                    [Summary] => The remaining members of the Philippine humanitarian contingent will complete their pullout from Iraq today, a full month ahead of schedule, Foreign Affairs Secretary Delia Albert said yesterday.


In a statement, Albert said the remaining members of the Philippine contingent would make an "exit call" on the Polish commander of the international peacekeeping forces in Iraq in the morning to formalize their complete withdrawal from the command before taking a flight home.


"The remaining members of the Philippine humanitarian contingent are finalizing the turnover of their responsibilities," she said.


Albert said Special Envoy to the Middle East Roy Cimatu will accompany the Filipino troops in the exit call on the Polish commander at Camp Charlie in Babil, Iraq.
