The Department of Foreign Affairs confirms that 10 more Filipinos from Oddar Meanchey Province in Cambodia were safely repatriated earlier today with the assistance of Cambodian law enforcement authorities and the Philippine Embassy in Phnom Penh. Representatives from government agencies, including the DFA, DMW, OWWA, and IACAT, were at the airport to personally receive the 10 repatriates and provide them assistance.
In addition to other identified needs, the Philippine Embassy distributed to them care packages and paid for their repatriation flight using the Department of Foreign Affairs’ Assistance to Nationals (ATN) Fund.
Upon the 10 Filipinos’ arrival at the Immigration headquarters in Phnom Penh yesterday after a nine-hour journey from Oddar Meanchey, the ATN team of the Philippine Embassy in Phnom Penh delivered to the group hot meals and a fresh batch of care packages.
This latest series of repatriation of Filipinos was undertaken on the back of long-standing friendly ties between the Philippines and Cambodia. The Philippine Embassy has conveyed its profound appreciation to the Royal Government of Cambodia for the favorable attention given to the Philippine Government’s representations for the 10 Filipinos to be brought home to their families.
The entire Philippine Foreign Service renews its call for the Filipino public to heed the Embassy’s Advisory No. 09-2025 on deceptive overseas job opportunities peddled on social media, which could bring miserable, even harmful outcomes in some cases.
While always ready to extend prompt Assistance-to-Nationals service, the Philippine Embassy urges prudence and discernment among Filipino online job seekers.
Tumulong po tayong pigilan mauwi sa kapahamakan ang ating kapwa Pilipino. END
With reference to Advisory No. 08-2025 titled “Standard Procedures for Filipinos Requesting to be Released or Repatriated”, the Philippine Embassy in Phnom Penh continues to extend diligent Assistance-to-Nationals (ATN) services to Filipinos, including those seeking repatriation from Cambodia.
