFW). They could not help but extend help when they know that somebody needed it badly.  The downside of it is that they are being vulnerable to abuse. Just like an OFW who was victimized by a scammer whom he only knew on social media. The suspect asked him to give money over reasons he only made up and ran away with a sum of P4 million.     Ads     Sponsored Links  The suspect was arrested by the operatives of the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) Anti-Graft Division following the complaints of his OFW victim, Dale (real name withheld) that he made up stories to gain the victim's compassion and extort money from the poor victim.  The suspect, Jason Rabe, was arrested inside a mall.  Dale narrated that he was giving cash to the suspect in multiple occasions since last year.  Rabe told the OFW that he needed money for the hospitalization of his sibling. He also told the OFW that his parents and his other sibling died just recently.  In total, including the money he sent for an alleged business investment, the suspect took P4 million cash from the OFW victim.  With growing suspicion, the OFW finally investigated and found out that there was no business investment and all the stories that the suspect was telling him were all nonexistent and made up by the suspect to extort cash from him.  NBI Anti-Graft Division acting chief Nathaniel Ramos warns the public to be very cautious, observant and vigilant especially on those people whom you only knew online Rabe is now caressing the iron bars in effect of violation to Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012 and estafa charges.

A Filipino woman faked her own death and stole her sister’s identity just to apply for a passport. Unfortunately, she is now about to lose her U.S. citizenship. Identity theft is a serious crime.      Ads  Sponsored Links  A 43-year-old Emilita Arindela, of Mount Desert Island, was sentenced to 10 days in jail for making a false statement on her passport application in federal court in Maine. It’s unclear if she will be stripped off of her American citizenship by federal authorities but it is more likely to happen.  Prosecutors say Arindela was already married when she married an American man in 2000. She moved to the U.S. in 2002 and later became a naturalized citizen, using her sister’s name. Arindela left her second husband and married another man in 2007.  Arindela’s lawyer says his client escaped an abusive marriage in the Philippines and has been a obedience to the US laws.

In spite of the rising prices of commodities and services and others due to the high inflation rate, many Filipinos believe that the country is on the right track. Just recently, the new minimum fare is being set to P10 while the minimum wage remains stuck. That is what the latest SWS survey indicates.      Ads      Sponsored Links   The latest survey shows that from 70% in the second quarter of this year, the statistics went up to 75%.  On the other hand, only 22% believed the Philippines is in the wrong path while 3% of the 1,500 respondents did not give an answer during the conducted survey.  Malacañang welcomes this result as a vindication that the administration is doing their job the keep the country on track.  “PRRD emphasized in numerous occasions that as government workers, we are here to serve the people. Our objective as public servants is thus being able to perform our respective duties well,” Presidential spokesperson Salvador Panelo said.  “Therefore, we treat the results of this recent survey not as an accolade but as an inspiration for our men and women in the government as they persist in carrying on with their roles in the service,” Panelo added.  According to the presidential spokesperson, the strong public appreciation would further engage the Filipino people in supporting the Duterte administration in building “a nation where all Filipinos can experience comfortable and decent lives under a trustworthy government.” Filed under the category of commodities and services, high inflation rate, Filipinos, minimum fare, minimum wage, SWS survey

No doubt, Saudi Arabia is still a top destination for Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs) for many years now. But with the implementation of Saudization, the "world" of OFWs and other expatriates in Saudi Arabia is getting smaller. Started in 2011 up to now, the Kingdom is slowly limiting some jobs to their locals to boost local employment of Saudis. This includes jobs that former belong to OFWs and other expats.  This 2018, another batch of job categories in Saudi Arabia will be limited to locals or their nationals by the end of the year. The Saudi Labor and Social Development Ministry has issued an order that limits 12 jobs and different shops only to their citizens. It means expat workers are no longer allowed to apply for these jobs.   According to ministry spokesman Khaled Aba Al Khail, starting September 11, 2018, no expats will be allowed to work in car and motorbike shops, men's and children's wear, home and office furniture, and home utensils.  This will be followed by Saudization on shops that sells electronics and electric appliances, watches, and eyeglasses that will take effect on November 9, this year.  This is not the end yet, because, by January next year, Saudi Arabia will also nationalize jobs at medical equipment, building materials, car spare parts, carpet and rugs and confectionary shops. This will start on January 7, 2019.  Saudization starts in 2011 as part of the Kingdom's initiative to encourage Saudi national to work in the private sector.

Tanim-Bala, Still Alive At NAIA?

The most notorious modus victimizing the passengers especially the overseas Filipino workers (OFW) at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport  (NAIA) aside from baggage pilferage is the bullet planting or "tanim-bala" where the suspects deliberately slide-in a bullet on passengers baggage without the knowledge of the baggage owner. During the x-ray baggage check, with the passenger totally unaware of it, the bullet will be found at the baggage and the poor passenger will be held under the airport security unless they will give something in exchange of not being offloaded. In many cases, the victims were offloaded and not able to board their flights on time and they end up spending more on their flight rebookings aside from being asked to pay for the fine for illegally carrying an ammunition.
After last years tanim-bala issues, people who are bound to use the airport became conscious and careful, wrapping their every baggage with layers of plastic wrap to prevent the scammers from planting bullets into their luggage.

OFW Help Desks From TESDA Now Available at International Airports

For the service of overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) and to inform them of the free technical vocational (tech-VOC) courses they can avail for free, the Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA) has  now set up desks at the country’s international airports, including the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) Terminals 1 and 3, Mactan-Cebu International Airport, Clark International Airport, and Davao International Airport.

For the service of overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) and to inform them of the free technical vocational (tech-VOC) courses they can avail for free, the Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA) has  now set up desks at the country’s international airports, including the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) Terminals 1 and 3, Mactan-Cebu International Airport, Clark International Airport, and Davao International Airport.  Advertisement        Sponsored Links     The Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA) has put up desks catering to overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) at the country’s international airports. This is to better inform the OFWs of the assistance they can get from the government agency.  TESDA specialist Nelson Efren told the Philippine News Agency (PNA) on Thursday that TESDA’s assistance to OFWs is not limited to the repatriated ones and those who are from Kuwait.  “Any OFW can avail of TESDA’s assistance. It was the directive of (TESDA) Director General Guiling Mamondiong to prioritize the OFWs,” he said.  Efren added that the OFWs also need retraining and skills upgrade, whether or not they opt to stay.  Specifically, TESDA has placed the OFWs’ desks at the Mactan-Cebu International Airport, Clark International Airport, Davao International Airport, and at the Terminals 1 and 3 of the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA).  The OFWs’ desks were mounted in NAIA on Wednesday, May 16.  TESDA Director General Guiling Mamondiong earlier announced that the agency would prioritize the repatriated OFWs in its free technical vocational (tech-voc) courses.  Mamondiong also instructed the agency’s district, provincial, and regional directors to provide retraining assistance to the distressed OFWs, particularly those from Kuwait.  The agency earlier announced it would provide free training, assessment, training support fund, food, and transportation allowance of PHP100 per day to repatriated OFWs.  The OFW desks are open from Mondays through Fridays. Efren said these are open throughout the day, but the time when the desk would open or close depends on the flight details of the returning OFWs.  Basically, the desks were mounted to guide the OFWs about the courses available from TESDA, and how they can avail of these.  OFWs can also get a “Certificate of Commitment” at the desks.  For those who plan to stay here in the Philippines for good, they can get this certificate to avail of TESDA’s Training for Work Scholarship Program (TWSP),” he said.  He explained that availing of the TWSP is tailored for those who plan to go into entrepreneurship.  “Because under the TWSP, scholars are also provided with toolkits. This is suitable for those who would like to take baking, manicure-pedicure, dressmaking courses, for example, because they will be given toolkits, which they could use right away for business,” Efren explained.  Efren, who was manning the desk at NAIA Terminal 1 on Thursday, said three OFWs got a certificate there, while only one OFW availed of the certificate on Wednesday.  “Maybe because the desk is still new. Most of the OFWs who have approached us (today) were asking information and direction,” commented Eden Tugade, who was also manning the desk at NAIA Terminal 1.  Both Tugade and Efren said only about 25 OFWs approached the desk at NAIA Terminal 1 on Wednesday.
