PH, Liberia Boost Labor and Maritime Partnership

The Department of Migrant Workers (DMW) and Liberia's Ministry of Labour are working to strengthen cooperation in promoting safe and ethical migration, with a focus on protecting the rights and welfare of both land-based and sea-based overseas Filipino workers (OFWs). DMW Secretary Hans Leo J. Cacdac recently met with Liberian Labour Minister Hon. Cllr. Cooper W. Kruah, Sr., along with Liberian Maritime Authority Deputy Commissioner John F. Harvey, to explore a bilateral labor agreement between the two nations. Recognized as a strategic gateway to West Africa, Liberia offers potential in both labor opportunities and maritime importance. Many Filipino seafarers serve aboard Liberia-flagged ships passing through the Freeport of Monrovia—a vital safe anchorage and boarding point for international voyages. The strengthened partnership will enhance labor protection, ensure compliance with global maritime labor standards, and improve welfare support for OFWs. For land-based workers, the bilateral pact will promote fair recruitment, safeguard labor rights, and expand access to welfare services. Secretary Cacdac's visit marks the first by a high-ranking Philippine official to Liberia in pursuit of safe, orderly, and regular migration. This initiative aligns with President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr.'s goal of deepening labor relations with host countries while upholding ethical recruitment practices. The Philippine delegation included senior DMW officials and was supported by the Philippine Honorary Consul in Liberia.

Palace to VP Sara: Foreign Trips Won't Solve PH Problems

Malacañang has responded to Vice President Sara Duterte's remarks defending her foreign travels, in which she claimed that Filipino communities abroad were frustrated with the country's situation. Palace Press Officer and Communications Undersecretary Atty. Claire Castro said such frustration is understandable since President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. remains in the Philippines working to address national issues and fight corruption, while the Vice President is frequently on personal trips. Castro stressed that traveling is not the Vice President's duty under the Constitution and should not be used as a platform to criticize or undermine the President. 'Traveling will not solve the country's problems,' she said. The Vice President earlier explained that her trips abroad were partly to visit her detained father and to engage with frustrated Filipino communities overseas. Castro also addressed online claims regarding an alleged trip to Kuwait, saying some videos were edited, creating fake news. She accused the Vice President's camp of repeatedly becoming a source of misinformation due to such edited materials. Last week, Castro stated that the Palace had no information on the Vice President's whereabouts.

16 Distressed OFWs from Jeddah Safely Repatriated to the Philippines

Sixteen distressed overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) from Jeddah have returned safely to the Philippines, arriving at Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) Terminal 1 in Pasay City on August 11, 2025, via Saudi Airlines flight SV870 at 9:15 p.m. They were welcomed by Migrant Workers Assistant Secretary Maria Regina Angela Galias, along with officials from the Department of Migrant Workers (DMW), OIC-Chief Noemi Tañag of the Overseas Workers Welfare Administration (OWWA), and the Manila International Airport Authority (MIAA) Medical Team. OWWA will provide them with free temporary shelter or hotel accommodation for one to three days, as well as complimentary plane tickets to their respective provinces. The repatriated workers also received immediate medical care and financial assistance to support their reintegration into their families and communities. The repatriation was made possible through the coordinated efforts of the DMW–MWO and OWWA Jeddah, in partnership with the Philippine Consulate General, in line with President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr.'s directive to prioritize the welfare of OFWs.
