KUWAIT has expanded the ban on entry of Filipino workers, and will now include Filipino expatriates who have just been issued visas, a Kuwaiti newspaper said.
They include Rocksteddy who has rescheduled its concert on May 26, and Bamboo who is scheduled to perform in Sheikh Saad Alabdullah Sport Hall Complex in Sabah Al Salem on June 16. “No Filipino expatriate who had been issued a visa earlier may enter. Only Filipinos with valid residency permits are allowed to enter,” the Al Aban added.
The Kuwaiti dailies said the decision came after the Philippine government allegedly violated provisions of the PHL-Kuwait labor agreement.
