Beneath the Surface: The Untold Stories of Filipino Overseas Workers"
56 parti Completa Per adultiFOREWORD
The Filipino overseas worker is often hailed as a modern-day hero, a title earned through immense sacrifice, resilience, and hard work. Every day, millions of Filipinos wake up in foreign lands, navigating cultures, languages, and working conditions far from home. They endure homesickness, labor exploitation, and financial burdens, all in the hope of securing a better future for their families.
This book is a deep dive into the real struggles of overseas Filipino workers (OFWs). It sheds light on their journey-from the moment they decide to leave, to the hardships they endure abroad, and the challenges of returning home. Through real-life case studies, I aim to paint a truthful picture of the OFW experience, highlighting both the triumphs and tragedies.
This is for every OFW who has ever felt unseen, every family waiting for a loved one to return, and every Filipino dreaming of a life where migration is a choice, not a necessity.
