Should Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs) really be branded as the new national heroes?

Question

I read a lot about the growing issue my countrymen overseas face. And through most of them, I find them more depicted as victims instead of heroes. They're always being harassed, they have families who no longer even recognize them, and the racial discrimination they often face is appaling.

Another question: Which countries do OFWs seem to face less discrimination and abuse? How about most discrimination?

I'm still curious because millions of Filipinos are living abroad and the different opinions (both from the pov of OFWs and the people of their host country) I've read about them are rather various.

Answer 1

I think they are heroes. Away from home. Culture shock and the discrimination they are facing is horrendous. As the Filipinos is a happy natured nation, they are still smiling and they try to appear happy, but I've seen them cry and it break my heart
