Bello said he would sign a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) on the terms of the job opening after the close of the 31st Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) Summit in Manila.
“I still do not know the number of workers stated in the MOU,” Bello said, but noted that in an earlier meeting with Chinese officials, they talked about 100,000 Filipino teachers and 100,000 Filipino HSWs to be hired.
Labor officials said China wants to hire Filipino workers because of their proficiency in English as well as their good work attitude.
