00:00The people in the backdoor exit of the Philippines have not changed, according to Senator Rafi Tulfo.

00:06Yesterday, he told the Senate about the harassment committed by some OFWs who were victims of human trafficking.

00:13Here is the first news of Mark Salazar.

00:16Senator Rafi Tulfo stood in the plenary to tell how human traffickers outside the country harassed their OFWs.

00:30This is probably the route that Alice Guo used in their escape from the country.

00:36The modus of human traffickers and illegal recruiters in Tulfo's story has not changed.

00:41They locked down their jobs in Europe in exchange for a 400,000 pesos placement fee.

00:48But the way to go to Europe is illegal.

00:52They started their journey on August 6.

00:56They boarded a commercial flight from Manila to Zamboanga.

01:02On August 7, they boarded a flight from Zamboanga to Tawi-Tawi.

01:07On August 8, they continued their journey by boat.

01:12Here, they buried one of the OFWs, one of their bankers.

01:20In fear of being thrown into the sea, he was not able to swim.

01:26On the night of August 8, they arrived in Semporna, Sabah.

01:31From Sabah to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, to Makatawid, Thailand,

01:37it was clear to the victims that they entered a dangerous place.

01:41They called their recruiter to tell them what the reason was.

01:46They even tried to ask for money to fix the problem.

01:53The group called their families because their recruiter warned them

02:01that if they don't give them extra money,

02:05they will have a problem because they left their luggage with drugs.

02:10This case was filed against Tulfo and DMW, which is why they were saved.

02:15But there are still many people in this situation.

02:19This issue was referred to the Committee on Labor and Committee on Justice and Human Rights to investigate.

02:25This is the first news.

02:27Mark Salazar for GMA Integrated News.

02:48.
