Bigger budget for PH embassy in Prague eyed

SEN. Robinhood Padilla has vowed to push for an increase in the budget of the Philippine Embassy in the Czech Republic to ensure the protection and welfare of 10,000 Filipino workers allowed to enter the country yearly.

Padilla made the promise during a post-arrival orientation seminar and consular outreach for overseas Filipino workers (OFWs), where he also cited the 'equal pay' policy of the Czech government.
