[Title] => Taiwan shuts doors on Filipino workers
[Summary] =>
Filipino domestic helpers and other skilled workers will be barred from working in Taiwan starting next year.
Last week, Taiwan’s Council of Labor Affairs (CLA) announced plans to exclude the Philippines from the 80,000 quota for migrant workers, according to Jackson Gan, president of the Filipino Manpower Agencies Accredited to Taiwan.
"The CLA already posted in its website that Filipinos are not qualified to apply for the 80,000 visas to be given to migrant workers, and thus they can no longer work there," he said.

[Title] => Government to lift ban on OFW deployment to Lebanon
[Summary] =>
The Philippine Overseas Employment Administration (POEA) will lift the ban on the deployment of Filipino workers to Lebanon once the new guidelines on the training of overseas-bound domestic workers are approved.
POEA Administrator Rosalinda Baldoz admitted the deployment ban has resulted in the illegal entry of Filipino maids in Lebanon.
Lebanese traders are reportedly offering Filipino recruiters P75,000 to P100,000 and an "incentive fee’’ of $2,000 for every worker deployed.
