#VODWFutureVoices
Having a clear understanding, knowledge and skills to become a public spokeswoman will enable me to promote the importance of migrant domestic workers in the care economy and their well-being so the government and wider public will honour and respect us
My Story
I am Jenny, 35 years old, I was born in the Philippines. I believe in the saying “Poverty is not the hindrance to success“, this quote is my motivation in life to pursue and finish my studies as a working student. I was employed right after I graduated in the government sector but the salary was not enough to feed my family.
I left a good job in the Philippines and ventured abroad to try my luck and for money for my family’s future. After a long journey, now I am one of the active members of The Voice of Domestic Worker and I am happy to be selected to participate in Future Voice of Migrant Domestic Workers fighting for their rights.
