daku daku ba ug deperensya sa sweldo bro if agi agency or wala?

[i_the_mighty]

Singit ko gamay mga bossing... Sa pa-striktohay gikan sa pinaka... KSA - QATAR - UAE

@SioDenz diperensya sa sweldo base sa experience. Kasagaran private companies gamay ang starting basic, gamay ra sad ang placement fee (I guess, kung wa ko masayop, normally ang placement is equal sa imong 1 month nga basic salary). Mao na ako naagian before.

Ang sa akong asawa sad, kani sa gov't, nangapply sya dinhi sa Qatar as nurse pero gi-abisuhan sya sa HR nga papaulion paagion og agency. Ang katarungan kay di niya makuha iya allowances kung locally hired sya. So mao to niuli sya.

Sa akoa sad, 2nd company pagbalhin nako, siguro dala na sad nga naa koy GCC experience mao niasenso gamay akoang sweldo. Para nako if naa nka dinhi sayon na lang man makakita og lain company. Kay matod pa sa akong mga kaila nga HR, kung naa lay budget ang company ara sila mokuha anang change sponsor lang kontra sa molukat og bago.

BALIKBAYAN BEWARE: DTI blacklists 23 local, 28 foreign cargo forwarders

MANILA - (UPDATED 7:03 p.m.) Ahead of the holiday gift-giving season, the Department of Trade and Industry has blacklisted 23 local cargo forwarders and their 28 foreign counterparts following rising complaints of undelivered balikbayan boxes.

The DTI on Tuesday identified the following local freight forwarders as having no accreditation with the department’s Philippine Shippers Bureau, and as having been the subject of complaints on undelivered packages:

- 2GO Express Inc.;

- Aerosend;

- Alas Cargo Phil.;

- Associated Consolidation Express;

- Dausan International Forwarder;

- FACF Parcel Delivery;

- FRS Philippine Freight Services Inc.;

- International Cargo Forwarder;

- J.J. Transglobal Brokerage;

- JAR Cargo Forwarders;

- Mail Plus Cargo Carriers;

- Manila Broker;

- Maru Cargo Logistics Phil.;

- R&M Cargo Services;

- Rodah Cargo Manila;

- South Atlantic Cargo Inc.;

- Trico International Forwarding (Phils) Inc.; and

- VCG Customs Brokerage.

The following companies, while accredited, have been blacklisted and subject to DTI show cause orders because of complaints on undelivered balikbayan boxes:

- D’ Winner Logistics Phil. Inc.;

- LCSN Express Movers Inc.;

- MC Plus Inc.;

- Transtech Global Phil Inc.; and

- Wide wide World Express Corp.

The DTI-PSB also blacklisted 28 foreign principals and overseas consolidators that had been the subject of complaints on undelivered packages (see table below).


“Overseas Filipino workers who will send their balikbayan boxes and their consignees in the Philippines should book their packages only with reliable and PSB-accredited freight forwarders and Philippine agents to ensure that their packages will reach their destinations,” said Victorio Mario Dimagiba, DTI-PSB director-in-charge, in a statement.

“Senders may verify the company name of the Philippine sea freight forwarder counterpart at www.dti.gov.ph, or they may visit our Philippine Consulate offices abroad,” he said.

Dimagiba said foreign principals and cargo consolidators overseas must have local counterparts that are accredited by the DTI-PSB if it is a sea cargo forwarder and the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines if an air cargo forwarder.

He also warned cargo senders from abroad against very low door-to-door rates that some foreign principals offer. “With low rates, they [foreign principals] do not have enough funds to bear the cost of transporting cargoes, and they fail to remit delivery funds to their Philippine freight forwarders, causing the shipments to be abandoned at the ports and not being delivered to consignees,” the DTI official said.

“For consignees in the Philippines who have not received their packages from freight forwarders, they may contact DTI (02-751-3330) or go to PSB office to file an immediate claim or complaint,” he added.
