+ July 03, 2021 SKILLED Filipino workers are still among the foreign nationals not allowed to enter Kuwait as part of measures against the coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) pandemic.
Only diplomats and household service workers will be allowed to enter the country, Philippine Labor Attaché to Kuwait Nasser Mustafa said.
Mustafa called on the Philippine Overseas Employment Administration (POEA) on Friday, July 2, 2021, to temporarily stop the issuance of overseas employment certificate (OEC) to overseas Filipino workers (OFWs), who are not household service workers, bound for Kuwait. Only domestic workers are allowed to enter Kuwait. Skilled workers remain banned here, said Mustafa. This is why we are asking the POEA to temporarily suspend issuance of OECs to our skilled workers because they cannot enter Kuwait, he added.

An overseas Filipino worker (OFW) couple who recently filed sexual harassment and bribery charges against Philippine Labor Attaché Nasser Mustafa before the Philippine Embassy in Riyadh has asked Saudi Arabian authorities to step in and conduct a probe concerning their case.
In a letter to the Kingdom’s Administration of Expatriate Affairs and the Chief of Police of Riyadh, Herbert and Aireen Mayores said they were left with no other choice but to file a complaint against Mustafa, days after Mustafa lodged a libel case against the couple before the Saudi police.
“May we ask from your honorable office for assistance to execute a thorough investigation we are very much willing to cooperate in the best way we can in the service of the Saudi government,” the husband-and-wife OFW asked the Saudi authorities in a letter dated Dec. 6, 2020.
