What's your take on Philipinos joining the May 1st march.?

Question

I couldn't get the article, but found one last year. http://www.asianjournal.com/?c=45&a=11934
I never thought there is a substantial problem with illegal Philipinos before. It seems to be made up of people who visit legal residents and overstay their visas. I don't like their bayanihan culture arguement of helping others no matter what. If your in America, you need to follow our laws and culture over there own. I'm concern because the Philipinos are well organized in illegally helping legal immigrants get to the US. My Philipino friends use to tell they know people who would buy college degrees and that there is a network to help cheat to gain licenses in the United States. I wouldn't want them to use the same organizational skills to spur another wave of illegal immigration, especially with how wide spread their licensing scam is. I've seen a huge problem in the Medical facilities because of it. By the way,My friends don't like the law breakers because it make them look bad.

Last part of my statemnt is that lessor illegal activitiees might lead to far more serious ones. Illegal immigrants might lead to far more underqualified nurses working in the hospitals.

I hope when Jose gets kicked by an Anti he goes to the Hospital to be treated on tax payers money by one of the nurses who cheated in getting her license.

In California, Philipinos make up the bulk of Medical workers, and I work with alot of them . I estimate 20% of those I work or unqualified. Its scary to have unqualified workers in Medicine. As for nursing license, their is a self imposed sanction in the Philipines in importing nurses in the US, because they caught government officials aiding in cheating in the board exam. I got the article saved in word. If some wants it I guess i can e-mail it.

Thanks Garcia. Doesn't say much otehr than their marching. Like to know more on what they want though.

Heres part of the nurse article:
Philippines to appeal US nurse ban
Fri Feb 16, 11:34 PM ET
MANILA (AFP) - The Philippine government is to appeal a move by the US to ban some 17,000 nurses who passed the 2006 nursing examination amid allegations of mass cheating.
ADVERTISEMENT

The United States Commission on Graduates of Foreign Nursing Schools (CGFNS) issued the temporary ban this week insisting that Filipino nurses retake sections of the 2006 examination where mass cheating took place.
President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo on Friday ordered Labor Secretary Arturo Brion to appeal the decision.
The order comes after a nursing review centre disclosed it had leaked answers to some students who took the examinations.
The scandal rocked the country's medical profession and cast a shadow over the quality of its nurses, who are in high demand overseas, especially in the United States, Europe and the Middle East.

Philipinos marching

Answer 2

I don't know why you're focusing on filipinos but if people decide to march May 1st, it's up to them.

I think it's called Freedom of Speech. Remember that? It's in the US Constitution.

Don't tell me only illegals are marching. That's a load of bull.

Also, in regards to underqualified nurses, I believe nurses have to take an state administered exam to get a license. These aren't take home exams so cheating is quite difficult. It's not like the hospitals will hire you just for having a degree.

We're so focused on deporting illegals, but it's not illegals giving illegals jobs. It's the "Americans" giving illegals jobs. Many Americans ignore that - they hire them as nannies, restaurant workers, office workers, medial professionals... We should start fining those companies for hiring "illegals".

Also, what's ironic about people complaining about illegal immigrants is that the "illegals" are probably working a lot harder than a lot of the complainers posting on this board. There are very few Americans that are willing to do hard work. They'd rather go on welfare than do hard work.

Answer 3

a minimum of in my section, 2 is unquestionably the respond. final 365 days, the "protest" went on for miles and miles in Prince William Co. and became the catalyst for the recent "Rule of regulation" decision which made nationwide headlines as being between the toughest anti-unlawful alien regulations interior the country. (individually, i do no longer think of it is going almost far adequate.) in spite of the undeniable fact that that is in basic terms been in result now for some months, the success has been staggering. no longer in basic terms have the illegals left in droves, they have been too afraid to hold a march interior the county this 365 days. rather, there became a Maryland, Virginia and Washington DC rally mixed in DC which became significantly smaller than the only in Prince William Co final 365 days. Political stress works lots greater suitable than any march. Our enforcement coverage is working ok.

Answer 4

I think all illegals should march, then while they are all together, round them all up and send them back to their home countries.
They are breaking the laws of the nation when they enter here illegally. They need to file the proper paperwork and enter here legally.
My spouse filed the papers and payed the fees and became a citizen. She gets even more irate then I do about illegals. She feels it's a slap in her face, since she did what was required and followed the laws.

Answer 5

Slay them all, God will know his own.

Answer 6

IT'S DUMB!
