Gordon wants OFWs pulled out from Kazakhstan

Sen. Richard Gordon recommended to the Department of Labor and Employment the pullout of overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) from an oil-drilling site in Kazakhstan following reports of intimidation from some Kazakhs, ABS-CBN News reported Tuesday.In a text message to Labor Secretary Arturo Brion, Gordon suggested that the agency “pull out the many OFWs who no longer feel safe in this very remote outpost.”Gordon, also the chairman of the Philippine National Red Cross, said that he had been in touch with “severely traumatized OFWS who not only fear for their lives but are constantly intimidated n harassed by Kazakhs involved in October 20 fatal event.”He added that Filipinos were being threatened and their personal belongings taken from them by rogue bands of Kazakhs.Gordon’s text message added that “some instances of violence n bullying have been reported. Panic n tempers r at a flashpoint which could lead to severe consequences not unlike the 20 Oct event wc killed many Turks.”The Department of Foreign Affairs said that about 447 Filipinos were transferred to a safer part of the Bechtel-run compound in Tengiz, western Kazakhstan.

A violent clash between Kazakh and Turkish workers erupted when “someone cut into the line” as workers were waiting to be served a meal, an AFP reported said.

The Philippine Star also reported about 40 people being killed and scores injured during the riot.

Anyone of you got relathieves out there?!

And to think na ang sinimulan pala nito eh when “someone cut into the line” as workers were waiting to be served a meal! And this is between Turkish and Kazahks!

HUH! Kakabaliw naman?!

Get this! This happens in the mall sa Manila all the time!!! Ganun lang?! Tigbakan blues agad? Ang babaw naman nang mga Turks at Kazaks na to!!!!

Anong klaseng pagkain yon? Si Madonna? Si Britney? Nakahilatang hubad? Yon ba ang pinipilahan nila? I’m sure hindi nila pag-aawayan ang adobo?

Gahaman at ganid ba sila sa pagkain? Anyone? Anyone?
