Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs) have been contributing to the government’s coffers through remittances for decades, helping to keep the economy afloat even during times of crisis. This was never more evident than when Covid-19 struck, causing enterprises and industries to be paralyzed by intermittent quarantines and lockdowns.
