DAY TWO: Malate, Manila - The Work Begins

Today's IC for the day is Daphne. Like Terence she will be assisting the permanent student helpers Nisha and Gibryon. She is very diligent. We got the wakeup call from her at 6am. The schedule today will be more hectic.

We will be meeting the POEA (Philippines OVerseas Workers Administration) from 0800hrs to 1030hrs.

In the afternoon, we will be briefed by OWWA, the Overseas Workers Welfare Administration from 1330 to 1430 hrs.

We will then be head back to the hotel to meet Asia Foundation and three NGOs specialising in analysing and helping victims of human trafficking.

We will update the blog later again tonight and add the pictures if any.
