More jobs for Pinoys in Saudi ahead of World Cup

The Philippine Star

|

December 22, 2024

More jobs await skilled Filipino workers in Saudi Arabia as the Middle Eastern nation prepares for its hosting of the World Cup in 2034, according to outgoing Saudi Arabia Ambassador Hisham Sultan Abdullah Alqahtani.

-  Helen Flores

In a statement released yesterday, the Presidential Communications Office said the envoy told President Marcos during his farewell call on Thursday that the kingdom would need skilled Filipino workers for the rail projects and the "mega projects" in Jeddah and the northern region of the country.

The World Cup is the most watched sporting event in the world.

Marcos told Alqahtani that the Philippines could send workers as long as it has an available workforce.

Despite global competition, Filipinos still have an edge as workers, the President noted.

There are almost a million Filipinos living or working in Saudi Arabia, based on recent data.
