To all our kababayans working in Saudi Arabia and are under home quarantine/lock down, please wait for the DOLE guidelines to POLO to start the financial assistance distribution and please be very strict with obeying the rules and guidelines of saudi authorities regarding the Social distancing.
Ambassador Adnan Alonto releases his message to all OFW in Saudi Arabia. He cleared some issues regarding the cash assistance that the DOLE announced recently and was repeatedly explained by the Labor Attache Nasser Mustafa. The $200 cash assistance will not be distributed yet by POLO at the moment becoz there are no guidelines yet from DOLE. It will not be good to everybody to force to go to POLO to ask for this. The fund for this assistance hasn't arrived yet due to lack of banking transaction. POLO is coordinating with the DOLE already. Please be safe and obey the guidelines of home quarantine and social distancing. Thank you.
