By Armida Rico, Abante, Feb 21, 2017
Isang Pinay worker ang matagumpay na nasagip sa tiyak na kapahamakan mula sa kamay ng kanyang employer sa Jordan dahil sa pagtutulungan ng media, ng isang non-governmental organization (NGO) at ng labor attaché ng nasabing bansa.
Sabado nang unang ilabas ng Abante ang pagpapasaklolo ni Josalyn Ombe, nagtatrabaho bilang domestic helper sa Jordan matapos magpasaklolo sa pamamagitan ng Abante Facebook page. Agad itong inilapit ng Abante kay Susan Ople ng Blas Ople Center na siya namang nakipag-ugnayan kay Labor Attaché Linda Herrera ng Overseas Worker Welfare Administration-Philippine Overseas Labor Office (OWWA-POLO) sa nasabing bansa.
