OFWs troop to Philippine Consulate in HK on last day of absentee voter registration

Overseas Filipino workers in Hong Kong flocked to the Philippine consulate on the last day of the absentee voter registration for the 2022 elections.

According to a report on "Saksi" on Thursday, the lines were almost unending.

Some OFWs went home without registering after failing to make it in the number of individuals who can only be accommodated per day.

GMA News already reached out to the Commission on Elections regarding the matter but it has yet to respond as of posting time.
