EDITORIALS–CARTOONS: MANILA – Pinay DHs sa Kuwait hindi napuprotektahan

 Pinay DHs sa Kuwait hindi napuprotektahan
(Pilipino Star Ngayon) – May 26, 2019 – 12:00am

 .

HINDI nasunod ang memorandum of understan­ding ng Pilipinas at Kuwait na naglalayong maprotektahan ang mga Pilipino workers doon. Nawalan ng saysay ang paglagda ng Kuwait sapagkat mayroon na namang Pilipinang domestic helper na inabuso, ginahasa at pinatay pa ng sariling amo. Karumal-dumal ang ginawa kay Constancia Dayag, 47, na namatay dahil sa bugbog at pinasakan pa ng cucumber ang ari nito. Dinala sa ospital si Dayag pero namatay din. Hindi pa lumalabas ang autopsy report sa bangkay ni Dayag na dineklarang patay noong nakaraang Martes.

Dumating ang bangkay ni Dayag sa NAIA noong Huwebes. Punumpuno ng kalungkutan ang pamilya sa pagkikitang iyon. Humihingi sila hustisya. Ayon sa anak ni Dayag, natatakot silang magkaroon ng “white-wash” sa kaso ng kanilang ina. Ayon sa TV report, nang umuwi si Dayag noong nakaraang taon, sinabi nito sa mga anak na pinagseselosan siya ng among babae. Mayroon na umanong namamagitan na hindi maganda sa amo nitong babae. Humihingi ng hustisya ang pamilya ni Dayag.

Noong nakaraang taon, pinatay din ang Pinay na si Joanna Demafelis ng kanyang mga among Lebanese. Makaraang patayin, isinilid ang katawan nito sa freezer. Ang pagpatay ang naging dahilan para ipatigil ni President Duterte ang pagpapadala ng domestic helper sa Kuwait. Sabi pa ng Presidente, bakit kailangang abusuhin ng mga Kuwaiti ang mga Pinay. Ano raw ang kasalanan ng mga ito sa Kuwaiti?

The Sunday Times says
When naming conventions are in order
.

.
No one speaks of Shakespeare William the great playwright, Einstein Albert the theoretical physicist, Jackson Michael the singer, or Trump Donald the President of America. That is understandably so. The sequential order in which their given names and surnames appear reflects their cultural heritage. In Western societies, the privileging of the former over the latter could signify the agency of individuality over that of progeny. That choice is fine because those societies desire to be named and ordered that way. Equally, then, other societies must be able to choose how to name themselves. The general Chinese preference, for surnames to be followed by given names, reflects the emphasis placed on inherited identities without denying the individual’s role in personalising and extending those identities.

That choice is as legitimate as Indonesians preferring often to go by a single name, a choice that does not erase received identities but does not name them. In the circumstances, it is also perfectly understandable that at least two ministers in the Japanese Cabinet are pushing for a reversal of the given-name-first convention that Japan has followed since the early 20th century.
