OFWs from Qatar and Jeddah
« on: April 14, 2010, 06:22:56 AM »
One hundred thirteen distressed Filipinos from Jeddah and Qatar have been repatriated in four batches over the last two weeks, the Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) said in a news release Tuesday.

In his report to the DFA, Consul General in Jeddah Ezzedin Tago said that 76 Filipinos housed at the Hajj Terminal were able to come home in four batches over the Holy Week.

Thirty-six repatriates comprised the first batch, who arrived in Manila on March 31, while the second batch of nine arrived the next day. The third batch of 22 Filipinos arrived on April 2, and another nine arrived the next day.

These repatriates were housed at the so-called Hajj Terminal, a center run by the Consulate General and the Overseas Workers Welfare Administration (OWWA). It is a part of an arrangement with the Saudi government to spare Filipinos from the heat and loitering under the Kandara Bridge.

Meanwhile, 37 distressed overseas Filipino workers arrived from Qatar on the morning of April 8.

They were welcomed and assisted at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport by DFA Office of the Undersecretary for Migrant Workers Affairs (DFA-OUMWA) executive director Enrico Fos, and a team from the DFA-OUMWA and the OWWA. - inquirer.net

John 3:16-18 ESV
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son (Jesus Christ), that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.
