ZTE Consequences OFWs wants Gloria OUST!!

An alliance of migrant workers organizations launched on Tuesday an online signature campaign for a petition seeking the immediate resignation of President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo over irregularities in the $329.48-million contract for the national broadband network project and other alleged anomalies under her administration.

The petition aims to gather signatures of overseas Filipino workers from all over the world, particularly in countries where they are heavily concentrated, like Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore, Korea, Japan, Australia, United Arab emirates, Kuwait, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Italy, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Canada and the United States.

Migrante International is spearheading the campaign through its overseas chapters, according to Connie Bragas-Regalado, the group’s chairperson.

The group’s chapter in Saudi Arabia said it has actually began a signature campaign last week, and it has spread throughout the Middle East.

Migrante Middle East regional coordinator John Leonard Monterona said the signature campaign for Arroyo’s resignation gathered 1, 200 signatories on the first day it was launched in Saudi Arabia.

Migrante’s chapters in Kuwait, Jordan, Bahrain and Qatar have also started collecting signatures for the petition.

In Hong Kong, church-based and other groups have united in support of Rodolfo Noel Lozada Jr., key witness in the Senate investigation of irregularities in the $329.48-million contract for the government’s national broadband network project, and in pressing for the resignation of Arroyo.
Migrants groups in Hong Kong formed in November last year a coalition called Gloria Step Down Movement and gathered at least 10, 000 signatures in just five weeks for the resignation of Mrs. Arroyo.

Relatives and friends of OFWs are also target signatories to the new petition dubbed as BAgong Bayani AYaw kay Gloria, or BABAY Gloria.

“This BABAY Gloria petition encapsulates how our kababayans abroad unite with the people’s demand for Gloria to step down. It will be circulated among our member organizations and international network," Regalado said at the launching of the petition on T.M. Kalaw Street in Manila where hundreds of seafarers congregate daily for overseas job posting.
The petition is posted at http://www.petitiononline.com/babay/petition.html As of 5 p.m. on Tuesday, the petition has only 57 signatures online, but the groups said hard copies of the petition are being passed around for signatures.

“We have had enough of seven years of your administration’s high-level corruption, gross human rights violations, political killings, abductions, electoral fraud, artificial economic development and subservience to foreign interests. We have had enough of your policy to export and commodify our labor, your extortion and criminal neglect of migrant workers and their families," the petition, addressed to Mrs. Arroyo, said.

It cited survey results conducted by think tank IBON Foundation in January and Pulse Asia in October 2007 showing that eight out of 10 Filipinos want Arroyo to step down and that most Filipinos believe she is the “most corrupt President in the history of the Philippines."

“Through your billion-peso kickbacks, you essentially steal food away from our families’ plate, rob our children’s access to quality education, deprive our sick adequate public health care and withhold from migrants the urgent welfare services we need," the petition further said.

The migrants groups vowed to vigorously pursue the petition until President Arroyo is out of Malacanang, along with the corrupt officials in her government.

“Given our recent victories to save the life of Marilou Ranario and for the temporary suspension of POEA Memorandum Circular No 04, or the Guidelines on Direct Hiring, we are confident that when overseas Filipinos and their families unite, much can be achieved," Regalado said.
“As such," she continued, “in line with CBCP president Angel Lagdameo’s call for ‘communal action’ and recalling the spirit of EDSA 1 and EDSA 2, we commit to again rise up to the challenge of booting yet another corrupt and dictatorial President out of office," the petition further contained.
