A senator on Friday suggested sending more social welfare attaches (
SWAs) abroad to extend special protection to overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) in countries swamped with cases of abuse and violence.
Senator Sonny Angara has proposed the dispatch of more social welfare attaches (
SWA) who could extend 'psychosocial care' to overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) in countries swamped with cases of abuse.
Senator Juan Edgardo "Sonny" Angara called on the government yesterday to beef up the Philippine diplomatic mission and deploy more social welfare attaches (
SWAs) to Kuwait and other so-called overseas Filipino worker (OFW) "hotspots."
This, Recto said, is the 'smallest employee-to-clientele ratio in public service today' as he called for
SWAs to be considered as 'priority hires.'
Angara made the statement as the bill seeking to institutionalize the deployment of
SWAs, which he refers to as malasakit officers, is set to be signed into law by President Duterte.
SWAS crackers eliminate the usage of Potassium nitrate (KNO3) and Sulphur with a consequent reduction in particulate matter (30-35 per cent) SO2 and NOx.

Angara said there is an urgent need to send more
SWAs because there are only four social welfare officers deployed by the government across the globe.
