Philippines President Rodrigo Duterte has urged all Overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) to leave Kuwait amid a worsening of relations between the two countries over issues related domestic Workers’ rights.
In a speech that was aired live on social media on Saturday, Duterte said appealed to Filipinos’ “sense of patriotism and come home”.
“I can no longer [accept] what's happening. I will tell the Kuwaiti Government that apparently they bear grudges on us, I would plead for total ban of deployment. I no longer want to send Filipinos to Kuwait because apparently they do not like Filipinos,” Duterte said. Source
