SINGAPORE &#8211; A devoted Filipino maid inherited 6 million Singapore dollars (about US$4.3 million) from her late employer after more than 20 years of service, a newspaper report said Wednesday.
&#8220;I am the luckiest maid in Singapore, with or without the money,&#8221; the 47-year-old single woman &#8212; identified only by the pseudonym &#8220;Christine&#8221; &#8212; told the Straits Times in an interview.
The maid refused to be named in public for fear of possible threats to her life in the impoverished Philippines, where wealthy people have been kidnapped for ransom and some killed ...]]></description>

MANILA — The Philippines said Wednesday it had banned Filipinos from travelling to work in 41 countries and territories that had allegedly failed to provide enough safeguards to protect them from abuse.
The Department of Labour and Employment in a board resolution posted on its website said the blacklisted countries failed to sign international conventions protecting foreign workers.
Neither have these countries signed bilateral agreements with the Philippines “on the protection of the rights of overseas Filipino workers,” the resolution said.
They also do not have their own laws protecting foreign workers, the ...]]></description>

Bago ko simulan ang aking makabagbag-damdaming pagbulusok ng aking saloobin ukol kay James Soriano, basahin muna ang kanyang mabilis na pinahing artikulo na iniwasto naman (grammatically) ni Migs Bassig sa link na ito:

Pilipinas nalugmok ka sa kahirapan
Naiwanan ka na ng kaunlaran
Kapayapaan hindi pa rin matagpuan
Kahit natapos, paghahari ng isang ngalan.
Naglingkod sa iyo ang isang ina
Puno ng pag-asa, puno din ng kudeta
Sunod sa dikta ng “masa” at simbahan
Ganap na liwanag di naman natagpuan.
Pinasakay ka naman ng isang heneral
Ang lipad sa ibang bansa ay madalas
Kaysa sa mga probinsyang hirap ay dinaranas
Kayraming scam, katotohanang di nailabas.
Lumabas ang nag-angking anak ng masa
Sumigaw, “walang kaibigan kapag nagkasala”
Subalit siya ang nahatulang nagkasala
Dahil sa korapsyon at jueteng payola.
Siyam na taon kang pinaikot sa kamay
Isang munting nilalang, malago ang galamay

Malaysian police arrested this week two suspects in the killing of a Filipina helper in Petaling Jaya last month, a Malaysian news site reported Saturday.
Star Online quoted Petaling Jaya district police officer in charge Arjunaidi Mohamed as saying a love triangle appeared to have led to the killing of the Filipina, who was not immediately identified in the report.
“We believe that both men, who were in a relationship with the deceased, resorted to killing her because they were jealous,&#8221; according to the report, citing Mohamed.
He said the two men were ...]]></description>

Filipinos are certainly getting into mainstream America and into the world. With an estimated 4 million Filipino-American population (as of 2007), Filipinos are an emerging group in a diverse society in the United States.
Filipino talents like Manny Pacquiao, Charice Pempengco, Arnel Pineda, Lea Salonga, and Monique Lhuiller are doing a great job pitching in!
David Letterman, apparently used Filipino-Americans in one of his segments.

Published: June 22, 2011
One August morning nearly two decades ago, my mother woke me and put me in a cab. She handed me a jacket. &#8220;Baka malamig doon&#8221; were among the few words she said. (&#8220;It might be cold there.&#8221;) When I arrived at the Philippines&#8217; Ninoy Aquino International Airport with her, my aunt and a family friend, I was introduced to a man I&#8217;d never seen. They told me he was my uncle. He held my hand as I boarded an airplane for the first time. ...]]></description>

Better, refuse any type of “padala” even from anybody. If you choose to bring it with you, inspect the “padala” especially, the “maleta”. This is not just for OFW’s. This is also for all of you–Overseas Filipinos. Sabi nga: “If it’s too good to be true? Hindi yan totoo.”
It&#8217;s sad that three OFW&#8217;s will be executed in China. I was reading the news about it ...]]></description>

MANILA, Philippines – After being initially turned down, China has finally agreed to allow Vice President Jejomar Binay to visit Beijing. This is a last ditch effort to salvage the lives of three Filipino OFWs who are set to be executed due to drug trafficking in China.
The message was relayed through the Philippine Embassy in Beijing, stating China’s readiness to receive vice president Binay.
The vice president will leave Friday morning at 7:15 a.m. and is set to meet up with the president of the Supreme Court and the Chinese Executive ...]]></description>
