The Taiwan Government has informed Manila Economic and Cultural Office (MECO) of the said accident and conveyed its deepest sympathy to all the Filipinos affected. In the meantime, the Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in the Philippines has worked closely with the offices of MECO both in Manila and in Taipei to provide necessary information and assistance to all the related parties.
Our thoughts and prayers are with the affected families of Overseas Filipino Workers and may their heart and soul find peace and comfort.
