Highlights
LGUs can update families of OFWs in their communities about the incentives OFWs can get after getting the COVID-19 vaccine.
Overview
Aside from the privilege of choosing the brand of anti-COVID vaccine, Filipino workers in Hong Kong also have the chance of getting cash and other incentives once they get inoculated.
The HK government is set to lift its travel ban on the Philippines on August 9, that would allow more than 3,000 stranded OFWs to fly to Hong Kong.
The Hong Kong government is giving cash incentives to migrant workers, and house and car for residents who get vaccinated.
