South Korean envoy lauds Pampanga OFWs as ‘reliable’
CITY OF SAN FERNANDO—South Korean Ambassador to the Philippines Lee Hye-min has underscored the important contribution of overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) based in Pampanga and vowed to work further with Gov. Lilia Pineda to send more of her constituents to work as factory and skilled workers in South Korea.
Lee, during a courtesy call to Pineda on Friday at the Capitol, told Pineda that Korean investors had prepared to hire Kapampangas (local term for Pampanga folk) because they are “kind. hardworking and reliable.”
“I just came here to thank the governor for the workers from Pampanga,” said Lee, who arrived on schedule at 11 a.m. for the one-hour meeting and ceremonial with Pineda and Pampanga Board Members Cris Garbo, Trina Dizon, Monz Laus, Jun Dimson and Fritzie David-Dizon.
Lee said he also visited to meet with leaders of South Korean firms based in the Pampanga numbering at least 13,000. Most of them are based in Angeles City and the Clark Freeport, he said.
Pineda expressed elation over the preference of South Korean businessmen to OFWs based in the province, considered as the regional center of Central Luzon.
“Indeed, our greatest asset is our people who are beautiful inside and out,” said Pineda in the dialect.
“The Kapampangans are not just talented but are passionate in everything they do,” she said.
Pineda said with help of her children – former Mayor Dennis Pineda and incumbent Lubao Mayor Mylyn Pineda-Cayabyab – they were able to assist more than 6,000 people to get high-paying jobs in South Korea. She added that most of whom are from their hometown of Lubao.
“It’s a collective effort. My children and I were just a small part of helping get quality jobs for Pampanga residents,” Pineda said, adding that when she assumed her post in 2010, there were some 2,000 OFWs in South Korea.
Pineda, who is set to be honored today at the Capitol for being conferred “Most Outstanding Governor” of the Philippines on Public Employment Service Office (Peso), said the province “is always committed to help OFWs since day one [of her administration].”
