Two OFW File Rape Complain

Working abroad especially in Middle East is not easy. Many of our OFW experienced bitter life their longing for their loved ones in the Philippines. Some of these OFW end up parting each other and the children are the worst victim of this tragedy. Anyway that is just a small problem because aside from their family in the Philippines these OFW or Overseas Filipino Workers are prone to abuse mostly by their Boss or sponsor. Many women are usually the victims of rape especially if they are domestic helper because they stay in the Villa alone so no one can help or protect them from their employer.

Just now I read in the News website that two OFW file a rape complain with the help of the Philippines Embassy in Kuwait because they allegedly said that they were raped by two Kuwaitis. According to the news these two Filipino ladies where brought to their cells since they ran away from their employer while the other has an expired passport. These two ladies are both married and came from Davao City and Cagayan de Oro City in Mindanao.

I just hope that these two expatriates can get justice before they can go home to be with their family. Our government should take good care to our expatriates.
