Vargas Thu, 04 Oct 2007 08:45:59 +0000 #comment-8 The situation of our OFWs, particularly the women who work as domestic helpers in the Middle East (e.g. Saudi & Kuwait) and who suffered traumatic experiences of rape and other domestic violence should be addressed by none other than our foreign ministry. Even now, they can't locate Melissa, who was raped by her employer's son. And our own staff in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the Philippine embassy, have yet to find out who she is or what happened to her. This is how weak our counry is. If only our forefathers did not ask for independence, we wouldn't be in this kind of a mess.

Or does it mearely mean that he has agreed to take up the matter with Arroyo? I have not seen the online petition. Can anyone out there tell me where I can find it?

We have tons of it, if the will and determination to win is there. sure, the boxers have stared gold in the face. but a gymnastics gold is bumping along near the surface. what say you, noel? noel novicio could add gymnastics to his list of olympic sports in which we have gold medal potential
