2 months ago

Nakakulong at iniimbestigahan ngayon sa South Korea ang dalawang Pilipinong caregiver na nilayasan umano ang employer para maghanap ng ibang trabaho. ‘Yan ay kahit nasa unang buwan pa lang sila sa ilalim ng caregiver program ng gobyerno roon.

00:00The two Philippine caregivers are now in jail and are being investigated in South Korea.

00:04The employer was fired to look for another job.

00:08They are only in their first month under the caregiver program of the government there.

00:13Maris was able to escape.

00:18In the land of K-pop in South Korea where a lot of Filipinos are living,

00:23Arlene Ponce would also like to achieve her dream.

00:27But it's not just to get married, but also to get a job.

00:30Especially since she is a caregiver and a registered midwife.

00:33It's a big challenge for me.

00:35I also want to get there because I heard that South Korea is beautiful.

00:43I want to apply all the experiences that I have here in the Philippines.

00:52But the dream doesn't seem to be in vain, even if it's not completely fulfilled.

00:57Two of the 100 Filipino caregivers sent to South Korea

01:01as part of the six-month pilot program of the government

01:04left their jobs in the first month of their contract there.

01:09They are having a hard time because they are overworked.

01:11They saw a job that offered employment as a cleaner.

01:17So that's where they got caught, in their new employer.

01:21When they got caught, they were brought to the Immigration Authority in Busan.

01:26The two were imprisoned in South Korean Immigration while being investigated.

01:31It's a bit of a paradox in the sense that we have to go through the process of investigating the two.

01:36In terms of timeline, we can't answer yet because we don't know when their investigation will end.

01:42If that's what happened now, it's very disappointing.

01:49The two Filipinos who were imprisoned will receive legal assistance.

01:52And if they are deported, they will receive financial assistance from the Action Fund

01:55of the DMW for the distressed workers.

01:58The two caregivers who were deported were considered an isolated case

02:03by the Philippines and South Korea.

02:06The DMW and the Korean Ministry of Employment and Labor are currently assessing the program

02:12to address the issues and problems that arose in the first part of the agreement.

02:17For GEMA Integrated News, I'm Maris Umali for 24 Hours.
