Duterte on Kuwait abuse: OFWs can all go home

/

Philippines President Rodrigo Duerte, following the new reports of rape against the Filipino workers in the State of Kuweit, invited to pull out all overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) in Kuwait if one more incident of abuse against any of them should happen again. “The Kuweit must treat our fellow citizens as human beings with dignity” – he said. And he added that “this  is not a declaration of hostility, because Kuweit has always been an ally and is a state that can help our development, but it is necessary to take steps to prevent that such incidents happen again”. Duterte complained about how the human rights groups attacked him for his drug campaign, but he would not raise any alarm about the abuses against the OFW.
