MANILA - At least 31 Filipinos working in Myanmar will be repatriated to the Philippines on June 27, Ambassador to Myanmar Eduardo Kapunan Jr. said on Wednesday.

While the political situation in Myanmar is not as worse as in previous months, several Filipinos have to go home due to the COVID-19 situation in the southeast Asian country, Kapunan told state television PTV.

"It means they don't see any much concern about the situation except the rising of COVID situation now going on in Myanmar," he said."Hangga't hindi bumababa sa alert level 2, hindi puwedeng bumalik ang mga Pilipino sa Myanmar because the threat of COVID is still there," he said. "Warrant of arrest issuance is going on almost daily... It is internal but it affects the world as [far as] humanity [is concerned]," he said.
