OWWA Deputy Director Mocha Uson reveals new task for OFWs

Helping Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs) is nothing new to Mocha Uson newly appointed deputy executive director of the Overseas Workers Welfare Administration, (OWWA).

She said that since the start of President Rodrigo Duterte’s term, she has been bringing OFW issues to OWWA Administrator Hans Cacdac.

“Dati pa maraming issues ang OFWs, lagi kong sinasabi kay Admin Cacdac,” Uson told reporters.

She also gave members of the media an idea on what will she be doing at OWWA.

“Yung mga programa po ng OWWA, susubukan natin mas maiparating sa mga OFWs,” Uson said.

Uson is also part of the President’s contingent to Russia and set to meet the Filipino community there.

“Marami po kasing Pilipino doon na undocumented so sana magkaroon na ng bilateral talks para mapag-usapan ang sitwasyon nila doon,” Uson added.

She also shrugged off issues of some critics calling out the President for appointing Uson again to another government post after losing in the 2019 midterm elections.

“Opinyon po nila yun hayaan na natin sila,” she said.
