[Title] => Pinoys in Korea face job loss
[Summary] => Some 12,800 Filipino workers in South Korea are likely to lose their jobs and face forcible repatriation as Seoul launches a crackdown on undocumented foreign workers.
The Migrante International (MI) said the South Korean government has implemented since March a voluntary registration program for unauthorized foreigners, requiring illegal entrants to voluntarily leave the country or face arrest.
"There is fear that this scheme is being used to justify the systematic arrest and deportation of undocumented workers," said MI secretary-general Poe Gratela.

[Title] => Halaga ng passport tataas
[Summary] => Kinondena kahapon ng Migrante International at iba pang nakabalik nang manggagawang Pilipino sa bansa ang napipintong panggagatas ng salapi sa mga OFWs dahil sa pagtataas sa singil sa pasaporte kaugnay ng paglilipat sa pribadong sektor sa produksiyon ng pasaporte.
Sinabi ng Migrante na tataas kaagad sa halagang P1,500 ang singil sa passport fee sa pagkakagawad ng kontrata sa BCA International, isang pribadong kontratista na nakakuha ng P2 bilyong kontrata para gumawa ng "high-tech passport."
