“Filipinos leave their country to work abroad because they have to, not because they have no opportunities in their country.”

-- PNoy

I do not know why the Philippines is graced with an idiot for a president

Filipinos leave their country  to work abroad because the opportunities in their own country does not pay enough to cover everything they need in life. If the opportunities paid enough they we will stay.

That's the simple explanation. Gets mo?

Compare salaries here and abroad for a domestic helper or a basic construction worker then maybe, just maybe, you’ll get my drift. If not then please do not assume you can speak for the OFWs because you’re not one of us.
