This was revealed by a ranking labor official, who said that Philippine Overseas Employment Administration (POEA) head Rosalinda Baldoz and Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA) chief Augusto Syjuco went to Taiwan last week to initiate negotiations on the matter.
The official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, noted that Baldoz and Syjuco discussed with Taiwan’s Council on Labor Affairs (CLA) the possibility deploying more Filipino household service workers there. – Sheila Crisostomo
