                    [Summary] => Italy has opened up job opportunities for some 3,000 migrant Filipinos after it granted 170,000 permits for foreign workers under a government decree passed last month.


The Philippine Embassy in Rome reported the Italian government has reserved 3,000 working-immigrant slots for Filipinos under Decree on Immigration Quota for Non-European Union (EU) citizens.


The embassy told the Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) that Italy had passed a decree authorizing non-EU residents, including Filipinos, to work in the country this year.
