OFWs urged not to remit on Oct 29
MANILA, Philippines — Overseas Filipino workers’ groups will join an international “Zero Remittance Day” on October 29, according to a coalition of migrant labor groups.
The International Migrants Alliance, an alliance composed of 112 grassroots migrants’ organizations worldwide, called on migrant workers on Sunday to withhold sending money home for a day to express their opposition to the 2nd Global Forum on Migration that the Philippines has been set to host from Oct. 28 to Oct. 29.
Eni Lestari, IMA’s chair who is now in Manila, said in a statement that member-groups from sending and destination countries such as the Philippines, Indonesia, Hong Kong, US, Canada, the Netherlands, Italy, Saudi Arabia, Bangladesh, Taiwan, and Australia committed to participate in the activity.
“The Zero Remittance Day principally takes the GFMD to task for being an elitist, anti-migrant forum aimed to perpetuate the greater commodification of migrants worldwide. All over the globe, the growing migrants’ movement views the GFMD as a sham assembly with the sole objective to consolidate and legitimize attacks on migrants’ rights and welfare,” explained Lestari, an Indonesian migrant workers organizer.
Lestari said the GFMD “cannot be expected to become a significant tool to its supposed stakeholders, migrant workers themselves, when it fails to tackle the fundamental problems and issues concerning the unprecedented growing number of migrants.”
IMA will be conducting in Manila its own gathering, the International Assembly of Migrants and Refugees, also on Oct. 28-29, to call for the end of labor export policies, for the creation of jobs at home, and for intensified defense of migrants’ rights.

GIGIT SULIT, survivor philippines
I first met Gigit in one of the opening of an art show “beautiful Sins” which was held at ARTASIA gallery 4th flr MEGAMALL Mandaluyong Philippines. He was savvy and personality is very strong. After that night, Me, Gigit and Elsie established contacts by means of emails and txt messages.
and before our meeting was ended, some of the fans requested to have photos with him.
start of all soul’s day holiday rush
Im sure today people start packing their stuff and heading towards home to visit the grave of their departed loveones.Expect a long queue at bus terminals, airports and ports. Just be careful of your wallet and stuff.Im sure a lot of pickpockets will take chance of chosing a victim because of the crowd. Again–BEWARE! I might just go to Libingan ng mga Bayani on Sunday. c”,)
