    OFWs has “ placed” seneres in that position discerning that he can protect any interest they might have.
    putting additional requirement for the renewal of ofw's passport would mean that he’s not giving back any favor at all.
    i agree that some are consciously depriving the needs of their own family for non-remittance but it's not right that you shall apply your proposal across the whole OFW community.
    think smarter next time, and expecting from you a bill that will give benefit instead of slapping another bureaucratic scheme that can cause distress to us

    wala naman difference. yung countries na may working visa/permit, usually
    me tatak sa passport.
    and yung mga registered OFWs me mga resibo ng OWWA karaniwan ini-attach sa
    passport (pero pwede naman tanggalin).

    saka 5 years validity ng PH passport - so taon din bibilangin bago
    magrenew.

    Seneres should come up with a bill making passport 10 yrs than 5 yrs. He can make more sense this way. :cheer:

    Parang di nyo naintindihan yung proposal. Sabi ay i-hold ang renewal ng passport ng ofw na HINDI NAGBIBIGAY NG SUPPORTA SA MGA DEPENDENTS SA PILIPINAS.

    So sa madaling salita ang apektado nito e yung mga nag-abandon ng mga pamilya nila sa pilipinas. Parang kung baga sa america e yung mga tinatawag na "dead beat dads", yung hindi nagbibigay ng support sa kanilang mga anak at asawa (i.e., child support and alimony). Madami kasing mga ofw na naki-apid na sa ibang babae/lalake sa abroad at tinigil na nila yung pagbibigay ng supporta sa kanilang mga legal na pamilya dito sa pilipinas. Yun ang target ng bill na ito, para makahabol ng supportang pinansyal ang mga inabandonang mga pamilya na naiwan sa pilipinas dun sa kanilang mga tatay/nanay na kinalimutan na yung kanilang mga anak.

    Pero may mali din ang bill (ayon sa pagkakasulat sa nabasa kong ni-quote ni BratPAQ). Ang mali ay:
    1. Hindi dapat lahat ng ofw ay ire-require ng proof of remittance. Ito ay mali. Dapat ay magreklamo muna ang asawa o anak na inabandona, hindi dapat lahatin.
    2. Kung legally separated na sa asawa ay mga anak na menor de edad na lang ang pwedeng magreklamo at humingi ng suporta.


    Yung tunkol naman sa passport ng ofw at tourist, iba po ang passport ng ofw. Iba ang series ng letters ng passport number. Kaya po pag nag apply ng passport e tinatanong kung ano ang purpose ng pagkuha ng passport. Pag presenta mo ng passport sa imigration at ofw passport ang hawak mo e hahanapan ka ng work visa at oec galing sa poea.
    sir yebo, papano kung ung asawa dito sa pinas ang nagloko, anong gagawin sa OFW? parang yung kantang "Napakasakit, Kuya Eddie"....

    agree to this or file a bill that passport pages shall be increased as it was before.
    IIRC, currently this is my 3rd passport renewed before its expiry date.
    tip sa passport na wala ng pag tatakan... yung page na para sa limitations ay pwedeng gawin as additional visa passport page. ito ang ginawa ng isang consul sa aking isang passport noon habang hinihintay ko yung bagong passport dahil wala na talagang space/page for the immigration officer to stamp arrival/exit pass.

    Sama akong sampu dito...anyway, bill pa lang naman at siguradong dadaan sa maatikabong debate at diskusyon pa ito. I subscribe to the wisdom on Rep. Seneres and i think this will be a deterrent to philandering husbands/wives abroad---for them to ponder the consequence(s) of their indiscretion. After all, the family plays a vital role in nation-building..my ten cents worth..
