- DDS influencer Bruce Rivera slams fellow DDS influencer Thinking Pinoy.
- Bruce Rivera recounted Arnel Ignacio’s ordeal in Kuwait.
Known DDS influencer Atty. Bruce Rivera is in fighting mood again after blasting fellow DDS influencer RJ Nieto of Thinking Pinoy.
In a lengthy Facebook post, Rivera while not dropping names castigated what he called “major major” for its social media gaffe which endangered the lives of Filipino workers in Kuwait.
“Before lumabas sa Saksi, umabot na sa Kuwait government ang video dahil pinakalat ng major-majors ang video. Pinakalat na hindi man lang hinintay na makauwi ang mga nirescue at hindi man lang naka-blur yung mukha at info sa video” he wrote.
Fellow DDS influencer RJ Nieto of Thinking Pinoy was the one who uploaded the DFA video showing the rescue efforts for abused OFWs in Kuwait.
But the video apparently reached the Kuwaiti government, leading to the summon of Philippine Ambassador Villa and lodge a diplomatic protest.
“Ang ending, kulong ang pobreng mga OFW na ang isa dun ay end of contract at pauwi na dapat kaya bakit kailangan irescue. Siguradong nagamit sila sa papogi ng mga hinayupak ng officials na ito…Promise, hindi ko talaga kayo titigilan. Promise.” Rivera added.
Meanwhile, Rivera sympathized with OWWA Deputy Administrator Arnel Ignacio because their efforts were wasted following the DFA blunders.
According to Bruce, Ignacio was teary-eyed recounting what happened in Kuwait.
“Nakausap ko si kapatid na Arnell Arevalo Ignacio na Deputy Admin ng OWWA. Malungkot at naiiyak na nagbuhos ng sama ng loob sa akin” Rivera revealed.
According to him, Ignacio was in Kuwait to talk to the employers and fix the situation of OFW’s there. There could have been a great resolution but the rescue operation which was posted by Thinking Pinoy in social media ruined it all.
“Ilang linggo na nasa Kuwait si Arnel. Kinakausap ang mga Kuwaiti employers para ayusin ang sitwasyon. Maganda na sana ang bunga. May mga Kuwaiti na magfifinance sana ng OFW Academy, isang day-off center at madami pang ibang infrastructure para sa mga domestics…Pauwi na sila Arnel nung dumating sa eksena ang DFA. Hindi sila sinabihan sa gagawin. Hindi sila binigyan ng heads-up na may ganyan mga paandar ang mga tauhan ng DFA”, he continued.
