Transcript
00:00 Senator Rafi Tulfo nominated the Department of Migrant Workers
00:04 to lead the transfer of the former OFWs to Saudi Arabia
00:09 who have not yet been paid their wages.
00:12 Tulfo believes that it is impossible for the Saudi government to pay the Filipino workers right away
00:18 because there are also many other people who lost their jobs.
00:22 The DMW should also announce when the wages of the OFWs will be paid.
00:30 DMW Undersecretary Dino Olalya also stopped the visit and talks of Secretary Susan Ople
00:37 to the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia who promised to pass a fund for the delayed wages of the Filipinos.
00:43 Tulfo said that the promise of the Crown Prince could be a reminder.
00:48 According to the Department of Foreign Affairs, the Philippine Embassy in Saudi Arabia said
00:53 that it is impossible to distribute the wages this year.
00:56 It is said that the official of the Saudi and the DMW may have been lost in translation.
