Hello,

I am writing to request access to the dataset covering the period from 1990 to 2023, focusing on Overseas Filipino Workers (OFW). I intend to utilize this dataset for research purposes, specifically to perform a comparison with the Pakistani diaspora.

Thank you in advance for your assistance.
