All these efforts came despite recent issues between the Philippines and Taiwan in which after a Philippine labor attaché in Taiwan sought for the deportation of a Filipina worker who criticized President Rodrigo Duterte’s COVID-19 response — despite deportation being the sole responsibility of the host country.
