00:00Another illegal recruitment agency was found and closed by the Department of Migrant Workers or DMW.

00:06Its mode of operation is to operate a language center.

00:10But the truth is, it is also illegal for Filipino workers to leave for Germany.

00:15Benji Durango is in the center of the news.

00:20Together with the PNP and the Business Permit and Licensing Office of Silang, Cavite,

00:23the Department of Migrant Workers appointed a fly-by-night recruitment agency.

00:28When the bell rang, the authorities were ready.

00:31The documents were signed.

00:33The fly-by-night recruitment agency was placed in a closed place.

00:36The group was ordered to close the Volant Academy for Language Excellence, Inc.

00:41which is said to be illegal for Filipino workers to leave for Germany.

00:45We were included in the raid conducted by the DMW.

00:47Upon entering, a resort was opened to us at Intel of the DMW.

00:52Seventy people are currently under training here.

00:55We will implement the closure.

00:58Since May 17, the DMW is operating the place to confirm what they are doing illegally.

01:03Based on the information they found,

01:05they are offering a study and earn scheme in Germany to the applicants they are recruiting.

01:10On their website, this is what the owners will read.

01:13Learn while you earn.

01:15But when the recruitment center looked for documents,

01:17they only found a Mayor's Permit with tutorial services.

01:22It's actually a front for a recruitment scheme going to Germany.

01:26So, in the investigation of the Department of Migrant Workers,

01:30we found out that they are sending workers apprentices to Germany without a necessary permit.

01:39So, their permits are insufficient.

01:40That's why we decided to close.

01:43It will operate until October 2021.

01:46They are offering different jobs.

01:48There are nurses, caregivers, auto mechanics, bakers, butchers,

01:52restaurant specialists, and security specialists.

01:54They are offering a salary of P60,000.

01:57It's time to receive it.

01:59But first, they need to go through different training that they will do here.

02:03And the price is fair.

02:05It's not less than P500,000 that an applicant needs to pay for this.

02:10The 18 dormitories of their center are fully booked.

02:13Aside from the son of the owner, no one else is facing us.

02:16Is there anything you want to say, sir?

02:20Are you the brother of the owner, sir?

02:21They refused to give a statement.

02:23But when they talked to him through the media,

02:26they reduced their training to the applicants.

02:29And they have nothing to do with this job.

02:31Why did you enroll half a million to learn German?

02:36Or are you expecting to get a job afterwards?

02:40The system is that the applicant will go to Germany as an apprentice.

02:44They will still be trained there

02:46in order to find a better job in another agency there.

02:49The problem is, there is no assurance that in the end,

02:52the applicant will be rewarded.

02:54The apprenticeship program, according to the DMW, is free in Germany.

02:58It's supposed to be free in Germany.

03:00But here, they are still being asked to go there.

03:03They locked their office doors.

03:05They were also given a closure order.

03:07The BPLO of Silang also issued a cease and desist order

03:11after they were fired from their first application.

03:14We also have the power to revocate when there's a misrepresentation.

03:18The government is now in charge of the 70 applicants of the training center.

03:28I tried to talk to them.

03:29But they refused to face the camera.

03:31I told them that they have no idea what the training center is doing.

03:34The DMW will help them to get the money they were paid.

03:38We will help them to file a complaint.

03:41Either where they live, because they are not all Silang residents.

03:44About 200 OFWs were sent illegally to Germany,

03:48which is considered undocumented.

03:50Large-scale cases and syndicated illegal recruitment

03:54are the cases faced by the owners of the closed illegal recruitment center.

03:59From Silang, Cavite, Benji Durango for Pambansang TV in Bagong, Philippines.
