In a statement Friday, Secretary Susan Ople said the Anti-Illegal Recruitment Branch (AIRB) of the Philippine Overseas Employment Administration (POEA) padlocked Kharem's International last July 29 for supposedly offering non-existent jobs in the Middle East. It was learned that the establishment is an unregistered and unlicensed company posing to hire domestic workers, beauticians, and on-call cleaners for the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and other Middle Eastern countries. Ople said the Department had received complaints about Kharem International's bogus job offerings in exchange for placement and other "advance" fees. The operation was conducted with the help of officials of Barangay 668 in Ermita. She also advised those who were victimized by the company to contact the Anti-Illegal Recruitmen
