Would you go abroad or stay to get a stable job?

Easy? You think its easier to work abroad than in your home town. The only reason why people go outside PH territory because the country dont have opportunities to offer its people that's why people went to other place to seek work. They just don't go there to earn big money, its because the main reason to go there is to look for money, even its a small amount or a big amount money is needed to live. Pinoy only think money is easier to earn outside PH is because of the money value.
If I only have a stable work on the PH i rather stay in my home town rather than pursue a career outside PH. PH is suck to live if you don't have enough money for a living. Unluck here were i stay for a while, even if you don't have a work you still eat 3 times a day with the support of the government.
I have a friend who is a tricycle driver on PH. He use to earn 80php a day staying on the road all day. I ask him if he still want to stay PH earning a small amount of money not enough to feed everyone of his family or stay here in the place were he earn enough money to live and buy things he can never buy when driving a tricycle.
For me i guess i'll be back to my home country after i earn enough money to live in a poor place and create a business. After i establish my life, i can now say its better to live to PH rather than work outside the country.

any work, entails a lot of hardwork. Wherever it maybe. I think easy is n0t the right term but a bigger chance of earning a lot abroad, yeah because of the m0ney value. If i have saved en0ugh after working abroad, i will still want to go back and build my own business.

i think iamnumbled meant easy to save money abroad as they give higher pay those those here in the Philippines. Talented Filipinos are being brain drained and they are all moving out of the country as they are seeking for higher compensation and benefits.

Im with you. Homesickness is the number enemy of oversea pilipino workers. I guess im one of them. But thx to this technology imanage to take a some of my sadness away.

oh thats true! Homesickness is scary, being away from your family. But sometimes we have to sacrifice to be able to support your family. I still admire those who go abroad because they can endure all that for the sake of giving their families a better life.

yes you are right. You really have to give credit who works painstakingly abroad. It is terrible work and great expectations outside of the country, it is not only heartaches that they have to put up with. and the competition is a lot harder outside. Kudos to OFWs! They really are heroes to both country and family!

theyre realy heroes of this country. its hard being away from your family.

sad to say but you are right. We still dont have better hospital facilities and n0t everyone can afford it which is so unfair. Thats a great system they have in London. We should be adapting to those kinds of facilities.

good that it worked out well and you chose to have a baby. Well 2 years is a sh0rt time to earn a lot but at least it can help. 2 years here and 2 years abroad has a big difference in terms of earning m0ney.

That is so true... i was able to save a lot of money... more than what i earned during my 7 years of working as a teacher... but sad to say that the money is all gone... but it it is also good that i was able to buy a piece of lot... but it doesn't have a house yet... hopefully in the near future... we will be able to save up for that...

like what you said, you were able to buy a lot, so the m0ney went to a good investment. Hope things go well for you.

good for you=)

thats great! Well, just a questi0n, dont u think your engineering will be paid off better if youre abroad?=) but hey if you are satisfied, and can very well provide for your family, then n0 questi0ns asked. You are a good example.

definitely yes, have tried to apply for jobs abroad now and then just to check how well did my experience had led me so far. Most company offered a bigger compensation and the package are great (direct hiring, no fees, all expense paid, with free board and loading, etc). But still I would prefer to stay here and be with my family. Very contended and hoping that other Pinoys would do the same.

hope things go well for you=) and let it be an evidence that though working abroad is what most want, there are still those who prefer serving our own country. Kudos!

n0thing really compares to what they go through for those who work abroad. Its really a great sacrifice leaving your family behind but in turn putting a lot of inc0me to be able to fulfill their needs.

it is fortunate for you having a bachelor's degree and then finding companies hiring you on the spot here and there. However, let us also think that not everyone is lucky to have that experience. Some who do not have a choice resort to where they can get a higher inc0me, that is flying away from here.

i would agrne that there are a lot of earning opportunities here if people are smart but n0t every0ne also has the luxury of putting up a business and then being it an instant hit. Sometimes profit is earned but n0t en0ugh to make up for the large capital you spent, like in a year.

Given a chance I would like also to work abroad. The reason why Filipinos working abroad because the salary is much bigger compare here in the Philippines. In a short period of time they can save money to buy a properties here and help their families.

Everything has it's own risks. Not everyone who works abroad either ends up having a good life. Money might be good and won't be much of an issue but a lot of Filipinos ended up with some abusive employers. Also, because of the distance, many OFWs struggle with their family life, and worse, end up as broken families. But reality hits, for some, going abroad is their last resort because of the earning opportunities that it offers. Everything has a trade off. It's either live here in the Philippines with their families and struggle financially or go somewhere else to find better opportunities. Life is simply like that, there are sacrifices to be made.

i believe so. Everything or anywhere we choose to go, there will be risks. Sacrifices shall be done in the name of a good life and be a good provider. Sad to say that we have to resort to going abroad instead of staying here and work and earn the same, which is impossible.

yeah, im in a call center right now and pay is above average. a good option of not going out of the country.=)
