I worked hard for my savings and the least I could do is deny a corrupt administration easy access to them. OFWs are being treated like cattle. Instead of doubling its efforts to improve the local economy and keep a lot of the OFWs home, it seems that this administration prefers that our workers stay out of the country. We're paying a high social cost for such short-sighted policy. I send money to the Philippines but I don’t go through the official channels.
