00:00The president expressed profuse and profound gratitude to the Filipinos in the UAE whose work ethic, resourcefulness and professional skills have endeared them to their Arab employers and their government, both of whom have hired a whopping 900,000 Filipino migrant workers and counting.
00:18In conveying the Filipino nation's heartfelt thanks to its hardworking compatriots, the president cited the latest trade deal clinched with the UAE, which augurs well for more well-paying work opportunities, OFW incentives and benefits in the host nation and back at home.
00:36He also cited the government programs for OFWs, which have helped them secure coverage in health care and financial assistance in times of crises.
00:46Then he vowed for even greater support from his government, which will work even harder to assure all migrant Filipino workers a brighter and more secure future.
00:56We envision a future where every Filipino at home or abroad has a chance to succeed because once we deepen our trade and investment partnership with, for example, the UAE,
01:11we are laying the groundwork for employment opportunities in more varied sectors and wider market access for Filipino businesses.
01:22Mga kaasa po kayo na patuloy natin patatatagin ang mga programang naglalayong magsulong ng kaularan para sa lahat upang ating makamtan ang inaasam nating kasaganahan sa ilalim ng isang bagong Pilipinas.
