00:00Again, we are in close coordination with our embassy, Ambassador Rao in Tel Aviv, Ambassador
00:22Flues here in Manila, in the Israeli side, with respect to the earliest possible time that they can be flown home.
00:32Doon naman po sa trabaho ng mga OFWs na papunta sana ng Israel, pero hindi na po sila natuloy dahil sarado po ang airports.
00:41Makikipag-gugnayan na rin po ba tayo sa kanilang mga employers regarding this situation?
00:45Yes, yes, that's right. Itong labing lima na umuwi, we are in close coordination with our embassy
00:51and our migrant workers office, na makausap naman din yung kanilang employers.
00:56And as I said, meron tayong pantawin na financial assistance dahil temporary silang mawawala ng trabaho.
01:03Lastly, sir, kung alimbawa po magkaroon nga po ulit ng medyo malalang pagunuhan,
01:08saan po pwedeng lumikas ang mga OFWs po na apektado doon po sa Israel, sir?
01:13Yes, merong crisis team ngayon si Ambassador Aileen Rao sa Tel Aviv.
01:20And there have been identified possible points where they could meet para ma-sundo sila sa respective points na ito
01:28that could be transported to shelters.
01:30We are also in the process of identifying particular shelters outside of our own shelter in Tel Aviv,
01:37such as the one that we set up in Rehobot.
01:40So, we will set up temporary shelters all around where OFWs could meet up and stay temporarily,
01:49again, in coordination with our Embassy Ambassador Rao.
01:54Ambassador Aileen and Jola Rao.
01:57Thank you, Paul.
01:58Thank you, Paul.
02:28Thank you, Paul.
