(Gulf Daily News) - A RECORD number of workers are being sheltered at the Philippine Embassy, in Zinj. Eighty-three Filipinos, the majority housemaids, are currently housed in the shelter.
"More workers are coming in than going out," said officials.
"An average of about three workers are sent back to the Philippines by the embassy per day, if we are lucky, but we also receive an average of three workers coming to our shelter every day seeking assistance," said embassy case officer Geoffrey Puy.
"This is the most number of workers we have had at the shelter and this is probably due to the busy summer season of the airlines.
"We are starting to experience difficulty in booking flights to the Philippines for these workers, because the majority of flights out of Bahrain to our country are already full." ...full story here
