"COOKERY" cooking lessons, provided by POLO/OWWA, Macao 

In August, 2016 a number of interested Filipinos have joined in the free training course provided by POLO/OWWA in partnership with Caritas Macao.

The training was designed to provide skills to Filipinos in Macao in particular to those OFWs who wish to improve in their cooking.

Some Filipinos have noted that the pressure of working as a domestic helper is greatly attributed to their ability to be creative in the kitchen. This includes, planning meals for the family, budgetting and creating/cooking dishes appetizing to both children and adults.

Our Philippine government has always considered these issues and circumstances, OFWs around the world undergo every day of their lives. In order to meet-in with the needs of OFWs in Macao,   POLO/OWWA has continuously been providing skill-based trainings, seminars and classes.

One of the trainings was the "cookery", a cooking lesson given to interested Filipino individuals in Macao. The training aims to provide not only knowledge, experience and pratical hands-on cooking but also to help ease in the "boredom" and "homesickness" many if not all OFWs are experiencing.

Some of the participants in the training are as follows:

Filipinos are well-skilled individuals and for this reason,  there is no denying that a great chance to get to meet a Filipino anywhere in the world is high. You get to meet them anywhere because they are just amazing people who are willing to Explore, Learn and Socialize.

There is No doubt that their Government through its many different Departments continuous to cater into the Filipinos’ growing appetite to nurture Education, provide adequate knowledge and relevant trainings and to help them cope with the ever-improving global trends.

Prior to the August, 2016 “cookery” training provided by the POLO/OWWA in Macao,  

A group of individuals underwent intensive trainings to become Certified TESDA-NCII Passers. Successful individuals who passed the Edibility Tests were given opportunities to share and put to practice their cooking skills by training other Filipinos who wish to learn or enhance their cooking skills and increase in their knowledge about culinary.

One of the successful passers was Ms. Soccoro Manduriaga who is an OFW from Macao.

Through the active assistance of POLO/OWWA, Macao, Ms. Manduriaga is now a certified trainer and chef. She now gives back by helping and sharing her skills in training other Filipinos in Macao.
