MANILA, Philippines — As election day nears, Filipinos are reminded to vote for those who can help ensure the safety and welfare of overseas Filipino workers and vote for a leadership that would enable the creation of more jobs back home.  

 

“It is important to choose leaders who have platforms to uplift the lives of our OFWs, decrease unemployment so that workers need not seek jobs overseas, and in so doing provide jobs to our educated and highly skilled workers,” Koalisyon Kontra Daya (KKD) Canada spokesperson Marissa Corpus said in an online message to Philstar.com.

 

More than 65.7 registered Filipino voters will cast their ballots on Monday next week for the country’s national and local elections.
