I am forced to marry to be able to work abroad as a couple. I didnt know that the fake papers were registered in NSO. The witnesses' names and signatures, parents signatures are fake. There was no ceremony and the venue and ministers are also ...

It is easier for us foreigners to get visas, yes there is red tape but we have the resources to deal with it. For filipinos it is much more difficult if not impossible if an employer does not sponsor them. we should not judge. Read More
