Department of Labor and Employment(DOLE)

Hi, I would like to obtain copies of official communications, logs, and any information on what action POLO HK has taken in relation to a number of victims from sub-agency In Heart Employment Agency and Hong Kong principal agency Grateful Employment Agency. It has been reported that POLO HK is now calling, messaging, and harassing a number of individuals who legally exposed a scheme in which a bribe was being brokered for the purpose of witness tampering. I would like to know why POLO HK seams to be harassing the victims rather than suspending the agency and officials involved in the scheme.
