Filipino workers abroad can SOS by SMS

Filipinos working abroad and who are poorly treated, can now send an SOS to their government by text messaging, according to SPAN.

"Government agencies and NGOs are now able to respond and/or intervene, in a timely, adequate and efficient manner, particularly where either the OFW’s life, safety or well being is a critical consideration."
