The government cannot abandon them,” said Bishop Ruperto Santos of Balanga, the president of the Commission for the Pastoral Care of Migrants and Itinerant People of the Catholic Bishops' Conference of the Philippines (CBCP). He has asked Manila to make every effort so that " their agony and their sorrow is not prolonged." His words came in the wake of the homecoming of Filipino worker, Joseph Urbiztondo, after 25 years in detention in Kuwait.
