For OFW/Immigrants: If you given a chance, would you go back to Philippines for good?

[chuwariwap_aj]

Dili ko sure if naa pa same ug thread ani, try kog search wa koy na kit.an. But here's why i ask ofw working abroad. Would you go back to Philippines for good?

I'm in more than 2 years working here in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The place is nice, it’s almost the same in Philippines. But ofcurz they paid more than Pinas. So in my 2 years, i'm able to invest, save, insurance and even getting my own standard cost house and lot (i'm still paying my monthly amortization btw). During my stay here, I also got a chance to travel different countries. One time, i travelled in Laos, there’s a lot of people there live in simple life. Seeing those smiles that even how simple life is, you can find satisfaction in it. Everything flash back in instance, my family and the person i like to be with. This is the home that I’m wishing for. I’m giving myself another 3 year, as I only planned to work here for 5 years and go back to Philippines for good.

How about u? Would you go back sa yutang natawhan? Or you would stay in abroad?

Cgeko huna huna ani na question.. Ang problema wala pa koy sure na source of income.. Mahurot ra imo tinigom kong mo uli ka.. Wala poy kasiguruhan madawat ka og trabaho.. Kon madawat man ka for sure mag mogot ka sa kagamay mga sweldo, pamplete ra tungod kay naanad nata dinagko sweldo.. Ang pirmi lang nako ghuna huna na maka human lang ako mga bata og skwela or kon naa na gyud ko klaro na source of income.. Mo go na gyud ko..

wala kay source of income, surely hurot jud imong kwarta kay cge gawas lang.

rember ako papa. OFW until nag 62, naay balay ug yuta. but ang pension sa SSS 3K ra. ang ending nagsalig nlang sa mga anak na swerte muhatag. Ako nlang naghatagan kay ako may blessed interms of income.

most of ofw is not financially literate enough unsaon pag handle ug money. na experience na nko during nagdaku na akong papa naa sa abroad. kung ako pasultion, wala ko kaila kaayo sa akong papa. which d ko ganahan mahitabo sa akoa puhon.

kung naa kay sweldo, push urself to save money . but saving money is not enough, you need to roll it and multiply it. daghan mga pwede investsan. Gge ko invest, daghan na pud ko nawala sa akoa. But i learned. I paid my monthly obligation well. Insurance, SSS, Pag-ibig ug Philhealth.

Some of my friends told me "lisud man kay gamay sweldo, wa nay nahibilin"... Its not how much u earn money, but its how u spend.

Perspective ra jud na sa tao how to be financially literate. Even God teach us to save money tru the life of Joseph the dreamer.

Usa na ka dekada ko ga trabaho abroad pero dipa gyud nako ma say na financially stable ko kong mo uli. Naa koy napundar pero di pa ka multiply. Hulat hulat lang ko ani. Pero kong ma terminate ko mo for good na gyud ko. Kusog raba tinaktakay samo comoany.

Preha diay ta sitwasyon sa papa. Mora wapod ko kaila sako papa kay dugay siya sa abroad mo uli lag tig usa ka bulan sud sa isa ka tuig. An ending mag buo og laing pamilya. Diko gusto mapreha sako papa.
