Dear DFA, 

Thank you for your response and positive action. I would like to sincerely follow up the requested data.  

Thank you once again.

Dear DFA, Thank you for your previous response and your willingness to help me with my thesis. I am writing again to clarify my request, just in case. I plan to analyze the impacts of OFW labor migration by examining the OFW cases received by your kind office and OWWA. This will help my thesis study the micro and macro level effects of labor migration in the country of origin (Philippines) and country of destination with a gender perspective. It will also be beneficial to see the solved cases by our government. Hope this clarifies my request. Should there by any concerns, please let me know. 

Thank you very much!
