00:00While on his way to the ASEAN Summit in Laos,

00:03President Ferdinand R. Marquez Jr. was still in a tight spot

00:07in the situation and safety of our countrymen in Lebanon.

00:11In fact, the President is preparing the government agencies

00:16for the possible implementation of the forced repatriation.

00:20Claizel Pardilla is in the center of the news.

00:25We are now going to repatriate our people

00:27by whatever means, by air or by sea.

00:30This is President Ferdinand R. Marquez Jr.'s directive

00:34to the government agencies

00:36to help our countrymen who are in trouble

00:40through Israel and the military group Hezbollah.

00:43The President helped the high-ranking official of the government

00:47in the middle of a tight schedule in the ASEAN Summit

00:50and related summits in Laos.

00:52President Marquez Jr. wants to ensure safety

00:57and the well-being of Filipinos in the Middle East.

01:00Lebanon is now under Alert Level No. 3,

01:03which means there is a high risk of security

01:07even if it is voluntary repatriation.

01:10I asked to speak to all of the concerned agencies

01:16to find out how we can bring back the Filipinos

01:22who are trapped in Lebanon.

01:25There are more than 400 now who would want to be repatriated.

01:30So, basically, we're just putting the plans together

01:32how we will bring them back home as quickly as possible.

01:35In case the situation worsens and Alert Level No. 4 is raised,

01:39it is mandatory to send our countrymen back to the Middle East.

01:43DND Secretary Gilbert Yodoro promised

01:46that repatriation will be done

01:48when clearance is received from Lebanon.

01:51We have given a directive to our shipowners

01:57not to go to dangerous places.

02:00And so that's what we did.

02:02Just recently, Israel's warplanes hit Beirut 30 times.

02:07No Filipinos were injured in the airstrike,

02:10but Filipinos are being taken care of in the area.

02:13There are 40,000 Filipinos in the Middle East.

02:161,721 have already applied for repatriation.

02:20More than half a thousand Filipinos have been successfully repatriated to the Philippines.

02:24The Filipinos were given P150,000.

02:28They will also receive reintegration assistance and psychosocial intervention.

02:33Kalei Zalpardilla for Pambansang TV in Bagong, Philippines.

02:46said that up to 450 OFWs in Lebanon have been able to return to the Philippines.
