From Muscat to Mindanao: The Politics of the Filipino Diaspora

Just spoke to a Filipina Muslim in a mall in Muscat who is here for 6 years from Mindanao, who is a die hard supporter of President Dueterte, as he is from the south as well and that most of his administration is from Davao City instead of Visayas or Luzon; she said emphatically ‘in the History of the Philippines’. She loves Oman for the quiet and lack of opportunities to spend money, so she could save more. She spoke very good English, with a clear tonality, and must be having a college degree.
