By Don Robert on Sat, 21/11/2009 - 7:32am

Nasisiraan na nga ng ulo yata ang mga Pilipino!

Nakapagtala kahapon ang Commission on Elections (Comelec) sa unang bugso nang paghahain ng certificate of candidacy (COC) ng 14 presidentiables, tatlo sa pagka-senador habang bokya naman sa pagka-bise presidente.

Isinara ng Project Management Office (PMO) ng Comelec, ang unang araw nang paghaharap ng COC ganap na alas-singko ng hapon.

Buena-mano sa filing ng COC sa pagka-pangulo kahapon ang isang ‘teacher-preacher’ na tubong Jagna, Bohol. Isang nilalang na gustong makilalang “Emperor of the World” at hihingi umano ng basbas kay Pope Benedict XVI upang pamunuan ang Pilipinas.

Lying 800 kilometers southeast of Manila, the tear-shaped Siargao Island is a perfect haven for the sun, sea, and surf buffs. It lies on the eastern portion of Surigao del Norte and on the southeastern tip of Mindanao. The island is a mass of tropical land with scores of reefs, points and white beaches.

MANILA, Philippines - Qatar has introduced a law that protects overseas Filipino workers (OFW) and other expatriate workers, the Department of Labor and Employment said Wednesday.

In a recent meeting with the Philippine government in Bohol, the Qatari delegation explained their new “Sponsorship Law."

Under it, they said, Qatar’s Ministry of Labor or Ministry of Interior can allow workers who were maltreated and abused to transfer to other employers.

The delegation added that if a Filipino worker files a case with the labor court and the regular court, his or her employer cannot send the worker back the Philippines until pending claims have been settled.
