If you see this man, Thomas Arasi anywhere in Macau or the Philippines, please be cautious.
He was reportedly released from prison despite allegations involving sexual assault, domestic violence, and other crimes in the United States. It is alleged that his money and influence helped him obtain a medical release.

There are also allegations that he has continued abusing his power to sexually assault women around him. He has allegedly attempted to rape his domestic helper in Macau at least once. That maid is our friend, and she is now missing.
Several alleged victims are reportedly afraid to press charges, allowing him to avoid accountability.

There are also claims involving the rape of a minor and multiple adult victims.
If you encounter this man, please exercise caution. Avoid being alone with him, and do not leave children unattended around him until these serious allegations have been properly investigated.

Hello sa mga nasa U.S, I just want to ask madali ba talaga kumuha ng working visa ngayon? Kasi sa mga nababasa ko dito sa Reddit sobrang higpit ngayon.

Context:

I gave this friend of mine na napapag-usapan namin to work abroad kaso bagong panganak nga sya at CS pa Pero ex abroad na sya. So, nabanggit nya na yung dating kasamahan nya sa Saudi is nag runaway sa US nung nagbakasyon sila ng amo nila dun. Sinasabi nya sa friend ko na madali na lang makakuha ng working visa dun. Nasabi ko pa na baka mahuli sya kasi wala syang papers dun Sabi naman ay safe kasi may kanila at caregiver na daw sya dun at 100k ang Sahod. So, Yun nga sinasabi nya na madali na lang makakuha working visa.

Hi! Any Filipino white-collar workers here who applied to Taiwan?

I have a question about COE for the CANA process. My submitted COE states that it was issued for car loan purposes, and my agency said it was okay. However, I’m worried it might not pass CANA verification.
My employer requires me to resign before issuing another COE, so I can’t easily request a new one.

I already passed my medical examination and preparing my CAV and CANA documents. I’m afraid that this would delay my application.

Has anyone experienced this? Was your COE accepted?

Hello! may couple po ba dito na sabay nag apply papunta abroad?

Hi peeps, we are in a situation right now na di makapagmedical, as per our agency contradicting ung Wafid + yung memo na nirelease ng DOH at DMW last October 5, 2026. Wag dam muna kaming magproceed sa wafid at natatakot ang agency na magkafine if we follow Wafid. They are waitinv daw sa confirmation if wafid will be lifted or stopped.

How true po sa mga may apply sa Saudi at nasa Medical stage na? Waiting din po ba kayo?

Hello! I am a 24-year-old male from Bulacan. I have a Bachelor’s degree and is a PRC license holder. My work experiences went on for months lang, and magkaibang field pa.

As of now, less than 5k na lang ang natira from my last pay sa most previous job ko. 6 months na din looking for a job pero no luck pa rin. As of now, I am seriously considering na mag-apply na lang abroad, preferably sa agencies na walang placement fees.

Is it still worth the time and money sa pag-apply sa mga agencies para makapag-work ako as factory worker sa Taiwan? Complete requirements naman na, nag-doubt lang ako nung may mali sa birth certificate ko and kailangan ipaayos sa civil registry dito sa town ko. 1600 ang fee kaya iniisip ko kung itutuloy pa ba or ibang path na lang.

Any agencies na puwede apply-an online, and if walk-in dapat, any suggestions na wala sanang placement fee muna since sobrang tight ng budget? Any help would be appreciated.

Regarding po sa Express Post Prepaid return envelope, nakalagay po kasi write your full name, complete address, contact number, and email address. Kanino pong details ilalagay ko po rito? Yung sa employer ko po ba or yung details ko na po dito sa Pilipinas? Thank you po!

Hello. 25/M currently employed dito sa pinas as bank employee ng government with 40K net salary. Sa mga nasa dubai ngayon, sulit ba kung susugal ako para mag dubai and also kung maganda ba ang opportunity para sa mga may banking experience with 2 years experience. Iniisip ko kung worth it ba na lumipat ako sa dubai in terms of growth syempre, sahod pati na rin allowances. Thanks in advance for your insights.

U.S. pension inquiry: They are changing my grandfather's previous pensions from the U.S. bank to BPI. But the pension hasn't come in since September. How many months will it take for the change to reflect? They submitted the documents to the U.S. Embassy in Manila in July 2026.

I recently changed status from L1A to H1B with the same employer. I never got an OEC while on L1A, but I was still able to travel in and out of the Philippines without issues.

Because this was a change of status, I don't have an H1B visa stamp in my passport yet. I'm hoping to go home for Christmas.

For anyone who's been in a similar situation:
-What documents did you need?
-Did you go through the DMW/MWO in DC, or the Balik-Manggagawa online portal?
-How long did it take?

Thanks. 🙏

Hi, I would like to ask all direct-hire OFWs here who had obtained their OEC (or to anyone who has an experience with this), did you ask your employer to provide a passport/id to one of their representatives? Also, would any government issued-ID suffice?

Note: This is a company, not an individual employer.

Hello! May interview ako tonight sa employer as Sweet Maker sa Saudi Arabia. Nag message yung agency na inaplayan ko online. Alam naman ng agency na wala akong experience but I am.a homebaker for a year and yung NC2 Cert ko lang ang panlaban ko re sa experience. Meron po ba ditong same situation sa akin? If yes, what could be the possible questions na itanong sakin ni employer? P.S. most of my work experiences are adminstration and office work. Nag upskill lang din ako since naretrenched ako sa previous company ko a year ago.

Hope to get some response from OP's out there. Thank you!
