[Title] => DOLE rules out employment ban in UAE despite reports of abuse
[Summary] => Filipinos will not be banned from working in the United Arab Emirates despite reports of abuses against Filipino workers in that Persian Gulf country, the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) said yesterday.
Labor Secretary Patricia Sto. Tomas said a ban would only worsen the situation.
"Imposing a ban would only force our workers to enter UAE illegally which would expose them to greater danger," she said.

[Title] => 81 deported Pinoys arrive from Malaysia
[Summary] => ZAMBOANGA CITY — Eighty-one Filipinos deported by Malaysia arrived in this port city aboard a commercial ferry on Saturday.
The deportees, accompanied by 11 Malaysian officials, were immediately brought to the local office of the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) to have their documents processed.
After meeting with DSWD officials, the Malaysian team flew back to Malaysia.
Saturday’s arrival is part of regular commercial ferries for Filipinos arrested in Malaysia’s ongoing crackdown against illegal aliens.

[Title] => Metro workers to get P30 COLA
