Joanna Demafelis dead body arrived to Manila
The Philippines Ambassador to Kuwait Renato Pedro Villa has revealed the details of the meeting between the Foreign Minister of the Philippines and Kuwait’s Ambassador Saleh Musaed Ahmad Al-Thuwaikh in Manila where they discussed the situation of the Filipinos working in Kuwait.
Villa pointed out the two sides have agreed on the importance of a joint meeting next March to sign a new agreement for domestic workers to ensure their rights are protected and they are prevented from any abuse or physical assault. However, he explained the date and place of the meeting has yet to be determined.
He pointed out 900 Filipino violators of the residence law have already left Kuwait, and more than 1,800 of the 3,000 have been given clearance certificates by the Interior Ministry. He indicated, the embassy expects more violators of the law to leave who wish to benefit from the deadline.
Another 113 OFWs arrived on Friday from Kuwait aboard the Philippine Airlines Flight 699.
