have you tried looking for a job abroad thru agencies in the Philippines??? Mostof these blood sucking agencies get payments from the employer and asks more payment from the applicants. As a result the employer gives a meager salary to the applicant. I tried this back at home 2 years ago, the best offer i got was 4500 AED inclusive of all. I Applied in the UAE got a minimum offer of 8000 AED, then i got my job here from UAE which is way more that that. Pardon my french, the reason we go abroad is money, why settle for a meager one when you know that you can have a a better offer by going here on a visit or business visa?
