TRIPOLI—The Philippines has welcomed the assurance given by authorities in Libya that the salary and other concerns of hundreds of Filipino nurses and other hospital workers there are being addressed.

In a statement issued ahead of the visit to Manila of Libyan Health Minister Ahmed Mohamed Omar, the Philippine Embassy in Tripoli said it is hopeful that problems encountered by Filipinos working in most government hospitals and in some private clinics across Libya would soon be resolved.

These concerns include not only delays in the remittance of salaries and benefits but also delays and in some cases even nonpayment of salaries of the more than 1,000 Filipino nurses and hospital workers in Libya. Minister Omar said a comprehensive review of existing policies in the payment and remittance of salaries and benefits of expatriate health workers is now ongoing and a focal person has been designated to work closely with the Embassy in resolving monetary claims of Filipino hospital workers.

TROJANHORSECHINAINPHILS Strange that they are reacting this way. Weren't they curious when the establishments were being set up? Or even during the 'early days' of the businesses when the signages were put up? Why only now? How long have these establishments been in the 'concerned' areas?

Palace: Zhao’s assertion that PH possibly spying on China is just an opinionMalacañang said that Chinese Ambassador Zhao Jianhua was just expressing an opinion when the latter said that China can also suspect that overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) in their country are actually spies.
