ASEANEWS: MANILA – Global outbreak to cut 7,000 Philippine jobs

At least 7,000 workers in airlines, cruise ships, travel agencies, and hotel and restaurants were about to be laid off within the next six months as more enterprises are forced to implement retrenchment programs to cope with the business losses caused by the growing 2019 coronavirus disease outbreak crisis worldwide, according to a big labor group.
