Maling Balita Para sa Mga OFWs sa Saudi Arabia

Nabasa natin sa balita kamakailan lang about dito:


John Leonard Monterona of Migrante-Middle East also said, however, that their organization has been receiving reports of OFWs whose passports were stamped “exit only,” despite having exit/re-entry visas. "There were 4 OFW-engineers who have called me and our Migrante officers in Riyadh as they were surprised that their respective exit/re-entry visa had been stamped 'Exit' only by the Saudi immigration officer at the counter," Monterona said in a statement.


Also, this video report: 


Takot nang magbakasyon ang ilang OFWs na nasa Saudi Arabia. Nangangamba sila na wala na silang mababalikang trabaho

Dahil sa iba't ibang news na naglalabasan, and kung sino-sinong nagsasabi na ganito at ganyan, nagpalabas ang Patnubay Riyadh ng sagot sa mga balitang ito. The post below was taken from the Patnubay Riyadh reaction and excerpts to the news above, specifically about "Exit Only" stamping at the airport and was permitted to post it at Kablogs website. Read the full details by clicking the link of the Patnubay Riyadh


‎"Exit Only" na stamp sa Airport? Hindi rin ako makapaniwala na hindi man lang tayo kinontak na dito sa Middle East at matagal na sa Saudi Arabia bilang Kablogs at aktibong blogger, ng MEDIA kung may katotohanan ba ang balitang ito.






"1. These rumors started from Indian community last month na kumalat sa mga emails.

2. Hindi natin ito pinatulan  dahil we know the procedurers.. hindi ka naman makapagfile ng exit, kung hindi pa tapos ang contract, hindi pa naibigay ang  benefits ESB, unpaid salaries and others. May clearance po na pipirmahan both by the worker and the employer. And this will be submitted to the Ministry of Labor for approval. Then it will be forwarded to the Jawasat for FINAL Exit visa stamping.

Before ka maaprove for FINAL exit ay kailangan mo pang mag- electronic fingerprint..
Kasama din sa checking kung may pending police cases ka, utang sa bangko or credit
cards, traffic violations and others..

Okay granted na maimplement pa ang NITAQAT , ang procedure na yan pa rin sa taas ang
masusunod..Pero ang pagbabasehan ay hindi lang ang date ng end of contract.. kundi pati
na rin ang date ng expiration ng iqama.. Kung ano ang ma-una magexpire ay yon ang
masusunod. Though some companies ay maaring mag-extend ng contract ng workers
hanggang sa based sa expiration ng IQAMA

3. The saudi government clearly answered that these Indian rumors are not true.. here is
the  link

"Rumors of expatriates having their exit-re-entry visas switched to exit-only visas at airports have no basis, said Passport Department officials across the Kingdom.“There is absolutely no truth to it,” said Mohammad Al-Husayn, spokesman for the Passport Department in Makkah province. “If it is an exit/re-entry visa then it cannot be changed at the airports. The final exit is stamped only after a series of steps are taken both by the employee and the employer.”

http://arabnews.com/saudiarabia/article458446.ece?

4. I know the Indian community napakarami nila dito na sabihin nating nakabenefit sa
pagtratrabaho sa saudi arabia.. may mga negosyante, may mga nasa opisina..
Naintindihan natin na takot sila sa nitaqat kung maimplement dahil isa sila ang
pinakamaraming maapektuhan; kaya siguro sila gumagawa  ng ganung kwento.. maybe to
call the attention of their government.. or ano pang reason...

5.  Sa part naman natin, may mga takot din kami  dito and   we are asking our own
government na tulongan kami kung sakaling  mapauwi kami ng bigla.. Pero kami na mga
professionals ay hindi magresort sa paggawa ng tsismis.

...

7. If talagang panindigan nya na totoo ang sinabi nya then dapat  may mga  tao syang 

makapagsalita na ganito nga ang nangyari.. Then ipakita nila ang kanilang exit-reentry visa
(or photocopy) at yong sinabi nilang EXIT only na nastamped sa passport.

8. Para sa mga hindi aware sa buhay saudi, ang exit re-entry visa natin ngayon ay
electronic na at nakaprint sa isang bond paper. Hindi na katulad dati na sticket nakadikit
sa aming mga passport.

So common sense na rin sa mga  pinoy na magphotocopy nito.. Kung totoo na EXIT only
ang natatak sa kanilang visa.. then ipakita nila sa media ngayon ang kanilang exit re-entry
visa, then yong FINAL exit na  nakastamp sa kanilang passport..

9. Last month,  I had an argument with some indian friends, na kung sigurado sila na may
nangyaring ganun then magreklamo yong kakilala nila sa saudi embassy sa India..Sabi
nila ay wala na daw kopya ng exit-reentry visa dahil pinunit daw ng immigration.. eh sagot
ko naman common sense naman siguro na magphoto copy. use the photocopy.  Ngayon
natahimik ang indian community pero itong monterona naman ang nagsalita..

10 . Heto ang procedure sa mga OFWs na umuwi with exit -reentry visa.. pagpasok mo sa
immigration,  basahin ng officer yong exit-reentry visa mo, then tingnan yong mukha mo
sa passport kung pareho ba.. then magstamp ang officer doon sa exit-reentry visa (bond
paper),  then doon sa isang page ng passport.. Since palabas ka ng saudi Arabia, then
EXIT ang ilalagay dyan..ang hugis ng stamp na yan ay rectangular.. then pagbalik mo
naman from vacation ay ENTRY naman ang ilagay dyan at oval shaped naman yong
stamped.

YAN siguro ang sinabi nila na EXIT only.. at kung itong Monterona ay alam lang ang
pinagsasabi.. Dapat aware sya , or dapat nagimbestiga sya. Sabagay nasanay naman
yan sa pagsagap ng mga balita.. at gagawa din ng sarili nyang balita ng panggamit ng
mga OFWs na walang pakialam kung ano ang maging epekto nito.

EXIT nga yan at walang entry na nakastamp dahil palabas ka pa lang.. kaya siguro EXIT
only.. pero hindi FINAL EXIT.. ang final exit  maliban sa mahabang proceso ay mahaba din
yong nakasulat dyan sa passport at may isang extra paper (A4) pa for electronic purpose..

HEROES HOMECOMING TOWARDS CHANGE

The First Quarter Storm

Note: The photo of a boy holding a flag is an official entry of  Analindenhann from Copenhagen Denmark, 

©2011 Pinoy Expats/OFW Blog Awards

The first quarter of 2011 is perhaps the most turbulent days of the Overseas Filipino Workers as they witness the political revolution in the Middle East and North Africa where thousands of OFWs were caught in the middle of domestic conflicts in countries such as Egypt, Bahrain, Oman, Yemen, Saudi Arabia and Libya.

Even with these appalling events, Filipinos remain determined to continue following their dreams through migration in order to survive domestic poverty. The world could be cruel and unforgiving but also highly rewarding... because in every struggle, heroes emerge.

 

Leaving Is Not A Matter of Choice, Coming Back Is

Despite the varied reasons why Filipinos go abroad, nationalism is still evident on the narratives of the 12 million Filipinos scattered all over the world. PEBA has witnessed how OFWs take pride of our Filipino roots, our culture and our race. Filipinos abroad, after they have followed their dreams, have chosen to return, evident on how we are called... "Balikbayan." They return to share their talents, skills and fortunes in an effort to bring change to the families left behind, communities and country. Thus, PEBA 2011 is dedicated to our "balikbayans", the unsung heroes of our time. Their homecoming brings a spark of change to the lives of their loved ones and their homeland. PEBA 2011 honor them with the theme, 

"Ako'y Magbabalik, Hatid Ko'y Pagbabago." (I Will Return, I Will Bring Change.)

The PEBA 2011 Challenge

PEBA 2011 will attempt to remind the P-Noy administration to solicit, listen and heed the advice our OFWs who have been the forefront of finding solutions on the world’s most powerful economies. It's about time that instead of concentrating on labor-export policy, this administration start tapping the professional services of OFWs in various areas of expertise in rebuilding our country's infrastructures and basic services by offering them job positions in government offices to be administration partners in nation-building.

We call on our Filipino expatriates around the world to continue their roles as Global Ambassadors of our country in foreign lands by promoting and patronizing our locally-made products, making the Philippines the first stop destination for holidays and investing in the home country. We ask them to teach their children and their foreign spouses on the positive Filipino values and the Filipino language. Let’s be proud of our race, for nationalism knows no time and boundaries

.

Expats, OFWs and Bloggers, They’re Heroes That Multiplies

To our Global Filipino bloggers, as the curtain rises for PEBA 2011 in celebration of our nation’s historic "Araw ng Kagitingan"; let us look back on the heroes of La Solidaridad - Rizal, Del Pilar, Ponce, Paterno, Jacinto, Lopez-Jaena , etc. who were the Filipinos reformists in Spain who used instead of the sword to campaign for changes in the Spanish-governed Philippine islands through essays, speeches, news articles, and other literary and journalistic forms. Their efforts ultimately led to the Philippine independence from Spain. Today, PEBA invites our bloggers to write and post topics on "Balikbayan" (Returnees), "Homecoming" and the positive "changes" and benefits it brings to their families, relatives and friends, to the community and to our country, the Philippines. 

We call on our bloggers worldwide to share their stories - through essays and anecdotes, literary and journalistic forms, videos and photos on their quest for the real change that they want to be - for their own selves, for their families, communities and country on their plan homecoming or recent “balikbayan” experiences that bring positive change to the lives of their love ones. And to our non-OFW bloggers, we seek your talents to share with us your expectations and memorable experiences gained during the homecoming events of your returning family members, relatives or friends.

Like Rizal, Luna and Ninoy, 12 million OFWs have crossed borders to work, learn culture and technologies abroad in their effort to battle poverty in our courtyard; soon they will return and apply their knowledge and wealth to bring the change they want for their families, relatives, communities and country - for heroes never die, they just multiply.

This season will put a challenge to our Global Filipinos to flex its muscles to show that with the unity of its great numbers, it can be a potent force for political change, that OFWs can stop this culture of corruption, exploitation, and fraud and steer our country to greater heights by participating in a mature political exercise by participating in the Overseas Absentee Voting and joining forums and social organizations abroad that promote Filipino values and socio-economic assistance to OFWs and kababayans back home.

To the private sectors that have economically benefited on the remittances and homecoming spending of the OFW and their families; PEBA calls for your support on the advocacy programs and projects of the Government, LGUs and NGOs that promote values and welfare of the OFWs.

PEBA calls on POEA and OWWA to improve its reintegration program for returning, retiring and displaced OFWs. We ask this administration to restore an estimated 46 percent budget cut to the Department of Foreign Affairs 2012 budget and to increase funds to assist OFWs in Japan and the Middle East countries.

As the quarter storm closes, we prayed and mourned for the loss of our OFW compatriots, Sally, Ramon and Elizabeth who were executed in China. A painful lesson for every Filipinos to be careful and not to allow ourselves to be used as drug couriers.

Hundreds of OFWs are still missing in New Zealand after a devastating earthquake hit the country. In Japan, the horrifying series of earthquakes and tsunami that swept the Japanese shores where hundreds of OFWs are still unaccounted for and the continuing threat of radiation exposure remain an unending nightmare to the survivors.

107 in 7 Days!

There is something wonderful and great about KABLOGS. I know that, in fact I feel that, and believe me, I do believe that it will soar high and will reach more OFW's and Filipino bloggers all over the world. I am saying this not because I am the founder, di ko nga lubos maisip how KABLOGS come to this point, kasi honestly, I don't know, hindi ko man lang naisip na KABLOGS will be this popular, will be this influential, or will be this stable after almost one year of it's existence. But what I am saying is that KABLOGS will be great for the following points that I believe will win the hearts of cute, lovely and handsome Filipino people wherever they are in the world.

1. KABLOGS is the only site, the one and only site that has a comprehensive list of all OFW and Filipino Expats bloggers around the world.
2. KABLOGS is the one and only site that aggregates the post of these bloggers, giving visitors a diverse snippets of each bloggers post from four corners of the globe, kung may corners ang round globe, hehe.
3. KABLOGS is gearing to be an online magazine as well, featuring stories from bloggers, and even the life of fellow bloggers, and OFW's heroism.
4. KABLOGS is developing as a social medium for OFW and OFW Bloggers, with Social Station through Ning, and the newly built KABLOGS Forum
5. KABLOGS is also a helpcenter, with its tie up with the BLAS OPLE POLICY CENTERwhich will be formalized soon, KABLOGS and OPLE CENTER will work hand in hand in serving Filipino workers in distress anywhere in the world.
6. KABLOGS will always be the social arm and gateway to PEBA, implementing social and charity projects.
7. KABLOGS hopefully with its growing number of supporters will try to voice and be vocal in our stand in issues that directly affects our national interest and welfare of the OFW's.

Sa nakaraang pitong araw, since tinanong ako ng aking wife na si Mrs. Thoughtskoto kung bakit walang fan page ang Kablogs, at dahil sa takot, este, sa pagmamahal ko sa kanya at sa concern niya sa KABLOGS ay dali dali kong ginawan ng fan page, umabot na sa 100, no, 107 as of this writing ang fans ng KABLOGS.

At ang pinakauna namin na nakulit, dahil walang FACEBOOK at ayaw magopen ng FB account ay no less than the El Presidente himself, haha. Thanks sayo LordCm, sa pagpaunlak na magopen ng FACEBOOK account. :)

107 in 7 days? Whoa! That's amazing! So many people knows us now. You inspire us. You're joining of KABLOGS be it in blog list, or in Ning, or in forum, or in Facebook is your way of saying you believe in what we can do and where our passion and love of country and blogging will lead us, as well as an inspiration for us to carry on and to make the best in everything we do despite of the lacking of man power, or volunteers on our part.

"Let the new leaders of our land rise from the votes of the OFWs"

This article, a compilation of thoughts from some of the best and brightest PEBA and KABLOGS bloggers was originally posted at the Philippine Online Chronicles, and Blogwatch.ph

For decades, we've been lauded as "Bagong Bayani" as a recognition by the same government who has caused our mass exodus into foreign lands.

Let's breathe the title of modern day heroes and accept its appended challenges and responsibilities. Despite our distance and diversity, we take pride in being a part of the Filipino abroad’s global recognition as shapers of the world.

Now, the time has come to unleash the heroes within us as the majestic sun rises in the East and its rays of hope shines upon our nation this coming May 2010 election.

This is a call for our collective voice in the 2010 election. We encourage all Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs) and their families to actively participate and be part of our country’s historic electoral process.

For several years, we’ve made our presence felt in building our nation. In every single dollar remittance that is being delivered in our family’s doorsteps, we OFWs have helped in sustaining the Philippines’ economic growth.

Our experiences in and out the country have led us to become seasoned professionals who are now politically mature to discern what’s best for our home country. Now is the moment to make a difference. We are part of the 12 million Filipinos dispersed across the world and we can definitely make a difference.

We will solidify our stand to choose the right leaders fo

r our country. We will influence our family and loved ones back home, the recipient of our hardships and struggles abroad, to act too. We will guide them in making their choices this coming May 2010 because we believe that their actions will not only shape our country’s future but the future of the generations to come.

Our nation has suffered from the action (and inaction) of irresponsible and corrupt government officials but we must remain steadfast in our hope and desire of having a better country. Our nation is already battered and divided. This coming election, its fate resides in US.

If there is a time to live as modern day heroes, to make a difference as global Filipinos, to embark on something worth doing, IT IS NOW!

Let us empower ourselves as OFWs. With one voice and one heart, let's vote and get counted! Only responsible voters can bring responsible leaders in office on May 2010. Let the new leaders of our land rise from the votes of OFWs.

(We encourage all OFW bloggers to post this in your blog and FB Profile, Twitter, Plurk and circulate this piece to OFW and families email addresses. Thank you.)

WORLD SMILE DAY

From The Pope
Tama ka Lord, kung lahat ng tao sa buong mundo ay magkakaisa at sabay-sabay na mag-aalay ng isang minuto para sa kanyang pansariling kasiyahan, magkakaruon ng tunay at ganap na kasiyahan sa buong mundo for 60 seconds - sana'y magkaruon nga ng advocacy na 60 Seconds World Happy Day...Source

Bakit hindi natin subukan? Sabay-sabay tayong ngumiti, tumawa o magpakasaya sa kabila ng maraming problemang kinakaharap ng bawat isa. Kalimutan ang kalungkutan kahit isang minuto lamang.

Sa darating na December 08, 2009, 8PM Manila Time, sabay sabay nating tanggalin sa isipan ang lahat ng bumabagabag sa atin, mag isip ng masasayang bagay na pangyayari sa iyong buhay, at ngumiti na parang walang problema...kahit isang minuto lang...

Hinihingi ko ang tulong ng lahat ng mambabasa ng pahinang ito na ibahagi sa iba ang ISANG MINUTONG SMILE, sa pamamagitan ng paggawa ng artikulo sa inyong pahina o pag display sa inyong blog ng imahe na nasa taas, at i-link sa artikulong ito. At kung maipapasa nyo sa iba, mas maganda upang mas marami pa tayong mapasaya...

At kung ang mga blogerong nagse-celebrate ng kanilang kaarawan ay may Picture Greetings mula sa kanilang mga kaibigan, maaari rin po kayong magpadala ng ISANG MINUTONG SMILE Picture sa charliemontemayor@yahoo.com..Yun sanang pinaka da best nyong ngiti :) .. At susubukan ko pong magawan ng video at ipaskel sa aking pahina bago dumating ang 8pm ng December 08, 2009..."

Oo nga naman, bakit di natin subukan. Nakikiisa ang KABLOGS sa magandang adhikain na ito. We have great reason to SMILE not just during that day, but everyday!

Read more here at the Dungeon Lord's page.

It will truly be a surprise!

KABLOGS STATEMENT AGAINST AN ANTI-OFW BLOGGER MIKE AVENUE

On Mike Avenue Pinoy Blog’s ‘Tsokolate’

PEBA and KaBLOGs MANIFESTO

So that the bloggerworld and everyone may know...

We believe in the right to freedom of speech as a human right.

We believe in the freedom to hold opinions without interference by public authority and regardless of frontiers, either orally, in writing or in print, in the form of art, or through any other media of his choice.

We believe in the right to freedom of expression to receive and impart information.

We believe that blogging is an expression of one’s opinions, personal experiences, hobbies, commentaries, diaries and we further believe that every blogger has the right to publish his personal expressions and opinions.

We believe that the exercise of these freedoms is not an absolute right but carries with it duties and responsibilities, that may be subject to restrictions or penalties on specific grounds as prescribed by law and are necessary in a democratic society, in the interests and protection of the reputation or rights of others.

We believe that majority of the Overseas Filipino Workers have chosen to leave the Philippines to seek and search for better livelihood opportunities abroad so they may be able to support themselves and their families back home.

We believe that the OFW’s search for a greener pasture is not at all that easy and yet hundreds of thousands of OFWs have created names for them and have excelled in their chosen fields of endeavor, setting the world standards for nobility and for hard work.

We believe that there is nothing wrong with doing an honest day’s work as a domestic help or as construction worker or doing any other menial and blue collar jobs.

We believe that OFWs whether professionals or not should be given honor and respect.

We believe that the OFW is the Hope of the Nation, Gift to the World!

With these guiding beliefs:

We regard Mr. Mike Avenue’s Pinoy Blog post on "Tsokolate" as one that lacked research and a flagrant ignorance of the truth about Overseas Filipino workers and expatriates.

We regard this lack of truth and ignorance as especially inexcusable from one who feigns intelligence and high learning and coax people into belief and following.

We regard his statements: “minumura ng amo kapalit ng dolyar” and “humahalik sa paa ng mga dayuhan” as blatant mockeries of the sacrifices of the Overseas Filipino Workers and expatriates and are hasty generalizations of the living and working conditions of the Filipino expatriates and OFWs.

We regard his post as tactless and offensive, trying to make a lame attempt to sarcasm that failed to be funny, at the expense of the Overseas Filipino Workers.

We regard his post as a clear display of arrogance, done in a distasteful manner with blind indifference and unjust condemnation of the millions of hardworking OFWs who work long hours to earn an honest buck.

We regard his post to have overstepped the bounds of sensitivity and responsibility of a decent mind and an accountable and sensible blogger.

Therefore, we at PEBA and KaBLOGs and the THOUGHTSKOTO family will not allow this kind of humiliation to pass without us making a stand.

We strongly condemn this irresponsible blog post and Mike Avenue.

We consider Mike Avenue as an Anti-OFW persona.

We demand a retraction and an apology from Mike Avenue of Pinoy Blogs for this irresponsible blogpost!

We are Filipinos and we should stand together and strive for a better Philippines!
