00:05Proof of this is the expected resumption of daily flights to the Philippines starting tomorrow.

00:41or return of Filipinos to the country or their temporary relocation to other destinations in Asia.
00:47We are still mounting a big movement towards Saudi.
00:51Kasi lahat po ng mga exit routes ginagamit natin, siguro on the 22nd meron daw repatriation flights from Saudi.
01:05But ang kagandaan po rito, Yusek, Qatar already announced, starting tomorrow po, there will be daily flights to the Philippines.
01:14Although flights remain limited, the Philippine Embassy in Qatar and the Migrant Workers' Office are confident

01:32at sa mga iba pong ahensyon ng gobyerno para po may tatanggap sa kanila upon arrival po diyan.
01:37Then nakaprepare na po lahat po, inclusive po ng financial assistance and reintegration assistance po.
01:43In fact, 37 Filipinos headed to the airport today with the help of the government,
01:49including OFW Gilmarti Castigliano.
01:52Maraming maraming salamat po sa ating embassy dito sa Qatar, sa BMW at sa OWA,
02:00na sobrang accommodating po sila, sobrang asikaso po sa amin.
02:05Salamat din po sa ating ambasador na talagang nakasubaybay sa mga nangyayari dito sa Doha, Qatar.

02:29of Filipinos.
02:30Bagaya po ng aming in-advise sa kanila, it is best pa rin to keep calm.
02:38Makinig lang po sila sa official ng pahayag ng ating host government,
02:42which is really striving very much para maging safe and secure itong Qatar.
