The Philippines will not apologize for the shelters it provided distressed social workers fleeing their employers in Kuwait, the Department of Foreign Affairs has said.
According to JP Soriano's report on "24 Oras", this developed even after the country announced the indefinite suspension of visas for Filipino skilled workers.
“Hindi tayo hihingi ng tawad..? Eh pinoprotektahan lang natin yung mga kababayan natin,” Foreign Affairs Undersecretary Eduardo de Vega said. Among the violations, the Kuwaiti Interior Ministry said, are the housing workers in shelters, searching for runaways without involving state institutions, communicating with Kuwaiti citizens without permission from authorities, and pressuring Kuwaiti employers to add clauses to employment contracts.
President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. earlier rejected the idea of imposing a total deployment ban against Kuwait, saying the Philippine government would continue to negotiate with the Gulf state to improve the situation.
