“From a government hat treats its people as an export commodity and a means to earn foreign exchange, disregarding the social cost to Filipino families to a government that creates jobs at home so that working abroad will be a choice rather than a necessity and when its citizens do choose to become Overseas Filipino Workers, their welfare and protection will still be the government’s priority”. “Invest in our country’s top resource, our human resource, to make us more competitive and employable while promoting industrial peace based on social justice.”
