    Beware of fake overseas jobs posted on Facebook The Philippine Overseas Employment Administration (POEA) warned jobseekers about scammers advertising fake overseas job vacancies on Facebook and other online job sites. Fake Overseas Job Openings Advertised Online The POEA reported that many job applicants recently inquired about a public Facebook group “Now Hiring Work Abroad 2018” that advertised job offers for various positions in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Japan, New Zealand, Australia, and other countries. Readers of the Facebook ads were asked to email their resume to an online job site. The job offer included attractive benefits such as high salary, high overtime pay rate, paid vacation leave, free transportation, free food and accommodation, and more. But then applicants were also required to pay for processing fees for their visa or work permit. An applicant reportedly received an email informing him that his job application for the United Kingdom had been approved. But he was also asked to deposit the visa fee of Php9,800.00 to a Philippine bank account within 48 hours. The POEA cautions the public against accepting a job offers that ask for payment of fees for seminars and document processing. This is one sign that a job offer is a scam. Warning Signs of Fake Overseas Jobs Overseas job applicants need to be careful when dealing with recruiters. Aside from recruiters demanding payment of fees, here are other warning signs of job scams that applicants should be aware of: 1. Vague job details Scammers list vague job descriptions and job requirements. Usually, real job listings have clear job descriptions and exact job requirements.

  • “The Poverty Challenge of Bangsamoro” January 28, 2019
    “MAPping the Future” Column in the INQUIRER Volume 5 Issue No. 04 map.org.ph January 29, 2019 “MAPping the Future” Column in the INQUIRER “The Poverty Challenge of Bangsamoro” January 28, 2019 ROLANDO T. DY The Bangsamoro Organic Law or BOL (Republic Act No. 11054) was signed by President Duterte on July 23, 2018. The new law provides for the creation of the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM) or simply the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region. It covers the provinces of Basilan, Lanao del Sur, Maguindanao, Sulu, and Tawi-Tawi, the same provinces as ARMM. When fully operational in 2022, BARMM residents will elect an 80-member parliament. The members of the parliament will then elect a Chief Minister and two Deputy Chief Ministers among themselves. The Chief Minister shall also appoint members of his Cabinet. The Shari'ah courts will have jurisdiction over cases exclusively involving Muslims in the region. But since the election will only happen in May 2022, all will be appointed next year (once the BOL is ratified) by the President and their term will last till May 2022. This period is referred to as the “transition period” from ARMM to BARMM. Will the BOL usher the start of broad-based poverty reduction in the region? This is a key strategic question as high poverty hounds the region. In 2015, of the 3.7 million people, 2.0 million people (53.7 percent) were poor. In contrast, its neighbors, Soccsksargen and Zamboanga Peninsula have 37.3 percent and 33.9 percent, respectively, compared to the national average (excluding NCR) of 25.4 percent.

  • Shakey's Pizza Asia Ventures, Inc. Annual Report 2017
    SHAKEY’S PIZZA ASIA VENTURES, INC. ANNUAL REPORT 2017 ABOUT THE COVER e rst time “WOW” was ever used as an expression of surprise was in Scotland in the 1500’s. Maybe some hungry Scotsman was served the most incredible haggis and, fumbling for words, muttered the rst thing he could think of: “WOW!” e expression spread like wildre, eventually crossing the Atlantic and into American lives to describe everything from excitement (“Wow, I’m so ready for dinner!”) to amazement (“Wow, this food is delicious!”) to delight (“Wow, I’m denitely coming back to this restaurant!”) Today, WOW is so much more than an expression of positive amazement. It has evolved into an action word. To WOW someone means to give them an extraordinary experience, to move them in a deep and delightful way. Which is how it is at Shakey's, where WOW is our guiding light and philosophy of service as we purposefully create great times and lasting memories for all our guests. From our welcoming door persons to our excellent chefs, attentive waiters, imaginative marketers, brainy accountants and reliable riders - we live, feel, and breathe the WOW philosophy. It truly is our way of life. And our goal? Deliver the best dining experience, weather any challenge, build shareholder condence, and boost our iconic brand both today and for many years to come.
