BAHRAIN has renewed its commitment to protect the rights of overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) as Manama and Manila vowed to strengthen bilateral ties based on deep respect, shared values and true friendship.

This commitment was renewed when Bahrain’s Crown Prince and Prime Minister His Royal Highness Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa received Presidential Assistant on Foreign Affairs Robert Borje, special envoy of President Rodrigo Duterte, on December 31.
