The two women were leaving for Kula Lumpur when they were intercepted at Ninoy Aquino International Airport Terminal 3.
MANILA — The Bureau of Immigration on Wednesday reminded Filipinos to go through official channels for overseas work after two women were kept from leaving the country with doctored documents that they paid P75,000 each for.
They were headed to Paris in France with papers that supposedly showed they were officemates at an information technology networking company. "Don't gamble your lifelong savings," Immigration Commissioner Norman Tansingco said, adding Filipinos seeking work abroad should not take shortcuts by dealing with illegal recruiters.
The Philippines has been sending workers abroad for decades because of poor employment prospects in the Philippines and to help buoy the economy with remittances.
