What OFWs need to do

By Karen Galarpe on November 13, 2009 5:44 PM

WHILE ON a recent trip to Japan, I heard a story about an OFW driver who nearly wasted away his earnings.
He worked in Japan for close to 30 years, and at one point was earning an equivalent of P400,000 a month with overtime pay.
He had a wife and child back home in the Philippines and was able to send his child to school.
However, he was always out drinking at bars in expensive Tokyo while having several relationships with other women.
