FLASH REPORT

The migration of Filipinos abroad is a product of extreme

poverty and joblessness in the country that is brought
about the decrepit social system perpetuated by US
neocolonialism. The deepening economic crisis in the
Philippines has simultaneously aggravated the migration
of Filipinos abroad to gargantuan proportion. More than
2,000 migrant Filipinos leave the country each day and
approximately one-third of these are composed of
unskilled workers. They can be found in 182 countries
worldwide.

Filipinos are driven abroad since the government cannot

provide them work. This is not surprising since the
Philippine economy is backward, agrarian, and without
basic industries. Hence, it cannot generate enough
employment for Filipinos. Millions of workers are being
thrown out of their regular jobs as foreign and domestic
capitalists resort to contractualization and downsizing so
as to maintain and generate more profits. Thus,
Phlippines, indeed, is a rich source of cheap labor by
developed countries.

Now here are the following questions: 1.The reasons why Pilipinos are migrating;
1. What are the reasons of why Pilipinos keep on a. Poverty
migrating and working abroad? b. Joblessness in the country
Now, let’s give 5 million claps to group 1. Thank you for c. No unskilled workers hiring
your great flash reporting, everyone take note that OFW d. Government cannot provide work for
are working abroad due to poverty, no offered work in them
country especially to unskilled workers, etc. e. Economy and agrarian cannot provide
basic industries and cannot give
employment to Pilipinos.
Any additional information or questions?
Okay.
2. What are the advantages of our country to those
Overseas Filipino Workers?
Let’s give very good clap to group 2. I appreciate your
Human picture activity which is very clear that you are
depicting or showing on how OFWs help our country by
through their million contributions/ remittances to its
economy.
No ma’am, it’s all clear maam.
Group-2
Human Picture
Migrant Filipinos contribute a lot to the economy
through their remittances. From 1990 to 1995,
remittances of migrant Filipinos were registered at
US$14.543 billion. In 1999 alone, it registered a
high of US$6.9 billion. The government recognizes
this contribution. In fact, they are hailed as "new
economic heroes."
Migrant Filipinos are an exploited lot. The
Philippine government extracts exorbitant fees from
them as requisite to their deployment abroad.
Government rakes in millions daily in the
processing of their papers alone. These include
payments for passports, NBI and medical
clearances, administrative fees, forced contributions
and a litany of other expenses.

expenses.
Group-2
1-2-3 Action
(DRAMA)
The abuses and exploitation they experience in their
place of work are prevalent. These range from contract
violations, rape, sexual harassment, mysterious deaths,
among others. Yearly, hundreds of thousand of Filipinos
are reported to have suffered various forms of abuse and
exploitation in the hands of their employers. Women
migrant workers in particular are most vulnerable to
abuses and maltreatment. They are subjected to sexual
and physical abuses, as in the case of domestic helpers,
while many become victims of white slavery.
Nothing can pronounce the exploitation and abuses
committed against migrant Filipinos than those inflicted
to Flor Contemplacion and Sarah Balabagan. Their cases
opened the eyes of the entire Filipino people and the
international community on the hapless plight of migrant
Filipinos.
The anguish and ordeal of migrant Filipinos continue.
The conditions that confront them necessitate the
continued organizing, education and mobilization work
among their ranks in their struggle for their rights and
welfare, and for genuine freedom and democracy.
3. What are the struggles of OFWs? 3. The struggles that OFWs are facing and
experiencing are as follows (Abuse and

OFWs. Remember class that it’s not easy to work d. Mysterious deaths
abroad because some employer are harsh and
hurting Filipinos through abusive actions like; rape,
sexual harassment, etc.
