Tribute to employers
Aside from the millions of overseas Filipino
workers (OFWs), the Philippine government also owes gratitude
to many foreign employers who provide OFWs jobs and income
that in the first place made possible their multi-billion
dollar remittances every year. These remittances help sustain
the national economy. In recognition of their role as job
providers, for their trust in Filipino workers’ abilities
and for being partners in the country’s economic stability,
Malacañang and the Department of Labor and Employment
(DOLE) honored for the first time the foreign employers by
giving them the International Employers Awards (IEA) and the
Presidential Award of Distinction (PAD). Full

POLITICS
Terrorized!
He could be no different from any other foreign-based Filipinos.
Browsing through dailies every morning after breakfast, taking
time off to write, going to office after lunch, watching TV
after dinner, sleeping late at night after being subjected
to late night interviews by media practitioners from his homeland.
But then, he’s no ordinary mortal. He is an intellectual,
a ideologue, and more importantly, the most prominent figure
in the Philippine Revolutionary Movement. He is Jose Maria
Sison, and now, he is being terrorized! Full
