Deployment Ban on Libya Still In Effect
Wednesday, October 26, 2011
Former strongman Muammar Gaddafi has been buried and Libya's new leaders have declared the oil-rich North African state "liberated".
However, deployment ban on Libya is maintained by the Philippine Overseas Employment Agency (POEA.) The agency is awaiting the recommendation of the Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) regarding the security situation in Libya.
The new leadership of Libya appears united in moving the nation towards democracy. There's a great chance that the transition will be peaceful and smoother. Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs) need only to wait just a little longer for the deployment ban to be lifted.
Meanwhile, recruitment agencies who are found to have deployed Filipino workers to Libya while the ban is still in effect will be administratively and criminally charged.
