MANILA - The deployment of overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) to Saudi Arabia remains suspended, the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) said on Thursday. The agency issued the clarification contrary to a bogus advisory purportedly titled "Advisory No. 69 series of 2022" dated April 4, 2022, claiming that Manila's deployment ban to the kingdom has already been lifted. "It is fake! There is no iota of truth to the content of that advisory. The suspension of deployment (to Saudi Arabia) remains," DOLE Information and Publication Service director Rolly Francia said in a statement. Francia said the fraudulent document only aims to sow confusion among the public and the workers who are seeking deployment to the kingdom. He added that Philippine Overseas Employment Administration (POEA) chief Bernard Olalia has confirmed that he has neither signed nor issued such advisory which is meant "apparently to mislead or confuse the public on DOLE policies." &quo
