Hi! I would like to request an information regarding; 1. Number of OFW's who came from Laguna 2. The breakdown of this numbers per country where they are working right now. 3.

January 13, 2022 Dear Mr. Jose Benigno Eusebio, Greetings! Thank you for your request dated Jan 12, 2022 03:24:27 PM under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch for data on Overseas Filipino Workers who are from Laguna and OFW Remittances going to Laguna. You filed your request to e-FOI twice on 12 January 2022 and given tracking code of OWWA-268691001341 and 538522128848. You requested for data/information of ofws in Laguna and the remittances. It is expected from researcher that you have a full grasp (environmental/social/economic/market scanning) of the mandates of government agencies involved with OFWs which you can view in their respective websites available in the internet. Familiarity of the mandated functions of government agencies is an indicator of the data/information that the agency release to the public. As starter, OWWA have data of all its member OFWs,however, not all OFWs are members of OWWA. If you are interested on numbers of legitimate OFWs whose employment contract were approved by government the best sources are the POEA and the Phil Statistics Authority. For data of Filipinos overseas, the DFA has a more comprehensive data. With respect to remittances data, it is the Banko Central ng Pilipinas who is mandated to monitor the entry of remittance funds. Be a good researcher and follow the procedures/methodologies in sourcing you primary and secondary data.
