Luciana M. Obejas, from Sto. Niño, Tanauan, Leyte, has spent 18 years working abroad as a caregiver in Jordan. Beyond her daily duties, she has consistently served the Filipino community as President of the Federation of Filipino Associations in Amman (FEFAA) and as a dedicated advocate for migrant workers.
As a finalist in the LIKHA Global Business Plan Competition, she hopes to establish her Family Farming and Tourism Project. This dream is deeply rooted in a promise to her father, Tatay Pesing, whose long-held dream of securing and developing their land is one she hopes to bring to life as a lasting family legacy. Luciana looks forward to returning home to retire as an OFW and applying everything she has learned abroad to build a farm that can support her family and create sustainable opportunities for the people in her hometown.
Her message to her fellow OFWs centers on positivity and perseverance, reminding them that the future begins with the thoughts they nurture. She expresses her deepest gratitude to God, to Labor Attaché Armi Peña and MWO-Jordan, to the FEFAA community, and to everyone who supported her journey. As she celebrates this milestone as a LIKHA GLOBAL winner, she extends her heartfelt thanks and warm congratulations to her fellow achievers.

Eid Al Adha Mubarak from Migrant Workers Office Bahrain

23/05/2026

Another successful repatriation mission has been concluded as our distressed OFWs from Kuwait safely departed for the Philippines with the full assistance and support of the Philippine Embassy, Migrant Workers Office, and Overseas Worker Welfare Administration in Bahrin.

Over the course of the repatriation operations, a total of 159 Overseas Filipino Workers and dependents were assisted in their journey home:

• Tuesday, 19 May 2026 – 69 pax
• Wednesday, 20 May 2026 – 76 pax
• Thursday, 21 May 2026 – 14 pax

The Philippine Ambassador for the Kingdom of Bahrain, H.E. Gines “Bing” Gallaga, personally welcomed and extended support and assistance to the repatriates inside the airport, ensuring a smooth, safe, and orderly departure process for our kababayans during this important journey home. Embassy personnel, together with MWO Bahrain and OWWA Bahrain, worked closely to provide immediate assistance, guidance, and welfare support throughout the operation.

The Embassy remains steadfast in its commitment to protect the welfare and well-being of Overseas Filipinos, especially during times of uncertainty and crisis. Through continued coordination and compassionate public service, the Philippine Embassy, MWO Bahrain, and OWWA Bahrain continue to stand beside every Filipino in need.

To all our returning OFWs and their families, may your homecoming bring comfort, healing, renewed hope, and new beginnings with your loved ones. Your sacrifices and resilience continue to inspire us all.

Mabuhay ang ating mga Bagong Bayani! 🇵🇭❤️
