The Turkish Government is taking the necessary action to alleviate the effects of the current economic condition on its citizen’s work, salary and daily expenses. But despite its efforts, the employers are unable to provide adequate salary to employees and majority of Turks are laid off from their work.

The Filipino Community, as well as their relatives and friends, are hereby advised to turn down any job offer to Turkey as currently no job opportunities are available to foreigners, including Filipinos.END
