THE regional office of the Philippine Overseas Employment Agency (POEA)-Northern Mindanao said the National Government will continue to implement measures to sustain the confidence reaped by overseas Filipinos for their hard work and contribution to the country's economy through their dollar remittances.

Ann Apasra S. Abas, officer-in-charge of the POEA Regional Extension Unit in Northern Mindanao, issued this statement.

She said Filipino migrant workers all over the world had sent home almost $1 billion for the month of September alone.

"We expect them to send in more of their money during the Christmas season, something that we look forward to support the national government's resolve to push our economic roadmap forward," she said.

Meanwhile, Abas announces the batch recruitment of nurses bound for the USA by the Health Care Corporation of America (HCCA) on November 27, 2006, 8 a.m.-5 p.m. at the Mullberry Inn, LimKetKai Drive, Cagayan de Oro City, who meets the following qualifications:
