Ms. Celeste M. Valderrama, Director, International Labor Affairs Bureau, Department of Labor and Employment, Philippines, discusses how challenges are worked with and overcome (December, 2011).<\/p>\n
\u201cKeeping my people who are skilled already in this area of concern is a major challenge, but we do appreciate the support of the ILO in this area because they provide us with training opportunities, but it\u2019s quite limited, so even the number of people who are really trained to do the job is\u2026 We have to do it just one person at a time, right? \u2026 I don\u2019t know, maybe it\u2019s the commitment. Maybe they realize that the motivation is really knowing that there is no one else who can do this type of job. [laugh], and also knowing that we cannot afford to put a Government in an embarrassing position. The high level mission that came out after the finding has impressed on us more than ever the importance of paying details\u2026 of paying attention to the details of the report, so that we can ensure that , hmmmm\u2026 the evaluation by the Committee of Experts is based on a more complete, more comprehensive data. That is why our management, our leaders, put a lot of premium on this area of concern. But it\u2019s not only the reportorial obligation, it\u2019s not only commitment to the standards, compliance to the standards, it recognizes the value of international labour standards, because we have a lot of people everywhere overseas so we can\u2019t do it just by ourselves. We should be able to do it together with the rest of the world.\u201d<\/p>\n
