By Santosh Digal, CNA News<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

MANILA, Philippines \u2014 Three Filipino bishops have urged the Catholic dioceses in the Philippines to support overseas Filipino workers (OFWs), migrants, and their families back home amid the economic crisis following the outbreak of the war with Iran on Feb. 28.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bishop Socrates Mesiona, chairman of the Catholic Bishops\u2019 Conference of the Philippines Episcopal Commission on Migrants and Itinerant Peoples<\/a>, said the Church monitors families of overseas workers in parishes nationwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This effort enables parishes to provide migrant families with pastoral care and material help, along with government agencies, he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, parishes and Church institutions are praying the \u201cOratio Imperata\u201d<\/em> (Latin for \u201cObligatory Prayer\u201d) for peace<\/a> in the Middle East in all their Masses and prayer gatherings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a message, Bishop Broderick Soncuaco Pabillo, the apostolic vicar of Taytay in Palawan, said migrants and others must trust more in God as the world faces oil crises amid the war in the Middle East.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He urged overseas Filipino workers not to lose hope in God and support the needs of families in the Philippines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt is worrisome that OFWs in the Middle East<\/a> and their safety and jobs are at risk. The remittances they send to their families will be greatly affected,\u201d he said. \u201cThe price of oil and essential commodities is increasing. Let us not lose hope, because we will face this scenario with prayer and faith.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Clergy urge fervent prayer and maintaining hope<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Another bishop, Ruperto Cruz Santos of Antipolo, urged overseas Filipino workers to care for their safety with precautions, avoiding risky areas and staying informed about local situations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cLet us remain vigilant in prayer and steadfast in hope. May our voices rise to heaven, pleading for an end to violence<\/a> and the coming of lasting peace,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He advised overseas Filipino workers in the Middle East to stay indoors and in workplaces, avoid unnecessary travel and follow instructions from embassy officials and government officials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Given the current war situation, numerous overseas Filipino workers<\/a> face uncertainty, displacement and separation from their families.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

About 2.4 million Filipinos reside in the Middle East, mainly in the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Kuwait. They work in construction, health care and domestic services and are at high risk following the conflicts, which may lead to job loss, reduced income and increased vulnerability to exploitation<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nearly 1 million Filipinos live in the United Arab Emirates, while Saudi Arabia has over 813,000; in Qatar, 250,000; and in Kuwait, over 106,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Middle East remains a critical source of remittances for the Philippines<\/a>, with a large concentration of workers in the Gulf region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSince the oil boom in the 1970s, Filipinos have been working there doing various skilled and semi-skilled jobs,\u201d Jeremaiah M. Opiniano, executive director of the Institute for Migration and Development Issues, told EWTN News.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cLike during the pandemic and other episodes of conflict (e.g., Israel and Palestine), naturally affected Filipinos seek shelter. They try to tell their loved ones back home not to worry, but both parties are worried,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Plight of overseas Filipino workers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Philippines heavily depends on the Middle East for oil. The government has declared a state of national energy emergency following a rise in domestic fuel prices, which has impacted industries, transportation, logistics, trade, and agriculture. Moreover, workers and consumers face challenges in the crisis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Christina Reys, 52, a mother of four adults from the Bicol region, is distressed because her son Rolando, a seafarer, is stuck in the Persian Gulf along with his crew, as their ship carrying oil cannot sail due to the closure of the Strait of Hormuz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe ship cannot pass. We are worried for Rolando and his crew. We are seeking divine guidance and protection amid the war<\/a>,\u201d she told EWTN News.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since the onset of the war, the crew has remained on the ship, clinging to the hope of returning home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Reys, the local parish is assisting her and her family with material and spiritual guidance, providing food, shelter, and emotional support to help them cope with the challenges they face during this difficult time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Repatriation from high-risk areas<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The government has begun repatriating Filipinos in high-risk areas like Iraq and Syria<\/a>. As of March 30, as many as 3,347 overseas Filipino workers from the Middle East returned to the Philippines via chartered flights, according to the Department of Migrant Workers, who said the repatriation efforts will continue for an unforeseen time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once an overseas Filipino worker has returned home, the government provides financial aid, medical assistance and travel fares to the individual\u2019s home province.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If this crisis in the Middle East escalates and jobs are affected, there may be some job displacements and possibly disruptions in sending remittances, said Opiniano, who is also a professor at the Dominican-run University of Santo Tomas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stakeholders wishing to assist overseas Filipino workers in the Middle East can do so by maintaining regular communication, helping their families save for emergencies, participating in repatriation efforts if desired, and continuing to pray<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All the more, families back home may want to maximize their memberships with the Social Security System, PhilHealth, and Pag-IBIG Fund should the family need resources, besides temporary aid from charity organizations and others, Opiniano explained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
