00:00 More than 700 Filipinos in New Zealand lost their jobs this Christmas.

00:05 Because of the closure of their company, they are now receiving help, especially in the expense of their expenses.

00:12 Raffi Tima was in touch.

00:14 The Filipinos are now having problems in Christchurch in New Zealand.

00:20 After the sudden closure of their company, Ella Group of Companies,

00:24 they are now being considered as carpenters of the company.

00:26 Four days before Christmas and one day before they got their pay, they were suddenly told that the company will be closed.

00:33 We were told that we will be going home in the morning.

00:35 They told us not to go home.

00:40 They told us that we have a Zoom meeting.

00:45 What did they say in the Zoom meeting?

00:48 They said that the company will be closed.

00:55 More than 700 Filipinos are working in Ella.

00:58 Many of them are less than a year old when they arrived in New Zealand.

01:01 They have a working visa of three years but they cannot transfer their jobs immediately.

01:06 We are waiting for the operation of our visa, when our new visa will be released.

01:11 While we are waiting, this and that.

01:14 Because they were not paid their two-week salary, many of them have no money to spend.

01:19 They are now going home to fish, just to eat.

01:22 In addition to the food that the Filipino women are giving.

01:25 The Filipino who is operating the company is asking us to let them work until they are paid.

01:32 If you have a job, just tell us and we will talk about it.

01:39 Ella promised that they will pay their left-over salary but they cannot say when.

01:45 If the area is closed, until when will it be?

01:49 You have no plan to go home?

01:51 We are still here. We need to get our salary.

01:54 Do you have a lot of debt in the Philippines?

01:56 GMI Integrated News is trying to get Ella's salary.

02:00 The Philippine Embassy in New Zealand has already sent help to some Filipinos who lost their jobs.

02:05 They started to distribute 600 U.S. dollars or more than P30,000 since last week.

02:12 These OFWs are calling on the Christ Church and their relatives here in the Philippines.

02:17 Don't worry about their situation. But hopefully, they will receive government help and they will find a new job.

02:25 We are just laughing but it's painful. We don't have anything to send.

02:31 For GMA Integrated News, Rafi Timan, for Tutok, 24 hours.
