DOCUMENTATION CLOSURE REPORT

February 02, 2012, I talked with Brother Hussain ng Dawah Yanbu na tumulong kay Rogelio Monia. Ang sabi nya ay nakauwi na daw ito last friday. I asked him kung sino ang donor ang sagot ni Bro Hussein ay yong Saudi na naging kasama ni Rogelio Monia sa loob ng kulongan at nangako sa kanya na kung makalaya sya ay tutulongan sya sa bloodmoney. Brother Hussein confirmed to us na nagawa ni OFW Monia ang mga sumusunod bilang patunay ng kanyang pagbagong buhay.

Remittances and transnational families in Italy and The Philippines: breaking the global care chain
Charito Basa*, Wendy Harcourt & Angela Zarro
DOI: 10.1080/13552074.2011.554196
Version of record first published: 17 Mar 2011

This article describes the situation over the last 30 years of women migrants from the Philippines in Italy, who have been caught in what many have called the ‘global care chain’. The pressure to send remittances back home is locking these women even further into the global care chain, with not only economic, but social and cultural consequences. Based on interviews and official data available on Filipina migrants, and learning from the activities of the Filipino Women’s Council (FWC), the article relates the story of migrant women’s difficulties caring for families across continents. It is important to re-think gender and development by taking into account migration and care work as a transnational reality, which breaks down neat conceptual divides between ‘development’ and ‘migration’.

Mga mahahalagang impormasyon na dapat matutunan ng mga OFWs sa Saudi Arabia

Lahat ba talaga ng problema ng OFws ay sa embassy natin iaasa? Hindi kaya may pagkukulang din tayo sa ating sarili. Hindi tayo naghanda bago pumunta dito. Kulang sa kaalaman kung papano ipaglaban ang ating mga karapatan. Hindi kaya masyadong nagtiwala lang sa sarili kaya napahamak? Or
