ASEAN strengthens the 2007 declaration on the rights of migrant workers

This is the title of my Press Release which is the last requirement for the completion of Weeks 18-20 of the Regional Fellowship Program on Parliamentary Diplomacy (RFPPD) conducted by the Parliament Institute of Cambodia (PIC). This means that this may be my last blog under this Program.

Recently, the Diplomacy Program under the PIC has been one of my most fulfilling and challenging journey. I learned a lot and gained more friends and mentors. I couldn’t ask for more. This Program is one of God’s wonderful gifts to me. Being able to visit and stay in Cambodia particularly Phnom Penh and Siem Reap made me also appreciate the Cambodians. And interacting with my classmates made me realize that our ASEAN neighbors are great. They are my friends.

So I wish to thank again the PIC for this noble endeavor of enriching regional parliamentary capacity and including the Philippines’ Congress in one of its grantees. I would not have been enriched and empowered if not for the Philippine House of Representatives which allowed me to undertake this scholarship program. I will always be grateful for these two institutions and the commendable men and women behind them.
