Chinese migrants/registered workers (temporary, permanent)

Requested from BI by R. ROBLES at 07:56 PM on Aug 06, 2018.
Purpose: research for article I am writing
Date of Coverage: 01/28/2010 - 07/01/2018
Tracking no: #BI-262382082827

ROBLES 07:56 PM, Aug 06, 2018 

Hi, 

I would like to request for information about the influx of Chinese workers/migrants in the Philippines since 2010 for a story I am writing on the new wave of Chinese migration to the Philippines. 

I saw there were two previous requests of this nature with  tracking numbers: 
#BI-323384745059
#BI-414401200558

I saw that the second request submitted by RJ Aguirre was successful and that the Alien Registration Division (ARD) officer actually sent by e-mail the data requested by RJ Aguirre on July 30, 2018. 
I would like to obtain exactly the same data, please.
