¡°Learning Process should be a¡®Two-Way¡¯ Exchange Between Korea and Filipino Culture¡±

Philippine Ambassador Luis T. Cruz while being interviewed by the President of ICFW and i-msn, Mr. Kwang Yul Shin

The Ambassador strongly said that he is really enjoying his stay here and had been to many places in the country and the last visit was in Yeoncheon.

My first visit in Korea was on a Spring season. I found it very beautiful and so it left me a very good impression. When they offered this position, I accepted because I already had an idea and so I wasn¡¯t disappointed. ¡° - he said

The Ambassador also adds ¡°The Forgotten War film¡± by Carlo Cruz, his son tackles about the almost forgotten bravery of Filipino soldiers during the Korean war in the 1950¡¯s, where it¡¯s state the last battle in the Korean war. And the last story pertained to a Korean woman who fell in love and got married to a Filipino soldier.

¡°There are about 7,500 Filipino troops who came to Korea over a period of 5 years until 1955 where 116 of them died.¡±

When asked about Filipino workers and illegal migrants, he said that Filipinos should be under the EPS because it is a very good protection for the rights of foreign workers equal to Korean workers like salary, insurance and other benefit matters. But we are trying to solve this problem through the Re-integration Program and Happy Return Program.¡±

Through these, workers who are about to return to the Philippines will be having financial education seminars and skills to learn various opportunities that they can do when they go back home not as workers but as entrepreneurs.

Nowadays, there are about 46,000 Filipinos in Korea. Half of the population is under the Employment Permit System (EPS) and about 6,300 are married to Koreans.

Harness the strength of korea and Filipino culteres

He also said that, multicultural families especially to those who are living in big cities like Incheon city are in a very privileged position to learn and harness the strength of these two cultures because of their exposure to both Filipino and Korean cultures. This means, while these Filipinos are joining the program to know more about Korea¡¯s culture, language and people, the Korean spouses and the in-laws should also learn Filipino culture and keeping an open mind.

This means, while these Filipinos are joining the program to know more about Korea¡¯s culture, language and people, the Korean spouses and the in-laws should also learn Filipino culture and keeping an open mind.

Lastly, the Ambassador¡¯s message to Korea , ¡°it¡¯s difficult to become a migrant because we are leaving the comforts of our home, leaving the company of family, and leaving the support of the community where they grew up but thanks to the Korean people for welcoming them in their homes, community and churches. We also appreciate the support of the local government through these multicultural centers.

¡°We sincerely thank the Korean people for being good Samaritans for these immigrants¡±
