Chair, AMMPO Assosasyon ng mga Makabayang Manggagawang Pilipino Overseas in Malaysia
Malaysia
Anna is the Chairperson of AMMPO Assosasyon ng mga Makahayang Manggagawang Pilipino Overseas. As Chairperson, she gives the orientation seminar to those who have joined the group, facilitate members and handles cases of migrant workers. Last November in 2016, AMMPO SENTRO conducted a forum on migrants which focused on migration policy in Malaysia. AMMPO is currently running a campaign to request the Philippines embassy to open on every Sunday to assist with migrants. Anna considers that the biggest challenge that migrant workers face is the lack of equal rights between locals and migrants. From the DTP workshop she hopes to gain a greater understanding of the domestic legal and international mechanisms in place which protect the rights of migrant workers.
