The Department of Migrant Workers (DMW) confirmed that two Filipinos have sustained injuries from the rainstorm that occurred in Hong Kong on Saturday.
In an X (formerly Twitter) post on Sunday, May 5, Migrant Workers Secretary Hans Cacdac said the two OFWs are spouses who work in a Sai Kung resort that was affected by a landslide following the rainstorm.
“The OFWs—wife and husband—are in the hospital with a head and leg injury, respectively,” said Cacdac.
Cacdac noted that the husband is scheduled to undergo an operation on his injured leg.
Meanwhile, the two are now in "stable condition".
Cacdac assured that DMW and the Overseas Workers Welfare Administration are closely monitoring the condition of the two and have provided them with financial assistance.
