The Department of Migrant Workers Regional Office VII (DMW RO-VII) continues to honor the bold journey of Ms. Gloria Taraji Aminulla at the 2026 LIKHAng Kababaihan National Awarding Ceremony.

In the evening of 26 March 2026, the national awarding ceremony of the LIKHAng Kababaihan Business Plan Competition marked the culmination of a journey filled with aspirations, courage, and learning.

While Ms. Aminulla, DMW RO-VII’s regional representative, did not place in the Top 3, her fearless pursuit of building her own business stands as a testament to the true spirit of a LIKHA woman—resilient and empowered.

As a regional winner, she carries with her not only the ₱100,000 prize, but also the knowledge, experience, and determination to bring her business venture, MUYYAH Hydration Hub, to life.

To all women who continue to rise, take risks, and become who they aspire to be—we are proud of you and your becoming.

Cebu City, Philippines — Yesterday, 21 March 2026, the Department of Migrant Workers Regional Office VII (DMW RO-VII) assisted an undocumented Overseas Filipino Worker (OFW) who is a victim of human trafficking.

“Anton” (not his real name) went to Manila in 2015 with hopes of eventually working abroad. While taking on various jobs, he met a coworker who later introduced him to an individual claiming to have experienced working in Malaysia. In early 2025, he was recruited with promises of stable and high-paying job in a fabrication industry, requiring only minimal expenses to process his deployment.

Together with the recruiter and two other recruits, Anton went to Malaysia through backdoor exit. Upon arriving there in May 2025, he worked as a logger but received only around 100–200 Malaysian Ringgit for several months of labor—far from what had been promised.

Reflecting on his experience, the OFW shared, “Lisod kaayo ma'am uy, dili lalim. Ang ako gyud nga kinahanglan karon ang makakuha ug trabaho ug magsugod ug balik,” (“It’s really difficult, ma'am. It’s really not easy. Right now, I really need to find work and start all over again.”) expressing the hardship he endured and his determination to rebuild his life.

Despite the difficult circumstances, Anton was able to seek assistance from the Philippine Embassy in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, where he stayed in a government-provided accommodation from 22 February 2026 until his safe return to the Philippines yesterday.

Upon arrival, DMW RO-VII, in coordination with partner agencies including OWWA RWO-VII, IACAT-MCIATFAT, DFA, and the Bureau of Immigration (BI), extended assistance to the OFW. He is also eligible to receive ₱50,000.00 financial assistance under the AKSYON Fund, intended for victims of illegal recruitment and trafficking in persons.

DMW RO-VII likewise provided transportation assistance to support his safe return to his residence.

This case serves as a reminder of the risks of illegal recruitment and human trafficking as well as the importance of seeking proper and legal channels for overseas employment. DMW remains committed to protecting the welfare of OFWs and extending assistance to those in need.
