    The first reason why Filipinos want to work abroad is because of better job opportunities. Unlike in the Philippines where there is a large number of jobs, the salary is too low even for professionals.

    I left Philippines to Canada in 1996 for better life. In those year only few Pilipino's migrated in Canada and its a big culture change aside from the weather. Canadian will not hire you without Canadian experience and you will feel some discrimination too and some employers take you for granted.
    It's so sad many of Filipinos left our mother land for job opportunities but onething I can tell you if you find jobs in Philippines, it's better to stay. I regret that I left my mother land bec. I realize happiness is not about having more money, nice car, big house bec. all those time and memories that you're away is gone. You don't see your children grow up. Some married a foreigner to get a better life, but its not the answer and you may end up separated bec. of culture difference. Be glad and happy with our skin color. Our Phil. senate should pass into law against discrimination about age limit and for those women who have children to get hired for job. I hope BBM will succeed to create more job opportunities for Pilipino's.
    If their is a way, stay in Philippines and grow old together with your family. True Happiness is being surrounded by your loved ones and to be closer in relationship to Abba Father in heaven that bless you, guide you, that give you the true meaning of happiness.

With inflation, rents and other expenses have greatly increased. I helped one Filipina translate a PDF work contract from French to English.

    Another enjoyable interviewing video Rubeauti, you’re a natural at these and make people feel at ease with you. You plan interesting questions also, without making people feel awkward. It’s a pity the work situation is so bad there, that girls need to leave their families or children to earn enough to support them. If they are working as DH or nanny, they are lucky if they have a good employer. I’ve heard some good but some sad stories where there were not treated well, or even fed properly and working ridiculous hours. Even worse some were beaten. The Philippines economy was growing before Covid, I hope it will get back to normal soon and start to prosper again.

This lady I know was a single mother and three days after she got her salary it was finished just a few pesos left for jeepney fare and lunch for her daughter..it was heartbreaking to see...i used to help her now and then to buy groceries..but then I left PH but told her to try and get a job overseas...she was reluctant as she was over 40 years and thought that no one would employ her...anyway she got a job as a baby sitter in Saudi and from what she says, she has been treated very well by the family.....even the grandmother loves her and gave her a new cell phone.....sheÂŽs extremely lucky as I have heard that many of the girls get abused by their employers...I think the salary is 20k monthly and she has a great amount of freedom to make youtube videos when she is out in the mall with the kids...... interesting interview but that is by no means strange that Filipinas seek a better life abroad or to meet a foreigner....It happens in many other cultures for sure.

    Hi Rubeauti. Great interviews. I don't think these girls have any idea how difficult it is to go to western countries. IF they can get permission to even leave the phillipines, there are all the requirements to get a western visa. Very few ever get a US Visa and Canada is getting harder and harder as well. Both countries are very selective. Another problem why they think westerners are rich is because they are looking at the income from the foreign perspective but they are still thinking about their expenses from a Philippines perspective. For example, the Korea mention of 80K seems like a lot of money when you think of your expenses in the Philippines. But you have to consider what your expenses will be in Korea instead. That will not leave much, if any left over. It's a low salary in Korea, but you still have to pay the same expenses as everyone else in Korea. Just my two pesos worth. Keep up the good work.

    I've heard some sad stories from Filipinos who worked abroad in the middle East, Hong Kong and Singapore as domestic helpers. Some of them treated like slaves and wouldn't get paid their full salaries and got their passports taken by their employers who tried to keep them from leaving. Never give up your passport as that is government property that is to be kept in your possession at all times and it's illegal for any employer or anyone else to take it from you. Canada is the best country to immigrate to in my opinion as they pay better and have better laws to protect workers. I lived a while in Toronto Canada and seen a lot of Filipinos living there and having a good life. Some of the Filipinos in Canada would be given a "show money" loan to get there and would give back once they were established there. I can understand why Filipinos want to work abroad for better money and better life as most jobs in the Philippines doesn't pay a good wage to survive on.

      @@Rubeauti Yes I really felt sorry for those Filipinos who were married with children and had to work abroad to support their families. It would put a strain on their marriage being apart and they would miss their children very much when they worked abroad. Some of them if they got lucky could bring their family after a while if they became permanent residents and citizens. Others would live many years apart from their families and their marriages would break up and their children grow up without a mom or a dad working abroad. I've heard lots of sad stories from my Filipino friends but I've also heard some very good stories from Filipinos who became very successful too working abroad. Many nurses, doctors, teachers and other professionals have become very successful working abroad.

    Yeah Canada! We have more Jolibee's opening all the time and Filipinos can have a taste of home-far from home. Seriously, there are opportunities and you will earn more than back home but things are also a lot more expensive. Minimum wage in these parts of the country is equivalent to about P660 per hour. Sounds like a lot but with the average 1 bedroom condo renting for about P90,000/month...do the math. Many people here struggle to get by every month and I have no idea how people working minimum wage make it work. There is poverty and homelessness and other terrible things but there are supports and programs and organizations always willing to help those that need it.
    I welcome all Filipinos and their smiling faces, positive attitudes and strong work ethic.🙂

    In march we now go back to Pinas to live permanently in Mindanao on a surf Island as I am going to retire early, I hate working as much as I do and she is fed up with living abroad.
    She has very good points for going home, so much so she has convinced me !!!!!
    Think carefully before jumping out of the pot into the fire.
    The western societies are not as easy as you think.
    It will be a lot more safe, healthy & a better family environment to bring up our baby Tissay in Pinas than in ANY WESTERN SOCIETY !!!!

    One can understand the dreams and desires of the girls. It just amazes me that these girls don't even get the idea to delve more into the countries of their dreams and what opportunities are really open to them. Almost every country has an embassy in the Philippines, which you can also visit online and what the requirements are. On You tube you can get visual information about the land of your dreams. There are enough videos. The girls should not underestimate the climatic conditions. Because the country Canada often fell as a dream country. May the summer be pleasant there. but the winters are more than harsh. One lady with 3 children will hardly be able to move abroad with 3 children. Every migration authority will be cumbersome. It is, she finds an employer who fully vouches for her and the children. And a guarantee can have far-reaching consequences. The guarantor is held liable for everything, e.g. if a child falls ill etc.

    Not a mystery. I'm American and I joined the Army to get money for college. And then I went to remote Alaska (Shemya island) because the pay was 2x more than I could earn at home. Some people do whatever it takes to improve their lives. Some people watch TV and play online. True for all people all over the world. The interesting thing to me is the percentage of populations who do what it takes seems to remain basically the same all over the world.

    I must admit that this is a kind of a little bit on the comical side because most of those girls mentioned to Canada and I do believe I think once they get to Canada that as soon as they experience the first day of winter there will be willing to pack their bags and head back to the Philippines real quick. I am also assuming that the countries that they are wishing to go to is probably the countries were there online relationship is from. If you want weather that is comparable to the Philippines and then definitely the southern part of Florida and Hawaii will fit that description. Only difference being no mountains in Florida. If you want to experience all four seasons then probably the middle eastern side of the United States in states such as Maryland, Virginia, northern part of North Carolina, Kentucky, northern part of Tennessee, southern part of Ohio, southern part of Indiana, Southern part of Illinois, Missouri is a good prime area in the United States to be able to comfortably experience all four seasons. Cold enough to experience snow. Hot enough in the summer to experience high heat. Mild springtime with a lot of blooms, and good enough fall time colors when the leaves change for the scenery

Which obviously is a lot, plus they get the tips in the room too. I hate to say it, I studied advertising too like the one girl, and I don't think those jobs would even pay as much. Unfortunately here in the US, a lot of people want the cool jobs too, and so they pay less, I found out when I tried to get into advertising.

I hope she studies again and pass her CPA so she can make a lot more money.

      everyone with any backbone makes what they should over time. I worked for a company and told them I would work 1/2 price for 1 year so that I can prove my worth. I saved them 20 times my salary in that year. I asked for a performance review, they said they were too busy. So I asked if I was going to get a raise. They said they could not afford it. I said, OK, I am gone. They quadrupled my salary and I continued making them far more money than they paid me.
      A person is only as valuable as what they bring to the table. If 1000 people can bring the same thing to the table, that person's value to the company is nominal. But if one brings more than any other, his/her value is a portion of what he/she brings.
      Economics is a harsh reality. You get paid what you are worth if you have a backbone. I do understand there are idiots in the Philippines who just don't get it and will never recognize a good employee or situation. Time to move on in that case. I was in Boracay and there was a young man selling banana shakes. I love bananas but not the shakes. It was a cheap price so I said to him that I would buy a banana for the same price as the shake. He said, NO! that he can only sell banana shakes, not bananas. He is a nominal employee. He brings so little to the table. Sadly many Filipinos bring little to the table because they have brought little effort to learning and understanding.
      The Philippines should be one of the richest countries on earth. They have incredible natural resources, an english speaking population and good weather. Yet they vote for leftists because they are leftists. This is a self defeating mindset. It has destroyed such great wealth in the Philippines and indeed the world.

I own an existing US technology company and would NEVER recommend doing business in Philippines and I had a PH CPA and PH lawyer to work it, but it is INSANE. It is why the internet is slow in PH and they are 50 years behind the world as most companies will not invest there due to the government regulations and corruption.

TB is far more dangerous to the average Filipino, yet they imprisoned them in their homes where TB spreads fastest. The country is run by leftist idiots.

    Tbh, I admire the fact that these people are willing to grab opportunity to go for something that improve their life. This separates these group from 90% of the population. In society, we cannot afford to stay in our comfort zone, especially if you want to succeed. This applies to 1st world countries as well, opportunities are everywhere, depending if one is willing to grab it.
    Having said that, I think the real smart ones in PH migrate early before 20s, especially those who excel in academics. They manage to get scholarship to study for free overseas, and get few years bonds after graduation to secure good jobs. These scholarships could be granted up to $100k which we could take up years to repay the study loan. Those jobs are quality white collar jobs that even local graduate find it hard to secure.
    I don't really see anything sad about this. Yes, you could miss home. However, the reward outweighs the risk factor so much, its worth the effort.
    Overall, it depends on your capabilities. Those who are truly capable will excel anywhere they go, even if they stay in PH. Those who have no drive and skills, might end up worse if they migrate. As for salary, don't take it at face value. You have to look at the cost of living as well.

I have a friend who got a scholarship and graduate with a 1st class honor, starting pay is $3.5k with 3 years bond. Her career progression also seems pretty solid, should easily hit 5k in few years time. I also seen Filipina coming to work as maids, earn perhaps 500+/-, and return home after few years. It depends on every individual, everyone is different.

    Nice content
most people are happy with their selves and want more economical opportunities. However, even if you gain economically, you might find that this is not your biggest gain from moving to a country like the US. There may be other, more important reasons for moving that will be far more important to your future self.
    I asked my wife what the biggest thing she gained from moving to the US. She said that America made her pragmatic. That is to think for oneself and critically about what really matters and works, rather than anyone else’s theories or formulas. That is, it taught her to think in such a different way that it opened so many doors and improved her whole life.
    So, you might think you need to move for a better life, but that better life might come to you from what you learn rather than all of the resources of the country that you are moving to. If you pick winners to hang out with, of course, the things that made them winners will become part of you as well. Of course, you can find winners or losers anywhere. You can find this in the Philippines as well, I’m sure (without moving).

    Germany right now is planning to make immigration much easier soon. We urgently need qualified people here, especially in the health and care sector, but also in many crafts like builders, roofers, carpenters, electricians, etc. However, if someone wants to take this opportunity, make sure that you plan ahead long term and learn German for at least a year before you look for a job in Germany. Without any German language skills it is near impossible to find a job here, unless you are a digital nomad or highly skilled in IT related jobs. Best address in the Philippines to learn German is the Goethe Institute in Makati City, which is a German government funded institution. You can read about that institute on Wikipedia.
    The new immigration plan is, that an immigrant needs to fulfill three of the following four criteria:
    finished vocational or academic education,
    minimum of three years job experience,
    German language skills,
    under 35 years old.
    There will be a yearly contingent for immigrants, though. If your language skills are good enough, you even can apply for vocational training here. The details are not finished yet, but to me it looks like it soon gets much easier for Philippines to migrate to Germany then it is now. There are already more than 20,000 Filipinos here (and it is supposed that double that number are living as illegal aliens here), and they generally have a good reputation here as hard-working, friendly and peaceful neighbors or co-workers.
